great design and price. easy to install

Easy to install

My purchased Milano Gazebo looks attractive, well made & seems quite sturdy following its installation to suitable concrete pads, for its posts.
The only thing my installer noticed, was that the included plastic caps, (to cover bolt & nut ends), will need to be siliconed in place, as the bolt length is just a small amount too long, causing them to be loose or fall off.

All good, it nicely done with my 2 friends.

The product itself is great. However the instructions did require some thinking outside the square as it was at times not to clear……. Otherwise it was just what I was looking for in size and height plus the colour in fact. 🙂

The only thing I felt was a little disappointing was the delivery fee which was a bit excessive being honest with you.

Goes together well, everything supplied and fits perfectly. Get a friend to help & don’t rush! The Gazebo is much sturdier than it appears in the brochure

Purchased from Tip Top Yards, was delivered really quick, the shed was very easy to put together, the instruction manual has got to be one of the best going around as it is very detailed and all parts are numbered. High quality materials and experienced no issues. Would highly recommend.

The patio cover is great. Easy to put together, but the instructions were not good. We got a 7.3m cover which consists of 3m + 4.25m + Link kit. The instructions are all separate, not integrated properly, so there are things that you need to undo after you've done them. There's no info on how to integrate the 2 sets so that makes it more difficult. Otherwise, it works well. The gutters are pretty shallow and overflow in heavy rain, otherwise no problem.

Frame is robust and very well made (5 out of 5)
Assembled within 1 day with the help of 2 kids, to put the one leg on then did the rest myself.
Instructions were clear (also watched a few videos on you tube), but quite an involved (not complicated) process. Took a bit out of me on a hot day.

Specs: "Virtually unbreakable 6 mm twin-wall polycarbonate roof panels are high impact and shatter resistant"

While the roof material is 6 mm, it's not solid (twin-wall) with air in the middle, but feels extremely flimsy... so fingers crossed. The roof cap is also very thin plastic, so time will tell, how well the product handles the Australian Sun.

Other than a potentially unfounded concern of the roof would rate as 5 stars.

Purchased as a cover for a swim spa, and does the job perfectly and looks amazing, family is very happy.

This is a brilliant product. It transformed our backyard. Delivery came as stated. Everything was packed well. All the parts were marked and perfectly corresponded to the instructions. It was very easy to install and seems really solid.

Have had multiple compliments towards the quality of the carport

Very happy with the purchase.

Great quality, very handy for the shade. Does slide down a bit in the wind so a little catch would be good but a good product.

Modern patio with a great clear roof. Clear instructions to put up and very solid once up. Very happy with it.

Very nice fit

Not had time to fully unpack netting set, but feel and look is of a good quality. Once i have installed net sytem this weekend, i will update on quality, fit, durability, but so far 4 stars.

Nice looking carport but the utmost care should be taken when drilling holes for screws that should be aligned and also when packing the materials that should be checked for broken parts, scratches and dents which prolonged the installation cause we waited for parts to be delivered.

Great price, great product, easy to erect and instal

Great product , easy to install

Kit arrived without any worries and was pretty straight forward to assemble once you put in your footings. Took an afternoon to put up. If I were to start again I'd of bought a longer handled rubber mallet. Also used Ramset anchor screws to fix off against the house instead of the supplied.

Fantastic and exactly as presented.

Easy to follow instructions chord together well, sturdy. We have used it as a pool shade structure. A few days after installing a severe storm including strong winds and hail passed through but shade structure weathered it easily.

The netting curtains look good and easy to install. I will get a curtain chain to thread through the bottom to weigh it down in the wind.

The assembled carport is a very elegant structure and looks just like the photo. However it was lucky that we had the help of a tradie type friend who did most of the installation and could do the drilling that was required. As a suggestion - you could offer an installation service as an optional extra because this kit really needs a more experienced installer.

Very satisfied, great product, easy instructions and prompt delivery.

This product is amazingly designed. It is super lightweight, but also very strong. it is adjustable so if you have to move one of the posts due to an obstruction you can, and looks great. Highly recommend

Good product but thought clear sheeting/perspex was frosted.

Great size, easy to install and looks great. withstood recent storms in SE Qld.

It's great and easy and satisfying to install with the right help and tools

Great product. recommended

Very pleased with product and ease of assembly.

As yet we haven't installed either of the carports. We're still in the process of digging the holes for the concrete foundations. It will be a few weekends before one of them will be up.

