We put this together with the help of our friends. This greenhouse fit perfectly into a space in our new backyard where a raised bed had stood. The inside of this greenhouse is spacious enough for our two person inflatable hot-tub as well as winter protection for our more delicate plants. Most of the work occurred during (3) 5 hour Sunday workparties. 1 person sorted and matched required hardware 1 person sealed all the pieces 3 erected walls and assembled the greenhouse. We used a combination of the booklet, the app and assistance from the 1800 number. We were still good enough friends at the end of each day to enjoy a meal together. We took a pause prior to erecting the pergola and unfortunately frozen ground prevents us from moving forward.

1st and foremost I was overwhelmed by the amount of parts after opening all 10 boxes. The finished product is amazing and no missing parts. First let me start off my saying I am very handy and run own a landscape company. Me and 2 of my guys took just over 30 hours to construct the greenhouse alone. They recommend 2 people but having the third was extremely helpful with getting thigs ready for the next steps. We poured a concrete pad because the area we are putting it is very sandy. It took almost 4 hours to separate all of the pieces out of the boxes and put the together by their numbers & definitely put all of the bags of screw, nuts, bolts etc. in number order. This will cut your time in half. We highly recommend installing the BILT app and go between the paper instruction and the app because it helps a lot with certain areas. the paper instructions are very undetailed as the app you can move and look from different angles. It was very overwhelming but being everything was predrilled & labeled to made it very easy. It is a beautiful structure and very well made.

Everything was considered in this design. The hanging basket holders on the front are an adorable additionPerfect size. A gardeners dream greenhouse.

I bought the Bellerose XL this spring and I was very pleased from the start. The number of pieces seemed overwhelming but I laid everything out in order as suggested, inventoried, and decided to treat the wood before I built, and I'm glad I did. Just for reference I am a 45 yo single woman and a DIY woodworker. I had a long weekend and was able to build the greenhouse (after being sorted and stained, which took several hours and having the foundation prepared) in about 30 hours almost entirely on my own (even some of the parts that they suggested two people). I had a couple of kids helping me grab the right parts for a few hours one day, a teen help me put the gables on, and then another adult help lift the rafters and one to hold the ridge cap down while I screwed from inside. Otherwise, I was able to do it myself. I'm not saying that to brag, just to encourage anyone else who may be considering it, but thinks it might be too hard. I was incredibly pleased with how well pilot holes lined up and how well bolts and screws sat in place. When instructions said measure, level, and square to within 1/8" allowance, I only gave myself a 1/32" allowance. That's partly perfectionism, but I only had one time I had to loosen a screw to get a window to slide in, everything else was smooth. One thing I will say, on the roof splice pieces, they said five times not to over tighten, so I was careful to go flush, but when putting the splice covers on, that pinched the splice piece down enough that the screws popped up and the covers caught on the screw, which meant sliding the roof panel down and reaching through the roof to tighten up the screws. Don't over tighten but they still need to be tighter than flush. I did have a really good A frame ladder and a portable scaffold, which was a must for me. I love the way it looks and I can't wait to get my plants going. I bought this because of all of the other reviews I read and I'm very happy with the purchase. We had a heavy wind the other day and I couldn't believe how quiet and solid it felt inside. I would recommend.

I ordered and received shipment in about 10 days. 8 large boxes my husband was able to unload with a Bobcat. We were both pleased with the quality of the wood and hardware. Remember to water seal all of the lumber before assembling. This step was t in the directions however a follow up email about the 5 year warranty stated this should be done followed by annual applications. The directions and assembly went very smoothly. I am super excited to start using it this spring!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This greenhouse is super spacious. There is plenty of room for plants on the shelves as well as standing potted plants. It doesn’t get too hot when you are inside with the ventilation and the ability to open up windows and door. The added pergola adds such a nice touch to the overall look. Definitely recommend!

This greenhouse is the real deal. Quality pieces that go together easily with clear instructions. It looks great and went beyond my expectations of buying a kit greenhouse. I was most pleasantly surprised when after a 90mph straight line wind event destroyed my property the greenhouse stood unscathed!

My husband and I ordered the Bellerose ahead of moving into our new home. I knew it would be the perfect addition to my new yard and it would also be a dream to have. The greenhouse came in numerous boxes that had to be stored in our garage for awhile due to our move. Man...did the garage smell good! Once we began opening boxes I was little overwhelmed with all the pieces and hardware but my husband quickly determined a process, got things organized and a plan to get under way. I then began staining/sealing boards he outlined for me to do. After a short drying period he would select wood pieces and specific hardware and construct that section of the greenhouse. This is how we proceeded thru the entire process. Stain/seal, drying time and then "shop" for the finished wood pieces and hardware in the garage (which we referred to as our "Menards") for what was needed. It took us a month from footing creation to greenhouse finish working part time together. All the hardware was there and the wood and poly panels were in good condition. Directions were accurate and diagrams were essential in helping an amateur contractor get things right. It adds beauty and interest to our yard, feeds my creative desire, plant hobbyist heart and several friends have now fallen in love and want one to. We would highly recommend the Bellerose to any hobbyist on up!

We found every aspect of the greenhouse to be spot on. The directions, the materials, pre-drilled holes, milling, hardware,venting system, and on... were extremely well done and of the highest quakity.. Backyard discovery hits it out of the park on the Bellecose Greenhouse!!!

We bought this at the end of August. We took some time building our base, which took much longer than for us to actually put together the greenhouse. I LOVE the design of this greenhouse. It is so cute and so practical. We love having the storage space, the collapsible shelves, and the ability to ventilate. I am so happy with this purchase and would highly recommend!
