This has been one of the best gardening investments I've ever made! South Texas is not kind to house plants. With this greenhouse, I have been able to place all my mini orchids and African violets outdoors and watch them thrive! This keeps them safe from winds and animals. In addition, if sealed, it helps maintain th humidity of the environment. My plants have loved being inside this! If I had room, I would get another larger one!! One downside, which I won't mark down for, but will make note of, is the shelves are not very sturdy. So you can't place very heavy items on them. But since I don't use them for heavy plants, it hasn't bothered me. Also, the grid pattern is rather large, and small pots can be difficult to stabilize. I simply placed my smaller plants on water trays to help avoid any issues. So again, it doesn't affect my opinion or rating of this item.

Received this today and eagerly put it up. I opened the box and pulled the bag of connector pieces out, only to have them fly all over the place thanks to the huge rip in the bag. I was immediately worried, expecting pieces to be missing, but thankfully everything was there. A lot of the poles weren't labelled, but I managed to put the greenhouse together easily, within thirty minutes (maybe longer due to the "help" my two and four year old daughters were giving me, walking off with pieces).

I admit, i thought the greenhouse was going to be deeper, and the wire shelves worried me due to them not seeming to fit properly on the poles, but after placing pots on them, they seem secure enough. They also bow under the weight of my plants (as seen in the pictures), but they haven't collapsed yet, so we will wait and see.

I plan on pegging the greenhouse to the ground for peace of mind, but it does a good job of organising my seedlings and transplants right now. I've popped it on top of a vegetable bed, to help keep the cats and pests out.

Ultimately, i am happy with this purchase and may even buy another to go above one of my other vegetable beds.

It was easy to set up, we attached it to a wooden pallet with plastic ties and attached the plastic cover to the frame with the cloth ties that were included. It survived the first snowy, windy day, but during another windstorm, the cloth ties ripped away from the cover and the cover blew completely off! We found it a few days later, a few blocks away, unusable. The frame was still in good shape, needed to be put back together at a few joints, and one joint was cracked. I ordered a new cover, and I was really determined to keep this one, so wrapped the cover with heavy twine in a number of spots. That was a week ago, and I've set up a garden tower and baby plants - so far, so good

Put it together in 30 minutes. Seems pretty durable. Make sure you zip tie the shelves down, they are a bit flimsy. I was afraid the plastic would be really thin due to the reviews, but it wasn't. Only issue is you will need to anchor it somehow. It'll blow away if really windy.

I would like to give it more stars as it fits what I wanted, I didn't have HIGH expectations but expected it to be able to withstand some heavy rain. A heavy rain tore a hole in the thin plastic and before I could duct tape it up, wind ripped it in half and right off of the frame. The shelves are not heavy duty but can support some weight, to make me feel better about them, I zip tied them to the frame. A heavier gage plastic covering and some included zip ties to secure the wire racks to the frame could take this from a 1 star to 5 star rating.
