I've had this greenhouse about 8 months. It started out great. Reasonable quality for 100.00. Then after about 2 months the strings that hold the windows and door up got sun rotted and they tore off of the plastic. After 8 months of use the zippers are splitting and the plastic around the zippers is starting to tear. So if you're wanting to try your hand at having a greenhouse and you're not wanting to spend 2k right off then this will work. Just don't expect to use it long term. I've considered recovering it with new plastic but that doesn't seem cost effective when that will cost more than the greenhouse did to begin with.
I bought this for starting my seedlings this spring. It easily hold 12 flats on the shelves (BTW, turn them upside down and fasten to the shelf support, keeps the flats on them in wind). There's plenty of floor space to move or store items and for my purposes it's very sturdy. We are still having outside temps in the low thirty's and high twenties, but it is super easy to heat with a small, cheap ceramic heater
The canopy was more durable than I expected. I love how there's extra canopy at the bottom for added support. I used cinder blocks to hold it down better. We've had 50mph gusts over the last week and you couldn't tell. The only thing I'd like to see different is better instructions. There was a poor quality picture with tiny letters that were really hard to see. We figured it out but set up would've been easier with better instructions.
This is perfect for a starter greenhouse. The hubby is a DIYer. He built a base and secured it with clamps. Added Velcro to the base. We just had 60 mile an hour winds yesterday and had no issues. Love this new hobby
Easy to put together. Only needed help with the covering. I zip tied down the shelves. It is tied to the fence so hopefully it won't blow over. It was low 50's out when I was putting it together and after an hour it was 10 to 15 degrees warmer in side. I plan on getting a small cheap thermostat to keep track. Will work good for seedlings and tomatoes!
This is smaller than I expected, but big enough for our needs. It stays nice and warm, as expected for a greenhouse. The instructions werent very good, but still easy to figure out and put together. We did have some damage, but the company was super helpful. They responded the same day, and promptly sent a replacement. Excellent customer service!
Very easy to assemble, sturdiness- we live In S. Georgia and with this crazy freezing weather we've been having lately early March this lil green house has definitely been put to a test! Still standing-my husband not only tied it down but also put sand around the sides. I still didnt take the chance on ruining my babies ( tomato plants) : ) so I brought them inside when it got below (freezing) 25-30 crazy!! Overall we love it and would recommend it
I'd like to have a bigger greenhouse. This is fine for now. I dislike the thin material the shell is made from. I'd like to see a more sturdy material used for frosty nights.
Great for the price. Easy assembly drawings. Keeps everything pretty warm at night. I added an electric heater when it got too cold and it kept the heat in.

Good Starter Greenhouse but Started to Fall Apart After Months

No regrets buying!

Durable, sturdy, better than expected.

Sturdy and perfect size

Happy so far!!

Very impressed
Just needed a temporary greenhouse for this year. It was easy to put together and has held up pretty well. Great price, would recommend.
