We are already midway through summer, but temperatures are continuing to heat up around the country, which means adding shade to your patio space is essential to keeping it comfortable. If a small umbrella isn’t enough to cover your outdoor furniture, consider an awning or gazebo while Walmart is offering great deals on popular picks.

The Aecojoy Hardtop Aluminum Pergola usually retails for $1,100, and right now, the 10-foot by 14-foot option is on sale for only $480. That’s over $600 in savings, plus it’s eligible for free shipping and can arrive as soon as next week if you order now.

Although this size is versatile and great for many outdoor spaces, there are also five other sizes to choose from at various price points that are also heavily discounted. We suggest taking measurements of your desired area before making a selection to ensure it’ll meet your needs.

This awning is made using a powder-coated aluminum frame for durability and features a PP Panel canopy roof that provides ample amounts of shade. It’s water-resistant and covers up to 140 square feet. This design is also incredibly versatile as it can be used as a patio awning, a free-standing gazebo, or a pergola. Some shoppers even said it makes a great carport.

It does require assembly, but it comes with everything you need to set it up. Several shoppers claim that it’s “fairly easy to assemble,” especially with an extra set of hands for additional help. Once it’s all put together, shoppers describe it as “solid” and “well-made.”

“Well worth the price for functionality and durability,” one reviewer wrote. “If you need a sturdy, all-weather resistant, and semi-permanent patio cover, this is the one. The slanted roof helps keep snow from accumulating and because it fits right between the patio door and the eaves, does not leak. When secured to the house (with provided brackets) and the option to also secure to the ground or concrete, it is also very windproof.”

Elevate your outdoor space with the Aecojoy Hardtop Pergola while it’s on sale for only $480. After all, you can’t go wrong with relaxing in the shade on a hot summer day.
