Here is ours, It is the second gazebo we put up in this area. This one is about a year old now I picked it up towards the end of last summer.
The first one held up for several years. Ours was done over several years. First year we put down the RRTies and bolted the gazebo to them. Then we added the bricks a year or so later and the outer brick and corner beds were added after that. If you want it to hold up you need to fasten it to the ground very well or a good wind storm will pull them up and destroy them. We let the first one up all year round and just pulled the canvas top and curtain sides in the winter. It wasn't very expensive and we did replace the canvas top once. We also had some rust issues but it held up pretty good. Last year it was damaged in a wind storm the second canvas top was badly torn and a few of the rusted areas broke. Ric fixed the damage and I resewed the top until we found a new replacement at a very good cost. Last winter we took the whole gazebo down and stored it for the winter. This one is very easy to put up and down. I love the look of the canvas top gazebos but when we have to replace this one I might let Ric just build me one.
