Dura-Trel Wellington Arbor 72" x 85" Outdoor Garden Trellis, White

My husband and son had this put together in an hour they said it was not hard and they did not use the instructions as it was easier for them just to put it together than use the instructions. Final product looks great it will be the focal point for the entrance to our walking trail/gun range, I’m going to plant a climbing roses to climb the arbor. Both my husband and son are appliance technicians so they are use to putting things together. Just buy it, great looking maintenance free arbor!!

Had to put this together, but it was not difficult and I'm not good at this sort of thing. It looks adorable on the lake front, with side by side flower pots . It has gone through wind storms and all kinds of weather and still looks like new. Love this Arbor and would not hesitate to purchase it again.

This arbor looks great once it's up. You'll definitely need two people to manage it. I put it together by myself up to the point of adding another side pole. The top piece can be put together by one person easy. You really don't have to glue the caps on the top slats because they fit very tightly. The biggest challenge is with the side pieces of the lattice. They fit very loosely and are difficult to keep in place while adding the poles on the side. So you have to add the lattice pieces to one side pole and then attach it all to the other side pole. The loose fitting lattice makes it difficult to use the pressure needed to attach it to the other side pole. They kept falling out of their sockets. Anchoring pieces were not that substantial. I opted to use a fence post repair kit instead. I saw it on YouTube and thought it was a better idea. The pieces are heavy metal and were twice as long and deep as the plastic pieces in the arbor kit. You have more versatility with this method. It helped me navigate around the cement poured for the previous arbor that was replaced. It's anchored by four screws on each post. Total construction will only take about will only take about 4 to 6 hours depending on how you manage it. I found it helpful to group The pieces by number before constructing it as the directions can be a little confusing. It's a low maintenance replacement for the old wooden arbor that was falling apart and needed repainting every year.

Nice arbor for the size, quality, and cost. I just received this, writing this only a day after installing it into the ground, so we'll see in time how it holds up over time. The packaging was solid, and the pieces were packed well. Some of the holes were a bit misaligned, but it wasn't an issue. The total time it took myself to build this was about 45 minutes. I dug four holes about a foot deep and did use the footings they provided, but I encased them in concrete for added stability - particularly for wind and rain. I also added a few small L-brackets to some of the sides so it doesn't sway simply because with plastic, it does and will move a bit. It might be easier for some folks to build this with two people due to its size more than the total weight. So far so good, and looks great in our yard!

Really nice arch for my patio

5/24/2026 – A year later, it still looks the same. After everything it has been through, it’s still standing strong (please refer to the video). 5/04/2025 - I don’t usually write reviews, but this garden arbor really deserves one. The quality is excellent and it’s absolutely worth the money. It was very easy to assemble, with everything fitting together just right. It looks stunning! I’m very impressed—it did not disappoint!

This came out really nice, albeit it took 2 off us over 3 hours to assemble. That includes custom modifications. The unit has a width of 72" which was the doorway, but I wanted it to be 100" to the end of the patio. I cut the 72" cross members, inserted a 2x4" in the center, and increased the width. I then ordered an extra 72" cross member to cover up the 2x4. I'll probably make some more of the top cross pieces out of 1x2 lumber and paint white. It is a little bit wobbly, I'm hoping the climbing vine will take care of that that we planted on either side to climb the arbor. It was also a little short, so we used the stakes to raise it by 8 inches.

Poorly made product. Cheap and flimsy. The company also does not care and will not stand behind their product. Impossible to put together by yourself and the instructions are not helpful. I would shop elsewhere. Not worth the money.

The arbor was excellent, easy to assemble

Not too bad to put together, even on my own. To complete the two sides, you definitely need bunji cords, to hold each end together, while you are inserting the interiors pieces. If you don’t do that, each time you try to add a piece, the other pieces pop out. The bunji cords allow the sides to stretch, with tension, and you can insert the other pieces. Just my experience today. The unit is beautiful and the pieces fit perfectly.

This arbor is absolutely beautiful - lots of compliments for sure. However, although the anchors go deep enough in the ground, they don't go high enough in the legs. For added stability and no swaying movements in high winds, the anchors should go as high in the legs as they do in the ground. Depending on where on your property you place this arbor, I recommend it.

Nice product description a little confusing
