Construction is not easy

I am still working to assemble this product, as the instructions are not easy to follow and you will end up re-doing certain sections. After about 7 hours of construction time, I had my husband, who is a carpenter, help me and he got so frustrated we had to stop. Finally enlisted my son, and between the three of us we were finally able to get the majority of it done in about 3 hours. We only have a bit more to do now, but the key is to have at least two people and both will need to have patience. you will need to reinforce the panels as they are not real sturdy, but I believe once reinforced they will be fine. It is nice and roomy.

This is a very nice greenhouse, but wish the nits and bolots would have been stainless, because they are rusting, and the door does not make a good seal, but I fixed that by adding some weather stripping, now the door seals well. The directions seem to be written out of order, so if you are just buying this, when it comes to dropping the bolts in the slots, look a couple pictures ahead, otherwise you have to take stuff apart. Other than that it is perfect size for all of my lemon and lime trees.
Mark windows, seal panel seams, needs base, build inside unless completed in one day

Do not leave unassembled pieces in the sun for days- the indentifying labels will wash clean in sun and rain extremely fast. Early in instructions, it fails to specify that a bolt will need to be slid inside the track of a piece, then fanagled into bolt hole (for greenhouse corners right after base assembly). It shows this in much later steps. Also when installing the middle brace in roof that the vent window will share- an extra bolt needs to be added to the middle track. My instructions failed to specify. If you dont do it, you will need to figure out a way to help hold vent window brace or take apart half the roof. Do NOT assemble outside unless you can finish and seal panels in one day! MUST seal the window panel seams afterwards. Once you install a window panel, do yourself a favor and permanently mark a tiny X on the inside of each of them. If anything happens and you need to figure out what side is inside and which is out, this will save you much torment. Needs a base as it sits one corner stilts. With all this, I still think its a cute nice greenhouse for the money. If you dont seal the seams on the panel and secure this to a base, you will most likely throw your money away the first season of use

I bought this about a month ago after researching greenhouses for several weeks. I liked this one because of the price and reviews. I LOVE it. It looks great and the quality is better than I expected. It was also much easier to assemble than I expected after reading reviews. It's not as hard as folks make it sound. At first I was unimpressed with the polycarbonate "glass" panels (they look like etched glass, but feel like bubble wrap material), but now after its been out through good and bad weather, it held up very nicely.When I got to the end, I found that I was missing a small part (roof panel separator) which I probably misplaced in my messy garage. I emailed Aosom, and they responded WITHIN 1 HOUR! They offered to send it by FED-EX for FREE! I was really impressed.I RARELY (if ever) write reviews, but their customer support won me over. They deserve a special shout out for being so responsive and helpful.
