MIRADOR 80S Louvered Pergola 10' x 20'
The only listing here that publishes its size honestly — Two hundred covered square feet of galvanised steel for less than the premium pick's 127, and the only pergola in this roundup whose published dimensions match its advertised size exactly. Its owner record is strong and its top complaint is the same seam leak as everyone else. The catch is commercial rather than physical: Amazon has suppressed its buy box.

Pros
- The only pergola in this field whose published Product Dimensions match its advertised size exactly — 120 by 240 inches, no shortfall on either axis, where PURPLE LEAF is nearly nine inches short
- Two hundred covered square feet, the largest here, at $8.75 per square foot — well under the premium pick's $15.49 and on a comparable owner rating
- Instructs owners to anchor with the supplied expansion bolts, which is more than most of this category says about the condition every load claim depends on
Cons
- Amazon has SUPPRESSED the buy box on this listing — it renders 'High price' and 'See All Buying Options' with no Add to Cart and no default seller, so there is no straightforward way to buy it as listed
- Publishes no wind rating and no snow load, only the assertion that it is designed to endure the seasons
- Its most-upvoted complaint by a wide margin is the same seam leak as the rest of the category, and an owner reports the maker switching some hardware to plastic over time
It is not leak proof. The most-upvoted critical review on the listing says anything heavier than a light drizzle drips through the slats, which is the same failure the rest of this category has. Separately an owner reports the maker substituting plastic for some of the hardware, and a wind complaint where opening the louvers before a storm did not help.

“We have 0 shade in our backyard. Saw something similar at Costco (same brand). Decided to do a little checking before we decided. This one is bigger and was less expensive. We find it very sturdy. We had horrible storms recently and it was not completely anchored yet. I opened the louvers to let the winds through.”— Scott B, Amazon · Verified Purchase
