[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I wanted a greenhouse to extend my garden’s growing season and to extend my house plant collection more easily! I needed something that would look good in my backyard and hold up well to Midwest weather. Finally, I needed it to be functional and spacious. The Zalie checked all those boxes! We put it together over a weekend and have really been enjoying it. I can’t wait to continue to learn and use it to its utmost potential! Thank you BYD for a fantastic product!

I was looking for a smaller greenhouse and the Willow has been perfect. This is a quality, well thought out kit. Just make sure you follow the instructions exactly. If something doesn't go together right, don't force it. I tried to go too fast and missed a few steps, but all worked out very well. I added bluestone foundation, LED lighting, under shelf grow lights and an automatic irrigation system. I've received many compliments.

This is so functional and at the same time very aesthetically pleasing. I needed it put together quickly so I hired a local professional to assemble it for me and he was very impressed with the kit and the ease of assembly. Very happy with my purchase. I would suggest putting your finish on before assembling or at least before you put the window panels and roof on.

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’m very experienced to building things and I have to say, opening the boxes was very overwhelming, but after sorting it all out and building the first wall the attention to detail and quality was unbelievable!! I got this for my wife for Mothers Day and let’s just say I under estimated the time to build by a long shot. I spent about 18 solid hours and another 4 digging a trench for water and hired someone to do the electrical which took another 4hrs. All said and done, it was worth it all. Check it out, stunning! Excited for my wife and daughter to make many memories…thank you Backyard Discovery

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.

I just finished putting it together. It took me a little longer because I’m a small female and I built it by myself. I absolutely adore it! I used the BILT app along with the booklet to insure I was doing everything correctly. There is only one step that I would suggest to change. The instructions tell you to put the dust seal and the poly channels on and slide the side windows into place and then take the protective wrapping off. I did one window that way and it was a pain. The other windows I took the protective wrapping off first, and then did the other steps, just make sure you keep track of which side faces out. Other than that, I was able to fully understand every step. The instructions were very easy to follow. I do suggest you have a separate table for all of the hardware and put things in numerical and alphabetical order. it will make the assembly go so much easier. I am incredibly happy over the quality of the greenhouse. And it is just so cute to look at. Also, I sat in there and had my morning coffee during a heavy thunderstorm and didn’t have any issues with it leaking, I was very happy about that as well.

The Zelle Greenhouse from Backyard Discovery has been an absolute joy to build and own! My partner and I were able to construct this beautiful greenhouse over a few weekends, and the process was surprisingly smooth. What We Loved: Excellent Instructions: The instructions were clear, precise, and easy to follow, making the assembly process a breeze. Every step was logically laid out, and we rarely had to second-guess ourselves. Perfect Fit: We were incredibly impressed with the precision of the pre-drilled holes. Every screw lined up perfectly, which significantly sped up the construction process. Manageable for Two: The greenhouse was definitely a two-person job, but it was completely manageable for us. We had a lot of fun working together, and the project was a great bonding experience. Beautiful Design: The finished product is absolutely stunning! The Zelle Greenhouse is a beautiful addition to our backyard, and we love spending time in it. A Minor Quibble: The only hiccup we encountered was during the roof assembly. The design requires applying a bead of silicone caulking along the length of the roof panels to seal them. This involved reaching down the entire length of the roof, which felt a bit precarious at times. Additionally, the silicone was provided in tubes that were difficult to apply evenly, especially in such an awkward position. We would have preferred a different design solution for this step, perhaps with pre-installed sealant or a more user-friendly application method. Overall Impression: Despite the minor challenge with the roof sealant, we are absolutely thrilled with our Zelle Greenhouse. It's a high-quality, beautiful structure that was a pleasure to build. We highly recommend it to anyone looking to add a touch of green to their backyard!

After reading the reviews and seeing from multiple folks that it’s not horrible to put together, I ordered this greenhouse and received it in July. It arrives in lots and lots of boxes, so be sure you have lots of space for sorting and storing. I received a box with updated roof instructions that were to be used instead of the ones that came with the greenhouse. The build wasn’t too bad, I’d maybe not do it again at the end of July, beginning of Aug. I would also recommend to make sure you have a strong marriage if you are putting this together with your husband, especially if he likes to keep a level handy or it could result in a missing husband and a mysterious new flowerbed in the back of the yard. Everything basically went well with the build, the new roof instructions were a bit confusing, but I got it figured out. I’ve stained the outside and painting the inside at the moment, so I’m not moved in completely yet. It’s a great size, the benches that fold down work great and give you so much work space. I can’t wait to get everything finished up and moved in.

We stared in the middle of summer heat in GA putting it together. We usually don't leave our house in this heat. It looks beautiful in thr woods. The wood is wonderful quality and the frame is very sturdy. I have wanted a greenhouse mt whole life. Haveing looked at many companies i picked this one company and greenhouse ( Zalie).
