LOVE this and Price was Inexpensive

Took a bit ling to put up...because we qznted it done right but well worth the time. Opted to buy a solar lever for the vent to open and close. Put some totes for raised beds and instant garden. No more insects or animal damage. A Bakers Rack made a potting counter. Wish I got it many years ago. Love!

Read all the directions before you start.

The time and effort put into the design is pretty impressive. As a carpenter, I was impressed with the thought process that went into the design. 90% of the bolts and nuts are the same size. The directions state that it will take two people about 6 hours, it my wife and I about 7 hours. This included the time it took to go thru and make sure all the parts were in the box. The intro in the directions says to read all of the directions before you start, trust me this is time well spent. We built a deck to place the house on, none of our property is very flat and I do not like concrete. No fasteners are provided for the attachment of the base frame, we used SDS screws to attach to the deck, it is best to get the base frame together, square it up and put a few fasteners in the corners and along the side to hold the base in place as you construct the house, the base is light and will move around if you do not. There are no written directions except on the first page. There you will find called out steps that need particular attention. When you are making your way thru the 50 plus steps, there will be an "i" icon that tells you to go read the special attention you need to be aware of for those steps. This thing comes in a 24" x 48" x 4" box, with no padding what so ever. Some of our roof polycarb panels slightly bent, which caused a few problems getting them to seat properly in the tracks they slide into. Some of wall panels were dented, which did not cause a construction problem, but do not look good. The box this stuff comes in is so compressed that the wall panels felt as if they would break when separating them, in hindsight, it may have been wise to take them inside and warm them up. The directions have blown up details to see how parts relate to each other, there are some connections you nearly have to guess at which added time to the build. You will find the gable ends, door and roof vent to be the most time consuming and frustrating. Once the house is finished, it is sturdier than it looks. Follow the directions closely and you should have no major issues.

Study-ish.

Basically a giant adult lego set. Went together fairly well, albeit slowly. Get a 10mm ratchet extension for your drill and make your life exponential easier.

Great family experience

I bought this greenhouse for my son who loves growing things, but it was a family event to put this together. We made this a family memory and will be part of our home for a long time. I am pleased with the quality of the final product for the price I paid. The 6 x 8 size is great for us. It does not take much space, but seems very large

It has great features

However I am giving 3 stars because the window needs a better hinge on it otherwise it will blow out with winds. Also the braces on the inside should be of better quality and thicker metal. It will function what I bought it for, but I think these things need to be improved upon. I will figure out a hinge to fix the window and get some better/heavier metal for the braces. I think it is a good for what i initially got it for, but would recommend these fixes.

Very time consuming and the panels are very flimsy

Very cheap panels. The side walls are about the same as the see thru disposable lids at a bakery. It is very time consuming to put together, even though I actually put it together inside my shop on a smooth concrete floor. The directions are decent for the most part, but there are a few areas that just don't make sense, such as the vent opening. I am not very optimistic that it will hold up over time, but time will tell.

Neh…

Not strong at all. I’d be surprised if it lasts a year.

Total disappointment

We all have different opinions about what "quality" means. However, I'm completely surprised by anyone who considers this to be a worthwhile purchase. The "polycarbonate" panels we see on video portrayed as strong enough to withstand a baseball throw is nothing more than plastic plate material. I'm serious, it is that thin.About as thick as a plant tray or the clam shell your lettuce comes in. Probably why a 4 year old is throwing the ball. The roof material is 1/8" gator board, nothing more (same material mail totes are made of). The structure felt like it would topple at the first breeze.The support brackets were so thin you could bend them with a single finger (no kidding). I don't want to be unkind, but this was a total piece of junk. I would not pay $50 for this let alone almost $500. On the sunny side of this story is Sam's Club who took back this disaster of a green house and refunded our hard earned money. I will definitely buy from Sam's Club again, but not PALRAM. BTW, they make this look huge and it is very small.

Greenhouse

The instructions were horrible. The frame was not sturdy, it was flimsy for the amount of money. Parts were broken also

All that Glimmers is not Gold

Eight panels were bent, base frame bent, and greenhouse made very flimsy. I am not a happy camper
