If you look at that pic I posted, you'll see a tree on the left (East) and the branches of another on the right. Shade isn't a problem but rain... yeah that's when it'll most likely be closed. That motor system, from what I can figure, adds about $2000 to the price of the thing and I just don't see using it that often. Plus my concern is that it becomes a potential source of problems in the future. My primary reason for wanting the pergola with adjustable louvers is just in case we have a large gathering and everyone couldn't fit under the 23x14 roof area. The pergola will add another 18x12 of covered area if I go with the aluminum one.
