Rowlinson Latina Canopy

A good looking, nicely proportioned and lightweight but relatively robust product (altho no high winds yet). As other reviewers have said the instructions could be much improved, including the labelling of parts to ease assembly. I did have to disassemble some parts twice as some lengths fit nicely altho they aren't correct (and that wasn't shown clear enough in the plans), and reassemble appropriately. No extra drilling was required. Generally taking my time, with some rework, I have been able to put it up single handed with a 5 minute help to hold the posts up while I completed the self supporting joins, in about 5 man hours. The warm weather and no wind helped enormously. The trickiest aspect was sliding the rods into the canopy as the rings from the sliding joists were very tight.Overall I enjoyed putting it together, not too frustrated, and I'm pleased with the result which is great in the current heatwave. The most disappointing aspect was the carrier who held the delivery for 5 extra days as there wasn't a delivery to my area.

You need to know a little bit about putting flatpack together but once completed it’s amazing.Will fix correctly to the patio in a few days. With bolts supplied.Follow instructions take your time get it right if it doesn’t look like the pictures your doing it wrong.VERY PLEASED.Now fixed it to the patio with bolts supplied!Could not be happier!Have brought an outdoor curtain for the back to allow a little more protection! Will update with pictures once fitted.Ssdgm.

I love the product but so disappointed that we can’t buy a replacement canopy rendering product useless. We’ve always taken ours down and stored carefully in the winter but it’s now wearing and holes appearing. Other brands offer replacements. Won’t be buying anything from Rowlinson again. I note they’re still selling this gazebo!! Will have to pay the full cost of buying a whole new gazebo.

Great, read reviews and was a bit put off but decided that it was what we really wanted and ordered. It's not that difficult to put together sections can be made up by one person and we only had the two of us to put it up more people would make it easier. We took about 3 hours. Purchased early summer and has seen wind and rain had no issues looks and works as described. ( our canopy is a dark beige )

An absolutely brilliant concept, SWMBO was very impressed and thinks it is wonderful. the only downside was the instructions, I coped but they could be better.

It took me 7 hours to erect on my own and the only problem was some of the holes didn't line up. However, a quick drill sorted this.

Great idea, instructions are a pain to digest & make sense off. Not sure where drainage holes are in the canopy though as mine fills with water

Eventually got it assembled, took 2 attempts, instruction not very informative
