Featured review
I have no idea how this show got so many seasons. Every single episode is the exact same design: weird square building plopped somewhere in the yard, a pergola, glass panels, a fire pit, and a pizza oven (oh, and every few episodes they'll crap out a tree house). Every once in a while there will be a somewhat interesting design aspect; but for the most part, it's the same exact design re-explained as to why it will be ~*~PERFECT~*~ for the client. And the only creativity they try to implement on the show is always either something for a child that they'll grow out of within in a year or two (that would be incredibly expensive to replace) or some permanent or intrusive structure or feature that is personal and specific to the client that would make re-selling a house near impossible without additional construction to remove it.
Let's not forget the weird forced energy of the hosts. They mention they're best friends or something, but they have about as much on-screen chemistry as the cast of The Room. Which isn't surprising considering every 5 minutes they mention Wayfair which leads me to believe the company probably created this show for the sole purpose of selling their subpar furniture and just hired the first two pseudo-attractive wannabe actors soulless enough to take a $60,000 budget and turn it into $3000 worth of plywood patio furniture. Every "custom" structure can be found on the site and they act like they're geniuses for coming up with it (seriously, I took the time to check).
The only reason this gets two stars is because I'll give them this: the stonework is pretty and they do some fun things with it. But that's about it.
So if your goal is to re-do your backyard with only Wayfair items and you need some inspiration, this might be the show for you. But be warned, my sister got a Wayfair bed and she and her boyfriend broke it pretty quickly and they're both skinny as hell -- can't imagine how a playset would hold up. Might want to keep the bubble wrap.
