Love our green house!

After sorting and organizing all the components, we spent a week assembling our green house. We are impressed by the quality of the materials, the thoroughness of the directions, and the ease of the fit and overall construction. Our plants are very happy and we love the thoughtful design with shelves, water supply, and air flow. We are looking forward to many years with our green house.

Perfect lil green house thats affordable too.

I purchased this green house in march, came in a little under 2 weeks and dropped in my driveway. I built the whole thing pretty much solo, taking about 3-4 days. I dug a somple PT treated dimensional lumber foundation by digging trenches, laying some gravel and setting the lumber in the trenches to the foot print of the green house. There are lots of parts, and i highly recommend organizjng everything first by number and setting it up as close to where your going to build it (stupidly i walked back and forth between my driveway and the site every time I needed a piece) Anyway, the green house came together great! I believe at the sale discount, this is going to be cheaper than buying your own lumber and design/building it yourself.

She's a beauty!!

I'm not going to lie, when I opened up the boxes to start sorting the wood and hardware I was dismayed at the number of parts. I thought "what have I gotten us in to???". My husband and I have built many things together over the years and we are pretty handy but it did seem overwhelming at first. The first day we tackled the construction of the four walls. We did make a few mistakes and had to undo a few steps and start over. We learned that you have to really pay attention to the details of each photo to make sure that the pieces are facing the right way. Each step after the walls was actually pretty fun and went much faster than expected. We started on a sunday afternoon and worked each day until dark after work hours and finished the following Saturday. I'm really in love with it. It's beautiful, it's sturdy and it smells great. I haven't "used" it just yet but I'm having fun decorating the inside. My husband was really impressed with the fact that all of the pilot holes were drilled in the correct spot and lined up. All of the parts were accounted for and there was more than enough hardware. I have always wanted a greenhouse and I'm very happy with this purchase!

Love it!

I truly love this little greenhouse . It was Extremely well-made . Easy to follow Built app and paper directions . All pilot holes Etc. lined up perfectly . My only Recommendation Would be changing the directions for roof assembly. The direction showed Silicone and screwing down the roof after it was assembled . Not sure how To do that after it's assembled at that height . Fortunately I have a 6ft 7” brother-in-law that helped Lol Other than that Super happy with the purchase even with that being said would buy it again!

Our new Zalie looks so great!

We love the Zalie! We have had it installed for about a month now, and it is perfect for a potting shed and a place to start seedling and winterize plants. installation was very straight forward, I was able to install it all myself, except for the steps that require another set of hands, and they are very limited. I did have a number of times where I was sure parts were left off... but they were all there, I had just not found them yet. Stay organized!! Truly a beautiful addition to our back yard.

Love my Zalie Greenhouse!

It is a beautiful greenhouse! Quality materials and should last a long time. Building it would have probably taken me a month, by myself, so I hired a contractor and they had two people build it in two days. They commented that that the design and build of the greenhouse was meticulous and that BYD thought of everything. Overall the contractor was very impressed with it and so am I! My only challenge now is figuring out how to keep the greenhouse cool enough to use during our hot Georgia summers.

I should have bought this year's ago!

I'm very pleased with my recent purchase of the Willow greenhouse! Adding a greenhouse to my garden had been on my to-do list for quite a while and I am really happy with my decision to purchase this brand. I assembled this mostly solo, only needing to call upon my partner for a couple of steps where his height or extra set of hands were crucial. I found the instructions easy to follow, and the pieces well labeled, with almost all holes pre-drilled and ready to go. The completed greenhouse is not only beautiful to look at, but the wood pieces, panels, and parts all seem to be high quality. Are there a lot of parts? Yes. Will it take a good amount of time to complete? Yes. Is it worth it? Absolutely! My foundation took me at least as long as building the greenhouse did, because I choose to go with pavers. Gravel would have been immensely easier, but I wouldn't recommend it based on friends who have done this with their greenhouses. A poured concrete slab would have probably been the best option, and what I would do if I did it all again. I would recommend maybe 4 days to build it if you are working mostly solo and not rushing, like I was. Half a day to unpack and organize before you actually get to the fun part of building. It is all very well packed, but it is not packed in the order that you need the parts, so pre-organizing it is essential to making the rest of the project go smoothly. You will need space to do this. This is very clear in the instructions as well. I kept a table set up near my build space, for all the parts/tools. For the greenhouse itself, I built it all the way up to before installation of the poly panels, then I applied the required sealant via spray application, to the frame inside and out. I also laid out all the other all the other remaining pieces at that point and sprayed those, so they were ready to go after the panels went in. That part only took a couple of hours. I hardest part was the roof, which took almost a full day in itself, due to all the up and down on the ladder. I am only 5'2", and even on a ladder, reaching as far as possible, I wasn't able to reach the center area of the roof in other to screw on the metal seam covers or apply sealant. Even my 6'2" partner found this a bit awkward/difficult. But we got it done. Once I got the door and window on, the plants moved in and I took my time with the other accessories because I don't currently have the power/water lines available yet. Oddities I ran in to: There were two holes not pre-drilled on the top frame pieces, that should have been. Easy fix, but it threw me off for a bit because I had to go back and re-check all the prior steps to make sure I hadn't made an error. At the very end we noticed there was also an extra pre-drilled hole in the top frame above the door, that wasn't utilized in the instructions- again- had to re-read everything to make sure I didn't miss a step. I wish they would have sent a real tube of silicone that goes in a caulking gun instead of the ones they did. Most people who own the other required tools- drill/square/rubber mallet/crescent wrench's, own a caulking gun. Finally, there are a LOT of extra parts left over when you are done, it's okay, don't sweat it. And hey, I had an extra part for the mysterious extra hole above the door, that matched everything else perfectly, so all is well that ends well. All these things are very minor in the big picture; I mention them only because I think they can be helpful to anyone still getting ready to do their own build. So long story, short, I can honestly say this kit is high quality and has many of the little extras you might be left wanting, if you go another route. To me it was worth the money and time spent and look forward to enjoying it for the many years I know it will last!

Fantastic greenhouse

I could not be more aesthetic about the green house. The materials are super solid and the instructions were very easy to follow. It took a while, but there was no issue with almost laid out in the instructions. The temperature control and internal water spigot are game changers. Excited for this season.

Happy with Greenhouse

Was very impressed with the Greenhouse. It was shipped quickly. All parts were acounted for and labeled. Took 2 people all of 2 days to erect. Instructions were very good and everything fit together perfectly. Would definitely reccomend it.

Great Greenhouse

We purchased this greenhouse about a month ago and just love it. We wanted a greenhouse for a very long time and chose yours in our long time search. Very easy to put together and looks beautiful. Just the right size for our needs!
