I am constructing my greenhouse now and am totally blown away at the attention to detail, the quality product, and the clear and detailed instructions provided. I cannot be happier and am so impressed with Backyard Discovery and their product!! Thanks!

My wife loves the new greenhouse. It was a challenge to put it up in Oct and Nov in Colorado. We only got 19inches of snow. We painted each and every piece of wood. And that slowed the build. The build went well and we had no missing parts. This is our third greenhouse over the last twenty years. This should be our last one. I wish we would have bought this one first.

We bought this on preorder, and were shipped it quickly and safely once the product became available. The boxes took up an entire car space in our garage, so plan ahead for parts storage. Some boxes came damaged but the wood inside was fine, and BD make it very clear they will replace parts broken in shipping for free. My father and my husband teamed up to build it. It took two power drills, hammers, various other tools I’m forgetting, and three full days of work from both of them to get just the outside shell built. These are not craftsmen, but they’re no slouches when it comes to work. It took another two weeks of late fall evening work for hubby and I to get everything sealed and the inside built. It is a slow, methodical process and you really do need two people for parts of it. But it’s so, so worth it. The quality of the build and the wood are more than I could have dreamed of from a flat-pack kit. And the instructions! it’s an app which allows you to click on every single part and get the part number, twist and turn the image to better understand the instructions, and even comes with a voiceover if you need it. 100/10 just for the instruction app, it’s free and amazing and perfect. (Paper instructions are included as well for the less tech savvy)

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!

We received our Bellerose in June and had a crew seal and build it for us. This is my third greenhouse and by far my favorite. It is a nice looking structure, very spacious, and well designed. I like the option of having several shelves that can fold down and the additional shelves in the second model. No leaks and good airflow. It has been fine even in the upper 80 degree temps where my neighbors greenhouse burns their plants at these temperatures. My plants in there are thriving.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Good design and thoughtful function meets beauty. The structure of this greenhouse seems quite sturdy, and the wood design blends seamlessly with nature around it. The folding shelves are easy to use and the hose hook-up makes it very practical to use as well!

We absolutely love our Bellerose 11 x 13 greenhouse! It’s beautiful and great quality, sturdy, squares up nicely, had plenty of extra hardware, and has some nice features such as the shelving, the back wall for hooks, the exhaust fan and the hose hook up. We definitely compared lots of different options before purchasing, and we feel like this one gave us the best size and quality for the money. And in the end, it was well worth it to go with cedar. Although it’s quite a long assembly manual, it’s very detailed and doable if you just take it step-by-step. They provide an online video tutorial, but we actually just preferred the paper manual. Just pay attention to the pilot holes and the notes in red and you won’t have any issues. All in all the hardware is quality and each piece was marked well. There was only a handful of times where the pilot holes didn’t lineup perfectly. But nothing that caused any major problems. Get the roof sections squared was a little challenging, but wr expected that to be the case. We recommend using a square throughout assembly of each section to help ensure that the whole thing will be in square at the end. My husband and I assembled this together and it took us a total of 45 hours over the course of a week. We are very detailed people and my husband tends to take things slowly when assembling to make sure there are no mistakes. So there could definitely be people out there who could do it quicker than we did. Those 45 hours included moving the boxes from our driveway to the backyard location, and also opening the boxes and inventorying everything. Just those two things took 3-4 hours, but it was an important part of the process and made things go quicker later. We highly recommend laying out all of the cedar alphabetically for ease of finding each piece during the building process. We also did the same for the hardware. There is a lot of it, so you’ll definitely want to order it numerically. We used one of the large cardboard boxes to lay out all of the hardware numerically. And we were also able to write on the cardboard to label the top of each column. For example 100s, 200s etc. since each bag of hardware is labeled with a number. That way we knew exactly where to go when we had to find a certain piece. It was a definite timesaver in the end. One other thing that we found to be helpful was for one of us to gather the pieces required for the next step while the other one was assembling the parts in the previous step. Teamwork makes the dream work! ;) Side note: we decided to have a concrete pad poured as the base, with a trench drain down the middle for drainage. We poured the pad and additional 12 inches in both length and width as compared to the footprint of the greenhouse. If you go this route be sure to check the exact specs because it’s not exactly 11 x 13 (it’s 11’6” x 13’11’). And you’ll want to decide if you want the pergola to be on the concrete pad or not. We opted for not, and we will just put small concrete footers under the posts of the pergola. We also just wanted to note that we purchased our own 2 x 4 cedar planter for the center since there was so much room in there. We also purchased some string lights for the perimeter and hanging pots for the back wall. So you will see these things in our photos, but they did not come with the greenhouse. Bottom line, we highly recommend this greenhouse and can’t wait to start using it.

The reason I picked the Bellerose 11x7 Greenhouse is because of the amenities in the interior of the greenhouse and the beauty of the outside. I love the extra shelving, the fold down counter tops, the way the air flow is set up with the vents low and the fan high near the ceiling. The rack at the back of the greenhouse is great for adding more shelving or decorations. I love the front awning because it really adds to beauty of the outside structure and of course I want to hang flowers from it. The outside of the greenhouse is beautiful with the cedar wood and smells amazing. I put on a preservative that’s oil based in a natural color. I’m so happy with how it turned out!!

Well made product. The predrilled holes actually lined up and i was able to easily build this unit. It looks great and functions perfectly. I am an example of a person working by myself to build this greenhouse. It should be noted that i have lots of different tools and construction equipment therefore it was pretty easy for me to do this by myself.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This greenhouse is the cutest on the market!! I love the pergola front where I hang plants to create an inviting entrance. I get so many compliments from neighbors on this greenhouse! I love that it has a hose hook-up and exhaust fan that comes on automatically based on the temperature I set. The windows are great to alley in a cool breeze. I highly recommend and would buy this again!
