I was pleasantly surprised at how well thought out this little greenhouse is. It went together well, I did it alone, though a second person would speed things up! I like the dual straps for tying up the doors and screens separately. Looking forward to several years of enjoyment and growing!
The cover is really sturdy. The velcro on the windows is sturdy and the windows close up very nicely. The metal frame was not quite as sturdy as I would have liked. Though I intend to take the cover off for winter, I plan to leave the frame up so I painted it with rust-oleum paint which made the frame more rust resistant and I believe sturdier.
Once it's up.. it's quite amazing.. I especially like the versatility with the door/screen and door vent all able to operate independently of eachother.. the hardware could use washers so as not to drive the nylons nuts into the bars so easily which I did and upgrading the tie-down ropes and stakes is recommended.. I am quite happy with the results..
Once you actually get the thing up, it's worth the budget price. However, it is an absolutely PAIN in the BUTT to set up!! I add some wood to make it all hold up and last longer.
It works perfect for my needs. Living in Florida airflow is a necessity. I secured the bas to wood. I need 2 more but the price increased so I'll wait.
This is our second one! We loved the first one so much! We did have to purchase rebar candy cane shaped stakes so it would not blow away, we live where it is very windy. This greenhouse is sturdy and large! We have already filled it with 25 planter boxes and hanging planters. We are looking forward to getting this second one set up next Spring to expand our gardens!
