Hope It Is Worth the Effort

I purchased this product in June 2025 and finished (mostly) in September. That should give you a clue how easy and quickly it can be built. Pictures in the Installation Booklet were very helpful but must be read VERY CAREFULLY. It would help if pictures were even more detailed. Be prepared for a ton of parts being dumped on your driveway. It took weeks to separate and organize the parts. Hope you have a lot of space available. The roof of the building CANNOT be constructed as described, even with lots of extra helpers. We successfully put it together in an entirely different order. Details are available for a small fee. The use of metal pieces looks like an afterthought - it seems like overkill. The metal pieces beg for predrilled holes. We threw away the ones separating the roof panels since the polycarbonate joint connectors, properly sealed with the provided silicone, seem more than adequate. We used the rest of the metal parts because they made the structure look nice. Another source of confusion and frustration: We knew that spare parts would be included by having them lie around but did not know if they were indeed extras or would be needed later during construction. Towards the end of construction, we ended up with a door handle that did not include the pictured plate that would use bilts to hold the front and back pieces together. We manufacted a solution that mostly works. I will have to use super glue to hold it together if I don't get a complete working replacement There's more, but you get the idea.

Nice Kit

Very impressed with the kit. Very good instructions and all the pieces fit like they should. The packing folk are on top of their game. Nothing was missing and everything was labeled well! Did not have power on the property where we put it, so added some solar panels to power the fan.

Great Greenhouse

Its a great kit with lot of parts. It took about a week to complete. It takes a while to sort out the parts and put them in order of build. Make sure you take your time, I rushed a few steps and had to redo them to make it right. Read instructions closely .

Clear and straightforward

easy to build, just follow the instructions and line up your guide holes. I built all four walls first, then put everything together. for clear and visual instructions download bilt app for a 3D view.

Solid quality.

I just finished building my greenhouse and I am so happy with how it turned out. The instructions were extremely easy to follow and it was a labor of love well worth it! Solid quality.

This is the ONE!

I absolutely love my Zalie greenhouse! Fairly simple to build, instructions are incredibly clear. Added a Dreo heater for the winter and moved my succulents in last night. Can't recommend enough!
