Each brand's details come from its own website (see sources below), checked on 10 November 2026. We compare each brand's published model closest to a gazebo seating six to ten people, with the Crown Guinevere (3.1m, seats 7 to 10). "Not published" means we could not find it on the brand's website; we have not guessed. Specifications and prices change, so check with each brand before you buy. Crown prices are RRP for the Premium Package. See our gazebo cost guide for every Crown model.
