It is a very nice system and looks good. If you are not going to buy cedar, measure the pressure treated stuff before you use it. It will likely be too large for the Toja Grid brackets. You will save a lot of work, if you get the right wood.

The toja grid system is great, but you will need to trim down the ends if you use cedar. We fitted it with pressure treated first and they fit perfectly. Changed last minute and forgot to refit it turned out great though. My only negative feedback is for the straps of the shades. The clasps are small and plastic. The straps also are not sewn at the ends to keep them from coming out of the clasps. So in a strong wind, they come undone and you have to get on a ladder to reattach. All in all though, we are extremely happy with our purchase!

Love the product. Works great. Only issue I had was with the screws. They were really fragile and stripped out easy. Picked up some other screws and it worked out fine.

Toja grid 4x4 system review - This system would be a solid 5 if only the screws were of quality and provided extra. This system is not "cheap", it is of quality. It isn't too hard though you do need 3 to 4 people and fairly strong depending on the size of your pergola. The price isn't "cheap" either, and as mentioned before it would suit Toja to put extra screws and perhaps use a black finish instead of caps which were popping off like crazy. The screws can be used with both philips and robertson screw heads - however they strip fairly easilly and literally not 1 extra screw is provided. I dropped one between my deck boards. I had to go to grab extra screws. Seriously extra screws in the package and spend the extra 1cent per screw and get them of harder metal.

The ends of every 4x4 post had to be sanded otherwise they did not fit inside the brackets. The incorrect cover was included in the kit (the box was marked correctly). Contacted Customer Service and after they reviewed the photos we sent, they are sending the correct size and I will return the wrong size (postage paid by the company). Didn't take into consideration that the brackets add to the width and length, so it will just barely fit on the deck. Until this project is completely finished, we would recommend to others, but with reservations.

I was very happy with the product. It was very easy to put together. I feel however that there are a few pieces that could be added to the product to give a few more choices. However I would definitely refer this product. Prices are a bit too high, and could be lowered in the Kits. I will post pictures once available.

Bonjour,
Dans l'ensemble je suis satisfait du produit.
Sauf pour trois items.
Deux items qui ne sont pas de la même couleur que les autres.
Un autre item qui aune mauvaise soudure.

My pergola came out great. I would have given a 5 star, except the brackets were cut to near exact size of the 4x4 posts, and were just slightly too tight. It took me and three large teen boys to lift and install the entire system. Also took about 3 hours. I love the outcome.
