PVC Arbor looks like wood but better! I’m a wood person who wanted a wood arbor in my Florida Landscape. I twisted my knee and the pain made me consider an alternative. My injury help me `think outside the box’ – to my `now’ benefit!Yes you need to assemble it and there are a lot of pieces but… I’m 75, painful twisted knee and my arthritis is killing me but I was out there putting it together by myself on an old blanket. Ladies you can do this; but a 2nd pair of hand from any sex will help the assembly when you start putting the large sections together. It is clumsy about 8 feet high but not restrictive to handle.I live in Florida where termites eat wood, so you are always spraying for bugs. Rot is a problem because we not only have a lot of sun, we have a lot of rain. Rain & shade brings black mold and scrubbing a wood arbor with soap & water is not something I enjoy, I’m a power sprayer type person! This smooth PVC structure will be easily cleaned (no repainting). If this arbor is like my fake white wicker PVC chairs at the pool, it will look nice for a very long time.I have looked at a lot of pre-built options and I don’t recommend metal. Looks too delicate, rust is a problem especially with salt air. I don’t like the plastic-flimsy of a lot of things but this is well made PVC. This arbor as a solid feel and look. I recommend this company’s product because of the quality and design.Good designed. For looks, it looks heavy and sturdy like wood. Makes a statement in the landscape! The top caps and ornamentation is excellent. Go to […] and you will find gates, install option, more; but my favorite is a Solar Keystone (the decoration at the top/center of the arch) which replaces the keystone that comes with the arbor. This alternative keystone’s top is the solar panel and the curve around the top section is a light. You can use just one on one side or two (one on each side arch). I think two may be overkill but maybe you want more light rather than accent lighting. As to the design of the arbor and fitting together, it was excellent. No sharp jagged ends, no sharp rough edges and a good thickness to the PVC. Everything fix well.If you want keystone mentioned above (in hind sight I do) but the arbor `snaps together’. Taking it apart to change the keystone may be difficult. (Don’t know). Besides I was too excited about it and didn’t want to wait for anymore pieces. Assembly is easy. No hammer, no saw, no nails and only about 16 screws to secure the top in the posts and the posts into wood &/or the PVC for cementing into the ground.Sound complicated? It is not. You arrange the pieces and then the final push, snaps and locks each piece into place. A nice interlocking design.My shipping box was damaged but one email and my replacements were immediately sent.The ad says “… no rotting, no staining, no cracking…” And it looks great. Shown it to a friend & neighbor. He had to walk up to it and feel. It was impressive. Not being one to accept a woman’s work, he could only say “do you think you can get vines to stick to it… it is so smooth?” I laughed and said, “heck, just a bit of string and tie it to the slats, just like any wood arbor”.I think this is something to consider. I have a wood pergola I built a couple of years ago. It needs paint again and that means up the ladder and drips on my cement below. They also have pergolas!Oh yes! I purchased it through my Amazon Prime. No shipping and got it in 2 to 3 days. Amazing!
Missing parts and instructions Arbor appears sturdy, but arrived without anchor stakes, without hardware and without instructions. Top of box appears to have been ripped open and re-taped. Likely damaged in transit.
