I love this greenhouse. The green cover didn’t last one summer, now I need to buy another one. You need it or your plants will burn.
We are in love with this greenhouse. I don’t think it would work for plants. However, for a hot tub enclosure during the winter, it’s been great so far. Easy to set up. I would weigh down the sides with concrete blocks and stake it with the provided tie downs and stakes. It does not provide sand bags and the sides blow around when the wind picks up. It works for our purpose and creates a great private space for my husband and I to escape our kids for a little bit.

Franchement un bon acha
This has been up for a month. My plants are doing so much better being it holds in the humidity. I live in Florida so let’s see how long the covering lasts in the sun.
The rating of four stars is due to the items appearing to be used and repackaged (cloth areas: zippers, ties, etc were dirty/stained brown).
With the above noted, I recently received this item and would like to say that so far I am happy with this purchase. Durability and sturdiness of the product will become apparent with some time of use. As many others have noted, it is quite easy to set up this greenhouse. I would recommend it for purchase.
I use this product for my SAE, it works great. Very sturdy, and is quite spacious. It was enough money to begin qualifying for my chapter degree as well
It has met my expectations and I am thoroughly enjoying using it. I was not able to raise the frame by myself and had to call a friend for help.
I cannot say I recall reading all the warnings that were enclosed in the package on the Amazon site (Marketplace). Once I read all the warnings (after upacking), do not leave up in windy conditions, snow, rain, inclement weather?! But you sell it as a “Greenhouse”. Which to me is a place where I can protect my plants thru the cooler winter months in Texas…which mind you are not too bad. But, if I have to be concerned for wind, snow and rain the construction of this shelter is not for anything but supervised gatherings for families at the beach or camping where temporary shelter is needed. Then pack it up for next time. For now, I have fortified this frame and will monitor it in inclement weather, collapse it when it is windy and hope for the performance I expected. Loved the idea of the extra canopy, again to offer shade and shelter at a gathering. This makes it a dual purpose shelter as I purchased it for. Greenhouse, summer shade…hopefully.
In Florida weather, I didn’t need a plastic cover. I want to let sunlight and rain water in and keep Iguanas out. So I covered four sides and top with net. It worked very well.
Pros:
* setup is easy. I recommend using a helper simply because it is MUCH easier to walk the sides out (and put on the cover) with two people.
* it is very roomy. I had a different pop-up greenhouse which was only about 6×6, and it was kind of cramped inside. This one is 8×8 so there is plenty of room to move around.
* I’ve only had it up for a few weeks, but it seems like it will be sturdy enough to get me through the season (I only need it for a couple of months.)
Cons:
* the packaging it comes in is poor. I had to send one back due to a bent leg. They sent a second one and it was fine. But, they really need to beef up the packaging.
* I think my biggest complaint (and it’s not that bad) is with the doors. There is a zipper on each side that runs from top to bottom. It’s a little inconvenient to zip and unzip, but you get used to it. (And, I don’t really have a better suggestion.) I do kind of wish the doors were screened, though.
* I live in the south, and I use a greenhouse as more protection from wind and rain (rather than from cold.) So, often my concern is with the greenhouse getting too hot. It would be nice if there was a vent closer to the top of the canopy to let some heat out.
Other:
* just FYI: it has two screened windows (on opposite sides) with flaps held in place by velcro. It also has two non-screened zippered doors (on opposite sides).
* it comes with tie-down ropes and stakes, but they’re kind of wimpy. I used some old 14-inch stakes I already had. Plus, I sank 4 steel fence posts at the corners and used nylon rope to tie the whole thing down. That setup seems to be working well.
* opening the window flaps, rolling them up, and then using the little tie-downs is a bit tedious. I just pull up the window flap, and clamp it to the canopy brace at the top with 3″ clamps (2 per window.) It is much faster!
Holds the heat in nicely. Super easy to assemble. Has holes in the base brackets for anchors but also the right size to put screws in. Screwed ours right on to the pario.
So far this greenhouse has held up to the winds on our mountain. We are using infrared bulbs to maintain above freezing temps to save some large tropical plants. The cover is thick enough to keep the cold and drafts out. Good size for about 12-15 plants.
This is so easy to put up. It is great. Just what we wanted for the garden. Very happy with this purchase.