Product was better than expected and instructions for assembly were comprehensive, finished product looks great

Purchased two of the Arizona Wave 5000 Carport Kits.
I'd like to thank Lauren for organising a quick and easy delivery and also Dave, the delivery guy. Dave called early on the delivery day and was at our home within 30mins, we live in Raymond Terrace. He helped us unload- in the wind and pouring rain, and then helped us carry the kits to where we wanted them temporarily stored. Thank you both for a professional job.

Real easy to follow instructions to assemble. Looks really good and seems quite sturdy. Only issue is that the caps for covering the screws don’t all fit and some have fallen off.

What was advertised looks good

Looks amazing and very easy to assemble

very good product

Palram Arizona 5000 Wave Cantilevered Carport
I was really surprised on the good quality and solidness of the kit. Delivery was quick and no parts were missing.
Took me a while as I had to modify the posts to suit a 12degree driveway slope (modified top of the posts to suit slope and added three tie wires to keep roof square), a great project to complete, looks great, so top marks from me…

Excellent product

This was supplied in kit form cheaper than I could buy the materials from Bunnings

Looks good for this price - hasn't yet been constructed but I researched the Palram brand and it rates highly.

Great gazebo once it's erected but quite difficult and time consuming to erect.

Curtains were more than what i expected. Good quality.

Excellent product screaming out for a YouTube 'How to' video. The instructions could be better.

Fantastic informative service & great products.

Great carport, looks fabulous so I purchased another...

Great carport that was easily assembled.

Love it

Kit fitted together perfectly. Delivered to door for less than cost at Bunnings.

Eccellent

Excellent

Quality built carport with a very clear instructions manual to follow if you like to DIY installation. I would consider buying another one soon.

Excellent purchase - good instructions and delighted with the finished product.

Was more rigid than I was expecting

Really happy with the product. Real value for money.

Great product, very solid and perfect for our deck. We built it in just over a day - but it would be much easier second time around ... isn't it always? The instructions were much better than most but there were still a couple of steps that we mucked up and had to re-do. It also would have helped to have some guidelines or suggestions about how to fit down pipes

Stronger than I thought it would be.

Good, 1 part arrived missing 4 holes which had to be drilled on site, otherwise fine

Overall I was extremely happy with my purchase, price and setup. And I might add it looks fantastic!

Easy to assemble with detailed instructions

Sunroom seems great, have completely finished construction.

Happy with the product but way too expensive

Simple to build looks great

It was a good size for the area I had set aside for it.

sturdy, nice looking gazebo

It fit the space exactly. It was high quality and well priced

We were looking at Bunnings, initially, and decided to look further afield when we found the TipTop Yard website. Here we found exactly what we were after.

To go over my front timber doors

Suited our requirements

I am very happy with your product. The attraction for for me was the fact that it was adjustable as I had constraints about where I wanted it to fit. The adjustment of the posts both sideways and depth wise were enough that I thought I could fit it in my available space (I've worked as an Aeronautical Engineer all my life so I figured I could "make it fit" given the dimensions available). I had no problems erecting the structure. The hardest job was drilling the holes through the brick pavers into the concrete slab beneath, but that is not related to to the product.
The quality is excellent, and the value is good. Bunnings stock this item for ~$1500 but only in white (sigh ;) ), and I wanted grey. I found 4 websites selling this, but for three of them it was either out of stock or discontinued. Such is the limited choice in Australia due to the small market. Your website advised to call first to check stock, which I did, and you had two left, one of which I bought.
The only problem I had was with the roof panels. I followed the diagrams in the installation instructions initially and had problems with the end panels which kept "popping up" at the outer corners. I then reread the installation instructions (as an engineer does), which said to start installing the roof panels from the middle (different to the diagrams). I then took off all the roof panels and installed them again from the middle outwards. I still ended up with a problem of a panel "popping up" at one front corner. I manufactured a packer and played with the fastening of the beam that the roof panel connected to, and it has been OK for a few weeks now. The problem (the engineer in me is speaking here) is that as more roof panels are added, they are 'tensioned' and apply greater tension to adjacent panels. This induces the roof beams that they connect to to twist, which results in the formed edges of the roof panels being unable to clip into the top of the beams properly.
I am fortunate in having an engineering background which enables me to solve problems I come across, but I suspect the average handyman would struggle a bit with this product.
All that said, I'm very happy with the product. It's just what I wanted.
