I like this product enough that this is our 2nd one. I like the little windows in this one for our environment and setup. These last a year, possibly longer, but material does degrade and flake apart after time as to be expected
We used the green house this spring and it did the job. Plenty of seeds germinated in here for us, but the downfall was we needed to keep it under a deck as it would get TOO hot when the sun would hit it, and a good wind would pull it apart. We moved it under cover so it was protected from wind as well as direct sun. It was south facing so it would get enough sunlight to keep it plenty warm (80s) without killing the plants or get pulled apart by any passing wind or heavy rain.
We are using it on our back deck / we do not have a yard, but have a large back deck and it works well for us to raise plants in pots. It shelters them from harsh wind and rain, but plenty of warmth and sunshine come through. We grow flowers and kitchen herbs successfully. We did put bags of soil on the bottom rails, to keep it in place, because we are unable to use the tie/downs and stakes. Doorway and windows work well to adjust the breeze and warmth.
Arrived as described. However, the zippers break off very easily after 4 weeks of use. I had to become an inventor and use other materials to cover the door. It is sturdy but minimal to average materials. If using for short/term for 1 quarter only (3/months) would recommend. If wanting to use for longer periods, DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY. CHEAP MATERIAL USED FOR ZIPPERS.
This is a nice product and would have been a great way to get a head start on the growing season if not for the wind. I had securely anchored all of the anchor points into the ground with heavier duty stakes purchased separately. The wind got underneath it and ripped out the loops to which the ropes were tied. All my seedlings were tossed and I had to start over. After replanting seeds into new cells, this time I passed ropes over the top of the greenhouse since there no longer were tie/down loops. It happened again. This time, bending one of the ridge poles in half.
If you are in an area that receives less wind than eastern Nebraska perhaps you will have better luck than I did with this product.
In began using this in early spring if 2019. After using it continuously for 3 years in WA state weather with snow, high winds, lots of rain and this past year of extreme heat. I have used it for a green house in the spring and summer and storage in the fall and winter. It has been a wonderful greenhouse WITHOUT any problems with breaking or tearing. Always had stones around the outside flap to keep the wind from lifting it away. This year I will need to replace the cover because of the sun and other intense elements are finally breaking down the cover on the top and small holes are appearing. I could simply use a sheet of clear plastic and secure it to the top for another year or more of use. But I plan to purchase another one and use this frame of the greenhouse to make two or 3 trellises for my garden. I will keep the cover parts that are still in great shape and use them for other projects. I have been VERY pleased with this product. I recommend that if your summers get warm, get the one with windows that open and use a fan to venalate as it does a good job of keeping things warm in moderate to cool temperatures but could fry your plants if it gets very warm and you dont water enough and ventilate well. You could also throw a shade cover over the top to prevent burning on days when the sun is super intense. It is strong enough to withstand snow so dont hesitate to cover it if needed. Hope you enjoy yours as much as I do!
I bought this in Oct 2020 and its still holding up great with the exception of one side of the zipper on the door. Works great for what I need it for. The shelving is a little flimsy but could easily be modified if you needed a more sturdy shelving space. Hold my potted plants just fine 2 to a shelf

Its nice.

Great for the price!
Definitely worth it for the price but if you live in the desert you should add more reinforcement because of the desert heat!
Did the job but

Lots of pieces, but easy to setup

Christmas Gift for home farmer.
Gave to my brother in law for Christmas. He farms his own veggies. Works great for his purpose. Worth the money!

Not for high wind areas
This is a nice product and would have been a great way to get a head start on the growing season if not for the wind.

Would Buy Again!

Nothing fancy but works great

Easy assembly
This is a great little greenhouse. I love that it has tie down straps so the wind doesnt blow it off the frame.
