Giantex 5 FT Wooden Garden Bridge, Classic Wood Arc Footbridge with Railings, 400 lbs Capacity, Decorative Pond Bridge for Outdoor Garden Yard Backyard Creek Farm (Natural)

THIS IS QUITE NICE! I BOUGHT IT TO USE FOR A DRY CREEK BED SO FAR IT LOOKS WONDERFUL! IT WAS PRETTY EASY TO PUT TOGETHER! I HAVE CROSSED OVER IT AND IT WORKS NICELY! IT'S STONG AND BUILT GOOD! MY ONLY PROBLEM IS I SHOULD HAVE BOUGHT A LARGER ON! IT WORKS FOR NOW! LOOKS BEAUTIFUL! CAN'T WAIT UNTIL I GET EVERYTHING ALL FINISHED AND ADD MY KOI FISH TOO TOP IT OFF!

Totally love this bridge. Looks amazing.

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.

Love it

All the parts are splintered and when trying to screw them in the wood is cracking. We are not screwing it hard but is just very very low quality. Once water gets in all the cracks and raw wood it will rotten. Also, the slats that make the floor do not fit correctly so we had to file a few of them and the last one in particular. We are done assembling it and is so wobbly that my 6 year old is scared of walking on it. Very disappointed on the quality, not sure how anyone can leave a positive review, ours is definitely going in the trash.

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.

Just what we needed for a bridge from our shoreline to our wharf/dock. Like other assembly projects, loosely assemble parts before tightening down. For ex. the cross slats between the upright posts CANNOT be pushed in all the way into the slots in the uprights. If you do that, the upright posts will not align with the predrilled bolt holes. When you start laying the deck boards, install the three shorter boards that go between the upright posts first. Then, lay out the longer boards and check for spacing. You CAN'T push the boards up tight against each other or you will be left with a gap. I also predrilled the holes in the 'undersupports' before screwing in the deck boards: space your boards, then hold the one you are ready to screw in, drill a hold using a bit that's half the size of the screw, then go back and put in the screws for that board. I always started with the center two holes. Also be sure to check the end alignment at end side so you don't end up with uneven edges. I probably will spray this with a heavy duty outdoor sealant before putting out for the season. Also bear in mind that the width in the specifications includes the width of the upright posts.

The slats on the bridge are specific to the posts, make sure you line them up as perfect as possible so you aren't resetting boards later. Well made, easy to put together( just takes time) solid. I love my little garden. Fyi: use the gloves for handling boards as they are not wiped off well from staining
