Parts are not marked well, tube length for the most part, but for the most part after putting it up and putting blocks around the flaps on the outside it withstood wind gusts of up 60 mph. Will do what I need it to do, hardening my plants off after they get their true leaves, I start my plants with grow lights indoors.
The instructions are very vague, but it isn't hard to put together. Start with the roof and work your way down. I used T posts to tie it down. That being said, high winds can knock stuff off of the shelves.
I got this a few weeks ago, my husband put it together for me and I was so happy. It sent together super easy and was gonna be sturdy enough for what I needed. A really bad wind storm blew through last night and managed to lift it up and throw it in the neighbors yard. It's now in shambles to the point I can't use it. I hadn't even gotten one use out of it. I'm devastated and while not super expensive it's more money than I can afford for a new one. I had the tethers tied and in the ground and heavy rocks around the outside. Unfortunately it did not stand up to the sever wind last night.
This is inexpensive, lightweight, and small. You can maximize the space by adding some
shelving and getting creative.
We had a tornado warning last week and this thing stood. We have several heavy stones on the bottom and even an outdoor umbrella stand in one corner.
I wish it were bigger and had more space, but I knew the size when I bought it, so no complaints. I kept the instruction manual and labeled the poles as I built it, so I can take it apart and rebuild as the seasons required.
This was maybe five degrees warmer than outside temps so I added three heat lamps for about a week when we had snow and ice. It was 20 outside and about 40 inside the greenhouse during the day. The heat lamps technically turned this into a hothouse, I think.
Anyway, I recommend. For someone starting 8-10 seed trays
Instructions are small which makes them harder to follow. One of the connector pieces was missing, leading to a part of the greenhouse that is unstable. Would not buy again.
Better than expected for the price. Fairly easy to put together. About an hour from start to finish. Its already filled up with plants. Put pavers on the bottom row of shelves to help it withstand winds. Still allows for plants on the pavers. Has worked great so far. Would buy again.
I've been really impressed with this little greenhouse, especially for no more than it costs! Once you tie it down, it's amazingly stable. 10 - 15 mph winds and my plants didn't get dumped off the shelves.
The part that really impressed me came after I had owned it for a year and called their support after I got a couple of tears in the cover (my fault). The customer support person I dealt with was way more than helpful and went above and beyond to help me out. THAT'S the most important part. A company that genuinely wants to do right by their customers!
P.S. I'm looking at bigger models and wouldn't buy from anyone else!

The shelves aren't very sturdy

So sad

For The Cost, This Is Stellar

Came missing a piece.

Buy separate stakes.
Easy to install/ set up. Buy bigger stakes these stakes they give you will be gone in 5mph winds.
Adorable little greenhouse.
Took a minute to figure out parts and instructions. But its a cute starter greenhouse.
For the price its a win

Great Product; Even Greater Support!
