We know a Costco win when we see one. And just in time for the long holiday weekend, when outdoor hangs are at their peak, Costco is bringing back one of this summer’s greatest hits: Sunvilla Stratus Pergola. When it was released this May, it sold out in just days. From what we can tell, the love for it is completely justified. At 10” by 13”, the fully covered outdoor lounging or dining space has a secret: With just the touch of a button, the battery-operated motorized roof shutters open and close to let sun and cool breezes in (or out).
It’s not just practical—the modern design makes it all the more appealing. The simple, sleek black frame blends into any style of backyard, allowing your greenery or pool to be the star of the show. Plus, a hidden gutter system means it works rain or shine—perfect for those random summer showers. (For what it’s worth, the roof is also winter safe for up to 20lbs of snow per foot of space, but we’re not going there mentally.)
All in, the pergola costs $2,399, and it essentially adds a shaded room to your outdoor entertaining area. Although it’s pictured with an outdoor sofa and chairs, we’d put a dining table underneath for al fresco dinner parties, meaning it’ll be a spot where you’ll want to hang out all day—and all night, too. For when that happens, the pergola also comes with built-in LEDs to light up all the late-night fun. Two batteries means the party never has to stop.
Curious what else is out there? We’ve rounded up more louvered roof pergolas worth bookmarking.
