Price and rating as shown on Amazon when we collected them. Both change.

The Outsunny 3.6 x 4m Hardtop Gazebo Canopy sits at number eight in this guide, and on the surface it is the entry that matches the collection best: an aluminium-framed garden structure with a polycarbonate hardtop roof, four curtains with mesh screens, and 12 ground stakes in the box. Where the cheapest pick carries bullets written for a vinyl turntable and the £999 Backyard Discovery is cedar rather than aluminium, this one is what the listing says it is. What it cannot do is agree with itself on size. The product title says 3.6 x 4 m. The spec table says 4.2L x 3.6W x 2.75H metres. The item type name buried in the specs says 4.3 x 3.6 m. Three footprints, one gazebo.

The declared floor area makes it four numbers rather than three: 11.5 square metres, which matches none of the dimensions above — 4.2 x 3.6 m works out at 15.1 m². Priced at £799.99 with 4.4 out of 5 from 81 ratings, it costs £36 more than the cheapest pergola in the guide but rates higher than that one's 4.1. The listing also puts the structure at 107 kg, states that assembly is required, and adds the instruction that accumulated snow must be removed from the roof. Everything on this page is taken from the Amazon listing as it appears, not from any test we ran.
