I have given this walk-in greenhouse 5 stars, in spite of its deficiencies, because it is such a great value. I'm 6'2 and am able to move about quite nicely inside. I assembled the greenhouse in a little over an hour. The assembly diagram can be a bit confusing, but if you just stay with it, you'll get 'er done. I was not missing any parts. I upgraded the included anchors with heavy duty landscape staples and that worked much better. I did not have any problems with the cover fitting over the frame. You have to insure that all of the rods are fully inserted into the connectors. If you don't do that, the cover may not fit properly and you could tear it.
Others have reported that their greenhouse blew over. If it is not well anchored and a big storm comes up, it will blow over. I'm considering pulling some ropes over the entire structure next year to further protect against it blowing over. It will be better for you if you lay some sort of floor. I did a makeshift floor of various patio blocks and will upgrade that for next year. I am not leaving the greenhouse up all year because the sun and other elements will cause the cover to wear out, just like it does with tarps. I'm going to keep the frame assembled and move it into my garage until next spring. All in all, this greenhouse is a great value for around 100 bucks.
I bought this as a mothers day present for my finance. She loved it and of course I put it together lol . So it's really simple instructions anyone should be able to handle this with no problem. Just keep in mind to make sure to get each peice in snug ( a rubber mallet worked great for me when needed) but you could push it in by hand with a little elbow grease. My one thing is I live in an area with high winds (can get up to 50 mph at times) I did use really big rocks to hold it down but wasn't good enough. I wish the spikes to hold it down were bigger and stronger. But what worked for me was instead of putting the bricks on just the outside to hold it down I spread them along the bottom of the rack inside and that did the trick. Other than wishing it came with bigger spikes it's great. My fiance loves it, I love it we have spices and use it as a nursery of a sort for fruits and vegetables to strengthen up before transplanting into steady home. We have 2 Rose bushes we have been strengthening before transplant multiple other plants. So it's very spacious for the money. I can honestly say one of my favorite buys in recent years.
Does a great job with my plants!!! We had to put cinder blocks on the bottom (in addition to the straps in the ground) to keep it in place. But inside is spacious. Lost some shelf space on the bottom due to needing the extra weight to hold it down.
Bought this last year for seed starting. The ties that hold up the door and windows have disintegrated and now I cannot tie up the door or windows. We had a strong wind storm and I see the greenhouse rolling across the yard because the tie downs were not strong enough. The wire mesh doesn't fit on the shelves good enough and overall it's a low quality greenhouse. Now I need to buy a new one, learned my lesson.
I bought this green house in the fall with the intent to use it for spring. I have to say I'm very pleased with this purchase. I have my own anchors to secure it. I live in North Eastern US and it's definitely withstood some strong winds. Since it's not clear plastic while it does get hot the two little ventilation windows help keep it toasty and not burning. I have a thermometer in mine just to make sure it doesn't get too hot. The material allow full sun in without roasting your seedlings (IMO).
Its Great greenhouse but I am missing two rods. Since a email to the seller no response and no replacement rods ever came , cant really use one shelf. Im disappointed.

great little house for the money
was not as happy with windows, very happy otherwise.
the stakes
the stakes that are given with this is so thin it doesn't hold with strong winds and storms. I had to get heavy stakes to hold it down
Great little greenhouse for the money!

It's a great product for sure!

Does not last

The wire mesh doesn't fit on the shelves good enough and overall it's a low quality greenhouse. Now I need to buy a new one, learned my lesson.
Cheap and flimsy
Missed 2 parts and 1 part was like deformed very cheap and flimsy I added weight on bottom but the wires so flimsy and just not good in my opinion
Pleasantly surprised
