Strong and beautiful

I am very happy with this greenhouse it is very well engineered and constructed. You can tell a lot of thought went into the design. Lots of screws of just the right size every one pre-drilled with incredible accuracy. Looks beautiful and feels really solid.

Zalie in Colorado

Love the Zalie greenhouse kit. It was easy to put together with all parts well marked and extras included just in case. I’m using it to test growing conditions in Colorado. You can follow along on YouTube at he Three Minute Greenhouse Asian updates are 3 minutes or less. I wish Backyard Discovery had a model that insulated the north wall instead of having polycarbonate there when sun never hits it. But quality at a great price makes it a good starter to insulate on your own.

great greenhouse!

WE bought this in fall and have been assembling bit by bit as the weather permits, here in northern Illinois. It is an amazing kit, well made with great directions to follow. Since we couldn't lay out all the pieces, one of my jobs was finding the parts, that that was simple as each box comes with a list of what it in it. It is beautiful and looks amazing on our lake shore. Can't wait til summer to grow some great plants! For the winter it is going to be a warming house for ice skating! Love it, Glad we decided to go with this kit instead of build from scratch. I honestly think with the quality, it was less to use this kit than to build ourselves!

Sturdy and beautiful greenhouse

we bought this for garden starters, herbs, and to keep our lemon and lime trees (planted in 55 gallon trash cans) during the winter time in Oklahoma. Beautiful cedar wood, extra thick poly panels. Following the construction instructions through the BILT app is a must and easy to follow with 3D pictures.

High winds

Do not rely on just the tie down pegs. Claims it will withstand 100 mph winds. We had winds around 70 mph and greenhouse was blown over in the wind. The metal used to put pegs thru bent in half. Pegs did not hold the greenhouse down. Use concrete or a better tie down method. Greenhouse was damaged when it blew over.

Beautiful Greenhouse

I bought this about a month ago. While it does take some time putting together the end result is a wonderful greenhouse. Well worth the effort. Very well thought out assembly instructions which I had to work around a little as we didn't have enough space to assemble the roof frame separately. I assembled the roof in place rather than on the ground. Using this method meant that I was able to assemble the whole greenhouse by myself albeit two people would make it go a lot faster.

Zalie Greenhouse

Highly recommend - easy to build and comes complete with extra parts and no damage! Wish they had a version with no poly on the north wall where no sun hits but follow along on my YouTube channel to see how I improve coloradogriit.

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.
