Does putting this on your existing concrete slab requires getting a permit?

In California no permit is required for a gazebo as long as it doesn't have walls

How is this anchored with brick pavers (like it's shown in the picture).

You can drill pad and use lag anchors and bolts that's what I did then fill pillars as needed with River rock. That's what I did before for an aluminum gazebo from Costco ten years ago. Not sure how heavy this one is my other one was light.

LOL just screw some wheels to and it becomes "portable" which doesn't require a permit.

Buy now and get price adjustments or buy/return later in the season.

I have the larger version of this, I believe I got for $1600 ($1899-$299 coupon) around May of last year. I watched the price and over the course of the summer wound up getting a PA, a buy/return and another PA to bring my final OTD price to about $1000. Did the same with a playscape - wound up paying about $600 which is around half price, by the time all was said and done (and they're selling the same one this year too).

These aren't bad to put together. The roof is the biggest PITA with about a million screws. The protective plastic is a hassle to take off the roof without slicing your arms open with the razor sharp aluminum panels. My 12 year old daughter and I put everything together ourselves - then I had a couple other people help put the roof panels on. Probably took an entire day if we did it in one day.

My biggest tip with these type of projects is to take everything out of the boxes, pair like pieces, lay it out so you can find things and use a huge tray (I used old commercial cookie trays) to lay out the hardware and keep track of it. Then, one person is the ferret that goes and finds pieces and hardware for the NEXT step of assembly while one or 2 other people work on the actual assembly/nuts&bolts. This method worked very well and kept the work moving along.

This is a great deal I built one 3 years ago .. requires atleast 2 people but 4 make it a lot easier .. also if you are putting it on lawn make sure you pour concrete footings for the cement anchors

Is the support beams hollow or solid? Does it do well against wind loads? Wonder if I need to add weight to the supports for wind loads assuming no.

I have put this and similar ones together. Support beams are solid and entire unit is very heavy. Mine is sitting on a pavered backyard with no anchors because of the weight. You can anchor it down through tabs before you add on the molding around the base. But believe me, these solid wood gazebos are very heavy and mine has stood up to a few Nor'easters in the northeast with no issues. Took me a weekend to complete the last one with some help from my teenage son, especially on the roof part.

Thanks for sharing! I will be installing on pavers too. Do you think there should be some kind of raised slab between the paver and wood legs? Concern is the wood base that's in contact with the pavers will rot from water. Thoughts?

I just purchased and installed the grand gazebo from Costco warehouse 12 x 14 on pavers in my backyard last week. We did not anchor. You definitely do not need raised slabs. There is decorative wood around all the posts.

Some real bad reviews about missing parts, uneven or holes not matching, bent roof pieces and more... How was your experience?

You have to below the pavers, but some people will remove the stones around the support and will put cement base if there isn't one. Most pavers will have cement base under the sand. Do NOT anchor it to pavers.
