Great value for a hobby greenhouse. Received two packages a week ago and took my time assembling the greenhouse, but had it completely done, foundation and all, in three days; worked on it only a couple of hours each day. Followed the graphic instructions closely and made sure to get the foundation level and absolutely square before assembly. Purchased two accessory bundles and installed shelving and a work table. Makes for a great addition to our back yard.

True to the directions, it took 2 of us about 1/2 day to assemble. All parts were in the package along with a few extra screws, bolts and nuts (we didn't lose any, but the backup jic was nice!) So far the Greenhouse is doing great and has survived 3 big windstorms (hope I don't jinx myself with that remark)

The greenhouse was packaged nicely and assembled well based on the directions provided, my only complaint with the assembly is that the polycarbonate panels are all stacked together and were very difficult to separate from one another. There should be some sort of packaging between panels to ease separation during assembly. The panels seem a bit flimsy but they do the job. It's has been up and working for about a week now and I thought it would hold the heat better at night than it does, other than that I am reasonably happy with the finished product.

The assembly product literature can be very confusing. The labor for assembly was a little to long. We also had to do some modifications to the door and door frame by adding some sheet metal to close off from exterior weather. However overall it is a rather quality product in design and metal frame. The poly panels are close to flimsy at best. We have very strong winds in the Rocky Mountains, so I would place your product in an area that does not give it direct exposure to possible high winds in your area.

The only complaint I have is that I was not aware that to put on any shelves (that you buy separately) you need to add the screws into the vertical framework prior to completing the greenhouse. This is very frustrating because now I need to see if I can a loosen bolts here and there to be able to wedge a screw into the correct area to be able to even use my shelves. This project WILL take all day. 5-6 hours. So put dinner in the crockpot. LOL Directions were only pictures, so it was difficult to interpret some steps. We bolted it into a concrete pad and it is rock solid.

    Nice Starter Green house, Overall good quality. could use a little higher quality polycarbonate panels. They are one layer and vacuum formed which do work but it the temp drops pretty fast when the sun goes down. assembly was fairly easy. The only real down side to this is the door "latch". It is a small magnet at the bottom of the door. the magnet should be bigger or have one also on the top of the door. we've had the door fly open a few times when it get windy.

      Wonderful Product
      Bought this for my Wife last Christmas (2015). Arrived on the delivery schedule - everything in good condition and packed well. Assembly was straight forward and easy - did it myself in 6 hours. Every thing fit together in order according to the instruction steps All-in-All, a fun build project. And, she Loves It!

      Love my Greenhouse!
      This was a Christmas present from my husband. We did not put it together until recently and I love the look. It took sometime to put it together but instructions were easy to follow. I also have the accessory package with the shelving and automatic vent opener. All works great! So much fun!

        Very nice first greenhouse
        I received this greenhouse as a Christmas gift from my husband. Assembly was a one-person, one-day effort. I immediately placed some struggling patio plants inside, and they've really perked up! Plenty of room inside for potting materials, trays of starts, and a few winter hothouse tomatoes and cukes! My only negative would be the costly shelving options. We will end up purchasing small utility shelves instead of purchasing additional Palram shelves. Also, I would upsize to the 6x8.

        great deal for the money
        Not easy to put together because of no written instructions. A good wood or concrete foundation is needed. Get the bottom rails square and the rest will fit. Took two of us about 4 hours to assemble. Take your time and pay close attention to the pictures. The green house is very well built and looks great. I feel I got my money's worth and more. This is a 10 on a scale of 5

        Weak and Flimsy
        I note that there are 5 states to which this cannot be shipped--I recommend that the other 43 be listed also, unless the breeze doesn't blow there. I spent three afternoons putting it together, which was well-instructed with pictorial manual, but three days later (even after tightening all the bolts) one of our Colorado breezes just tore the house apart. The diagonal braces that should have made the "box" rigid, didn't help. I haven't discussed this with Home Depot's service Department yet, but, expecting little help, have started designing my own greenhouse out of lumber, but using the plastic panels which I found around the yard, so with a decent rigid framework, I should be able to get my wife a nice greenhouse yet.

        Probably worth the trouble
        Lots of parts...rails, small bolts and nuts. You really really have to look at the diagrams closely (no written instructions). My friend and I had to take apart and put back together some parts several times because we did not see ,at first glance, the whole picture of where parts go. It took us, off and on, one and a half to two days to get it all done. It seems to be a very nice greenhouse. Be aware that, at least with this one, the braces on both sides were too short and he had to attach them with self tapping screws; the ones in the front and back were the right length. When sliding in the polycarbonate panels, they will seem not to fit if the short braces are secured. He put it on 6"x6"s to give it a good foundation. It will accumulate heat. My neighbor is excellent at carpentry and diy projects so it will be interesting to see the shelves he builds. Seems like you can spend a Whole lot of money if you buy all of the accessories. Just enter into this project with a lot of patience and another person to help.....it will take two people or you will struggle. It is located next to her garden and water source. I am sure she will be delighted with it.

        This thing is great! It’s a bit of work to put together, but I did it alone (it would be hard if it was windy to do alone). The parts are quality and it’s already held up fine to two wind advisories. The way the panels are held between the bars is much better than the clip in variety. This thing is just perfect.

        Product came as expected. For me was simple to put together. If you are not good at puzzles or assembling things it could be a challenged to assemble. Product is performing as expected.

            It’s a nice building. All of the parts were there, nothing was damaged. and everything fit together perfectly. The instructions for the most part we’re good. The plastic panels, although thick, could be thicker for $1,000. My wife will enjoy it.

            Dissapointed
            Turned out alright but very disappointed. You'd think paying over 800 dollars for something and being a good brand it would be good quality and the parts would be labeled correctly but nope It was a pain to build the instructions literally only had pictures no words it took me like 9 hours all together to get it where it is myself, most of that time was trying to match picture to part and trying to get things to line up correctly And some the parts broke I had to replace because cheaply made you can probably build one handmade for cheaper and better quality.

              Love it! Only reason I didn't give it 5 stars, is the difficulty putting it together. The directions are NOT easy to follow. It it an all day event putting it together.
