I ABSOLUTELY LOVE my Backyard Discovery 9x6 Willow Greenhouse! The quality of the material is incredible, from the cedar wood that smelled so good I wish I could wear the scent lol down to the organized packaged quality hardware. It feels more like a cozy garden retreat than just a greenhouse. It looks beautiful on our property and my plants are thriving! It took my husband and I 3 days to assemble start to finish including my many mandatory breaks lol (Texas Summers ain’t for the weak) lol.

I purchased my greenhouse about a month ago, so happy with the purchase. Great quality for the price! Living in the mountains of Colorado I needed something that could withstand the winds and snow load. Your greenhouse does that at an affordable price!

We ordered this just before spring, but due to our schedules, we were not able to assemble it until September. It took two of us to assemble and the finished product not only looks beautiful, but is extremely functional. Reside in northeast so our friend is storing tropical plants and palms in here for the winter and we’re continuing our grow season with tomatoes, peppers, herbs and other plants. We have a lot of wildlife that ate our fruits and vegetables this summer so it’s nice to have a secure space to grow. So far everything is doing well in the greenhouse and we’re very happy with our purchase. We wish we had set it up sooner!

First thing, the instructions are very good. Prompts for all important piece orientation that may be missed. As you can see in pictures, I built it on a small deck because it floods here every 7 years or so. Once together it is sturdy and securely attached (comes with ground stakes and concrete anchors, had to buy bolts for my application). Each section (wall) goes up easily with little assistance (when not windy). Since it was elevated, I deviated from instructions and was able to assemble roof section in place and not put together, lift and set in place. It definately needs wood protection very soon after assembly.

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.

We too had a roof leak. We also had pieces that were off in size which were the window seals. Not too small but too big! Ok, so we make it through all of that. Then once enclosed, we begin to notice the "sweet chemical smell." Strong! I am unsure what kind of wood this unit is made of but it isn't cedar and I DONT want the chemicals to leach into my plants! Maybe Willow? So, now, the exhaust fan. WILL NOT even come close to pulling out the heat due to the ONE vent being under the table opposite of the exhaust fan. The fan is NOT big enough. It needs to be at least a 1500, not a 620. Leaving the window and door open will require SCREEN if you want to keep critters and birds out. To make it a working greenhouse you will need to invest in a bigger exhaust fan, add another vent, put up drape screens you hang for the window and the door, a circulation fan, and a 70% Aluminet shade cloth grommeted panel. Mine has two shaded sides but still got up to 114 degrees in there! I called to discuss the issues but wasn't helped with the exhaust fan. Just said thanks for the feedback.

We are so thrilled with this greenhouse! The quality of the cedar wood is top notch, as well as all other parts, and the panels heat the inside up quickly! We purchased a solar panel with battery unit to hook up the fan and it easily controls the temp inside. My summer plants are loving the nice, warm, humid environment and are doing better than they were in the summer outside. It does take two people a while to assemble but it is worth it!!

We are currently assembling our greenhouse and we are finding it to be a very satisfying experience. This product has been so carefully engineered with the highest quality materials. We have been pleasantly surprised at the quality and ease of assembly. This is worth every penny we spent and quite frankly we were not expecting this quality at the price point. Tip: Prepare your work site carefully. Save time by having all your tools gathered on one table and a separate table for all the parts and pieces. We suggest pre-treating the wood with a sealer. Make sure to square both the building then the roof assembly for ease of installation of the roof.

All in all it is nice but the Roof is poorly designed. The Flashing goes over the splices and creates this over 1/4" gap that water just runs under. There needs to be an overhang or something because in winter the water running down will just freeze. First rain and I regret purchasing.

We purchased this to replace our old cheap aluminum kit and just got it all built up. We opted to pay a company to do it and it was worth it but overall it looks like a reasonable set up for a DIY builder to do. The finished product is amazing the quality is fantastic, I am recommending this to anyone and everyone. For the price you cannot beat it! Absolutely gorgeous and smells like a fresh cedar sauna too! We cannot wait to prep our heirloom seeds and get the starts going.
