Total Loss from Wind, Even Anchored

Three days after completion, a front went through with maximum gusts of 40 mph expected. The greenhouse is supposed to withstand 55 mph, if anchored. And it was anchored, to a treated 2 x 6 frame, which was screwed together and anchored into the ground. The greenhouse was screwed into the wood in every hole, about every foot or two. It didn't matter. The greenhouse is in a ball in my neighbors yard. Total loss. The wind was well below what this greenhouse was "supposed to" withstand. They shouldn't be allowed to sell this thing, and Sam's Club should vet their products better.

Great greenshouse for the money

This is a very sturdy greenhouse and was extremely easy to put together. My husband and I put it together in about 8 hours which includes building the base. I really liked that the instructions were mostly pictures which made it very easy to follow. We are actually thinking about purchasing a second greenhouse for next year. I would definitely recommend this greenhouse to anyone who is in the market for one.

Palram 6x8 Green House

The box came with a holes in it. Most of the hardware and small parts fell out during shipping. Some of the framing was damaged and bent. It was not Palram’s fault but the gorillas at FedEx who did not handle the box safely. I would have given it 5 stars but much of the parts were damaged because of handling in shipping. I called the company and they sent me all the parts that were damaged or missing in shipment by FedEx. They replied promptly by email. The instructions are all pictures but some written instruction would helpful. The 6 x 8 size seems very roomy. I will placed two sets of stacked shelves in there for my small pots and there is plenty of room to move in my big pots this winter. Overall it looks great and so far I love it.

Long warranty gives some peace of mind

The long warranty period immediately caught my eye while I was comparing options. It not only indicated the company's faith in their product but also gave me peace of mind. The assembly was a bit of a chore, but knowing that I'm covered for a long time made it all worth it.

Great design-works awesome.

I have had this greenhouse up for a couple of weeks now and it has been great. The kit is easy enough to put together but it has to be on a level base and everything has to be squared. Once you start you have to keep going until all the polycarbonate panels are locked in or else even a light wind can blow it apart. Once everything is in place, it is very stable. Mine has already withstood gale force winds and my wife has seedlings growing in it even tho there was frost on the ground in the morning. It gets quite warm and humid in there even on cooler days. If you're looking for a greenhouse, this is the one to get! You can't beat the price and the size is all we really need.

Good product, a bit hard to assemble alone

I have had the greenhouse for about 2 months now and I like it. The instructions are all pictures with practically no text. I assembled it alone over about three evenings due to nearly constant rain and wind and it took the equivalent of at least one full day under better conditions. Two people could probably do it in a half day. Allocate more time if you have to prepare a level base for the frame. I used 4x4 inch by 8 foot timbers. The frame is very flimsy and mobile while being assembled, but is plenty stiff when completed. The greenhouse does not retain heat more than a couple of degrees above the outside temperature at night since the frame is aluminum and the panels are very thin plastic and there is plenty of air movement through the structure. During the daytime with partial to full sun, the temperature inside can get 20 degrees F. above outside air temperature even with the vent and door open. If it lasts a few years it should be a good purchase for a casual gardener who needs a greenhouse.

Love this greenhouse!

When the box arrived I thought no way could all the pieces fit in there.....but they did. Everything arrived in good condition and there were plenty of extra screws and nuts. They also included a tool for tightening the nuts. We bought four 8' 4x4 treated posts which we cut to size and placed around the perimeter to form the base. We used angle braces to tie them together, then drove pieces of rebar 2 feet into the ground to hold it. So far we have not decided what to use for the floor but we will probably lay bricks since we happen to have a bunch. Later we screwed the greenhouse to this base and it seems very solid. We actually build the green house directly on the base which seemed to work out well. My husband, me, and two neighbors all worked on putting it together and it took us about 6 hours to just put the greenhouse together. This can be put together by one person but I think you need at least two. The instructions are all pictures, which worked fairly well, but there were a couple of places some written instruction would have helped. We had a little problem getting the door to fit right but after several adjustments, it seems to work fine now. The 6 x 8 size seems very roomy. I placed two sets of stacked shelves in there for my small pots and there is plenty of room to move in my big pots this winter. Overall it looks great and so far I love it.

Great Purchase!

I love it! I received the green version of this for Xmas from my husband. I laid a brick foundation and mounted it on top of 4 x 4's and anchored those to the ground. I had one of the little cheapo plastic green houses and it only lasted 2 seasons because of the wind. This is SOOOO much better! I wish it was a little more flexible, meaning easier to possibly take down in the summer and pout back up in the spring but I will get used to it. Instructions were pretty easy until I got to the triangle peaks. I think they should label the triangle panels so that you have the correct isosceles. I purchased the automatic window opener that keeps it at 80 degrees in 60 degree weather. Anxious to see how hot it will be in the summer. Excited to break it in this season!

Greenhouse Gives Vegetables a Boost

The vent window is large enough to provide decent ventilation.. Having a maintenance-free greenhouse has been a relief. The assembly system with sliding panels was straightforward. The aluminium frame and UV-protected panels have proven to be quite durable

does the job but so difficult to put together

After 2 days and cuts all over our hands we finally got the house together. We were determined. Ive seen similar houses for triple the price so I guess I got what I paid for. Make sure you tie it down because while we were putting it together 11mph winds swept it across the yard rolling!! Putting it together was such a horrible experience but now that its over I do love the greenhouse. Make sure you really pay attention to where you place it because moving it is not an option. The plastic panels are so difficult to get in and pop out for nothing. The directions can be vague but I found a video on youtube that helped me out. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x1mKeStGHFQ hope this helps!
