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!

The assembly was a little intimidating at first, but we organized all of the fasteners in plastic bin compartments and arranged the wood by item number. The day it took to do this was well worth the time. We spent one week to complete assembly. My wife helped with the assembly and I have to say she is extremely happy. The quality is top notch and the instructions were clear to understand. Great Company and super nice support department.

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.

Finished building our Bellerose Greenhouse about a month ago. Spectacularly well thought out product. I was consistently impressed with the thoughtful detail that went into this. I cannot say enough good things. To make this review useful, i will talk about the challenges i had... this does not make this a negative review, but helps others building theirs to anticipate and avoid problems. We oiled all the wood first - this was 2-3 days worth of work - i stickered it to dry and then laid all the wood out on 5 tarps - there are a LOT of pieces. Get a big table (or two) to lay all the hardware out on in numerical order (there are over a thousand hardware bits that go into this - if you are not organized you will waste a lot of time searching) - for often used screw and washer sizes small containers make life easier. They GENEROUSLY include all sorts of drill bits and tools (including a 90 degree bit adapter that i only discovered after i bought one to complete the job ;)... the instructions do not note when they have included the tool you need (simple fix for Backyard Discovery) As noted in other reviews the blue protective film on metal parts is a PAIN IN THE BUTT to remove - i did it in front of the TV at night and it took several episodes and left my fingers raw. I did have one part that was improperly bent. They sent a replacement which was also incorrect so i clamped it between two boards and used c-clamps to "tighten" the channel (it should have been a U and it was a V which caused the piece to not lay flat and be a dirt collector - easy fix... but something that should be corrected on BD end of things) Plastic protective window film being pinched between parts was noted by someone else. Where i assembled the parts i peeled the film back an inch before putting on channels this let me keep the protection but not have to deal with the pinch. Pre assembled panels were tricky, but mostly with pressure and careful peeling you could get it out. Sometimes an exacto was required and in a few small areas i still have a bit of film that i simply could not get out. No one will ever notice but me and a month later i don't even know if i could find it back. For 99% of this the fit was absolutely wonderful. Better than i would have imagined possible with wood (which warps, twists and has a mind of its own...). A few of the lap joints on the roof were proud (not cut deep enough so that the wood did not lay flat). I used a chisel on these to remove a bit more wood and get a proper fit (otherwise there would have been a bump which would bend the channel that you have to slide the roof panels through). One notable challenge was inserting the roof panels. The rafters are secured in several steps before the roof panels are inserted. At some point a few of my rafters were tooo close together to make it possible to insert the panel. I tired loosening the rafters but there were secured too many times. In the end reversing a bar clamp to be used as a spreader proved to be the perfect and super easy solution... If you take one thing away from this review, let it be this. When you get to this step you will thank me ;) This thing is a LOT to put together. For the most part it is a one person job... but it helps to have an assistant to pull parts and hardware. My 12 yr old daughter LOVED this job and made my life SUPER easy! There are only a few times when it is necessary to have two adults to attach larger sections together. That being said, for all the work, it was a joy. Thoughtful and well constructed at every turn it was a pleasure to assemble. I cannot recommend this greenhouse enough. The hardest part was the level spot in our hilltop yard ;) Once we had the foundation the Greenhouse went up like a dream!

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!!

I researched other greenhouses, but loved that this is made from cedar with polycarbonate windows. The icing on the cake was that the kit came with a fan, plumbing, and electrical outlets. My reason for choosing the Backyard discovery Bellarose version was the beautiful pergola! We built a TRex deck to place the greenhouse on, making a level start. My husband is pretty skilled and he and I built the deck and assembled the greenhouse in a week. The instructions were very clear. We inventoried everything first and organized the lumber by ID number. Just know that hardware is in multiple boxes (including a small box you think is plumbing only). My negative issues are as follows: The protective film on the door and the pre-assembled triangular windows was stuck between the window and the plastic track. This means you either have to use a knife to pry it open to dig out the plastic or leave it there, which for me was not an option. The obnoxious blue protective film for the metal roof pieces needs to have to pull it off during a full assembly, especially if it is warm. It is awful to get started. You need fingernails or a sharp knife (which risks scratching the metal) to start the stuff. Honestly, this was one of the worst parts of the build. With all that said, we love the Bellarose greenhouse. And are now looking at the Backyard Discovery pergolas!

I can't emphasize enough how wonderful the experience of purchasing, receiving and building this greenhouse has turned out to be. Truly, believe the positive reviews. Ordering was easy - we waited roughly three weeks for the greenhouse to arrive (we are in northern Maine). Seven boxes were delivered. Each box contained carefully packaged pieces (lots and lots of pieces!). The instructions are incredibly clear. I am very experienced in building, and this had the feel of a giant, adult lego project :). We had cleared and leveled a platform prior to building, and we used four inches of mid-sized pea gravel as the base. Also used flat pavers for the corners. Note that we elected not to build the included pergola, as we decided there was just "too much going on" with the aesthetics. It took me roughly 24 hours total to complete the build (again, I am fairly experienced with projects of this sort, so take that into consideration). Suggestion: It is critical to be mindful of the importance of squaring the initial frame and making sure it is level. Do that properly ... and the rest of the build is spot on. Suggestions for the manufacturer: Only one thing (truly)...suggest that you recommend using an awl punch to help pierce through the various pieces of flashing prior to using the screws. The current screws aren't self tapping, and it is very difficult to get them to penetrate through the siding alone. Other than that....my Lord this was a fun project. Absolutely recommend. After the build, I then leveled and created the raised bed garden in front. Now all we need to do is wait until Spring!

We purchased the Bellerose Greenhouse last winter and started to assemble it in the Spring. Several of our neighbors assisted and it turned out to be such an exciting and wonderful project! So much so that we are thinking about purchasing another next year. Assembly was a little challenging but we put our heads together and it worked out fine. We absolutely love the greenhouse and we have been out in our gardens every single day planting, growing, and now storing and planning for Spring again. We even decorated it with lights and a chandelier! What fun! I would highly, recommend this to anyone who loves to garden and wants to improve their outdoor living. The only draw-back is that people keep asking us gardening questions and we are not professionals (yet)!

[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!

We are almost 100% complete with construction. It is impeccably designed. It's not for the faint hearted though as it is a huge project. Stain before constructing. There are great Facebook groups with tips. Backyard is also amazing and sent a replacement part overnight within a 2 minute call. Well run company.
