I have had these bridges for a few months now. They held up well so far. However, they kind of sag in the middle. I had to add extra support boards to the bottom. I love these bridges though! Adds that little extra to our yard.

No problem putting bridge together. Kit saved a lot of time. This was a gift, so important it fit in our SUV, my husband and I could lift it, yet bridge could hold our weight. Sprayed painted with gloss red spray paint.

I have been receiving plenty compliments from my neighbors.I'm not sure if it withstand 400 lbs. I'm not going to put it the test either. Easy to put together, make sure all three middle sections are equal. If not the screws will not line up to go in them.

Yes the picture is taken in the dead of winter, but here it is. The kit came with all of the pre-cut wood and hardware. Paint or stain not included. As I want this to be weather proof I sanded the wood and once assembles applied two coats of Chinese red stain, and two coats of exterior sealer. It is a perfect little lawn ornament, but I would certainly not recommend walking across it as an adult. Little ones and pets help yourselves. Assembly was straight forward and took just a couple of hours, aside from the finishing, Neighbours liked it so much they ordered a larger one.

I like the look but it was pain to assemble and parts were cracking with the screws. The staining was coming off with handling of the pieces. I am afraid to step on it.

We purchased this to put over a small drainage ditch on our property. I was able to put it together in a few hours (45 yo woman) with a cordless drill. I sorted all the pieces first and all were there. The wood did stain my hands while I was handling it but was easily washed off. I did get splinters however. I had read the reviews prior to purchase and followed the advice given to attach the posts to the bottom supports first prior to fastening the cross rails. Once it was assembled on my deck I walked over it and it supported my weight (200 lbs) no problem. My husband walked over it as well (350 lbs) no issue. When we placed it over the dip however we could hear the wood being stressed when he walked over it. We placed concrete pavers under the three support beams and we can now walk across no problem. It was a good purchase for us.

Very small cheap screws kept breaking. More of a garden piece than anything

It was a hard work to put together alone but it was easy to follow the graphics to assemble. It turned out to be a very cute bridge than I imagined before assembling. I added a solar lights for the night and my puppy loves sitting on the bridge whenever he goes out. I love the looks of it and the quality of the wood as well. As I mentioned, it is a very cute and a lovely little bridge for my backyard. It makes me happy when I walk over the bridge and it was a very good decision to have one. Thanks

Just finished it! Looks pretty. We walked on it and realized someone will get hurt very badly when it collapses completely under their weight. It was assembled properly. The wood I received is very soft and the holes for the bolts for the bridge main supports were not drilled correctly by the manufacturer so the frame doesn't assemble securely. As soon as it was walked on, the middle arch sank down! Very poor quality. Due to the softness of the wood, my reinforcing the frame with steel straps can't salvage it. This bridge will be used for firewood! Don't buy. (P.S. I had a previous bridge of the same design and it lasted 8 years).

With the exception of the 8 arched railings, which 2 split since they are so thin, the bridge is quite sturdy. Just be aware, it's not that easy to put it together so that everything is level and fits together. For one thing, I didn't follow the first step to assemble the arched railings to the six posts, because the posts and railings didn't line up. I had to disassemble the arched railings and take out the screws and to first assemble the six posts to the outside two frames and just place, the arched railings into the slots on the posts, WITHOUT nailing them. Once the posts were screwed into the two outside bases, ONLY then did I screw the railings into the posts. Hope this helps. Also, it makes life much easier if you have two people assemble the bridge. Finally, if you have a sore back, (like me), beware that you need to screw about 170 screws to assemble the floor of the bridge to the three bases. You might want to do it in two different time periods.

I am creating a small zen garden and wanted a bridge as one of the elements. I looked at several in this price range and couldn't see a compelling reason to buy one of the higher priced bridges. My husband assembled the bridge in about 2 hours and found all parts and pieces were provided and good quality. Upon completion, the bridge is perfect and surprisingly sturdy. We are going to spray with an enamel clear coat to help protect the wood from our blazing desert sun, but other than that, the finish on the wood is attractive and adequate. This will be the main focal point in my zen garden along with a bamboo fountain, a few plants, small pagoda and of course a Buddha. Thanks for providing a quality and affordable product.Update...have had this sweet little bridge for nearly a year. It has held up beautifully in the sun, cold, wind, etc. My husband painted it in a zen color scheme and it is the centerpiece of our zen garden. We receive compliments regularly.

Cute bridge. Built it in about 2.5 hours. The length of time is mostly due to the fact that all of the hardware is in one pouch and mixed. So do yourself a favor and dump it all out and spend the 30 minutes sorting through it all and getting everything matched. It will make the rest of your time easier. The directions are very basic and you'll have to go mostly by the picture, but if you take your time it should be pretty straight forward... Especially if you pre sort the hardware! The wood is good, and the pre drilled holes help a lot, but the are still a ton of screws to put in so use the foam you get in the box to put under your knees because you'll be in them for an hour puttin the planks in. Dry fit everything first! Make sure it looks right. Then add screws. Its stained nicely but I took the time to give it a heavy coat of clear poly to help protect it from weather.... Something I would highly advise even if you live in a dry place. All in all, for under 100$, totally worth it.
