Greenhouse - Walk in Greenhouse with 8 Sturdy Shelves and PVC Cover for Indoor or Outdoor Use - 56 x 56 x 76-Inch Green House by Home-Complete

When I first got it and put it together I was pretty happy - we used a mallet to make sure all pieces were securely inside the connectors - doing it by hand they FELT all the way in but when we used the mallet they always went in further. The mesh shelves are pretty flimsy and we definitely used extra zip ties to secure them. I also used some pieces of cardboard to reinforce them and they held my seedling trays fairly well. We set it up against the house on a concrete paver patio so there was no staking it - I had heavy garden pavers and just sat them on the bottom part of the frame inside and on the outside, sitting on top of the plastic flap.At one point we were predicted to get heavy winds (we did) and I rolled out a piece of black landscaping cloth to go over it with a bit of a “flap” at the bottom mimicking the plastic cover flaps and then sat more pavers on the flap. It still moved with the wind but it stayed put and nothing fell off shelves inside. If you need a greenhouse that won't blow away in a storm you should probably just build one. For what this is, it is as sturdy as it can be and a great price.Update: early this spring I had emptied the greenhouse and had been meaning to take it down when a big wind storm snuck up on us. It was definitely picking up the empty, unsecured green house and starting to toss it around so my son and I ran out and took the cover off so it was just the frame and then we hurriedly pulled the frame apart as much as we could and just piled it so nothing would blow away. Admittedly, it got away from me to put it away properly, so it sat there – plastic cover and pile of metal poles and mesh shelves in the Arizona sun and heat the ENTIRE summer. It is January 2022 and we have just put it back together for the 2nd year. The paint is kinda coming off the frame on our hands a little like the sun and weather broke down the clear coat but nothing is bent, rusted (yes it is Arizona but we had pretty torrential monsoon season this year so, plenty of rain) or broken! We knocked all supports in with a mallet, zip tied the shelves on the frame, This time to reinforce the flimsy mesh shelves I had some large cooling racks from the dollar store and laid those on top and zip tied those in place as well- I HIGHLY recommend doing this and wish I had thought of it last year because it added lots of stability and strength to the shelves – just make sure they are large enough to sit over the bar of the main frame when placing them. The plastic cover totally shrunk – the bottom flaps that went on the ground now just barely reached the bottom of the frame so it shrunk shorter but still fits over the frame fine and I just used hose repair tape to pull the flap tight and secure it around the bottom support, I also used this tape to repair some small rips and holes that occurred from the plastic cover sitting in a pile in the yard all summer. I’m still using pavers to secure on the concrete patio. We will not be taking it apart this year, though we will be moving it to the other side of the house and securing it to the ground differently. I do not expect this to last forever, however, for the use I have gotten out of it and until we get the yard to a place that we can build a small permanent greenhouse, and for what I have put this thing through?! I'm still super happy with the money I spent on it – at this time the price is around $80 and I got it on sale for just under $70. Also, the zipper worked fine last year but this year one side doesn't want to go past 3/4 of the way down anymore since sitting all summer.

I rarely write a negative review, but right now I'm aggrivated like a wet hen! It seems everything is here, but I won't know until I set it up. The cover is pretty thick, so it should make it through the winter. I have not gotten to the tie downs yet, but they seem as adequate as other tie downs.Now, my rant, first, I totally missed the SMALL numbers they have to identify each piece. After grumbling as i opened 4 packages of poles, I happened to see a small number. So, I had to go back, dig the bags out of my trash pile, and I PRAY TO GOD that I matched them up right. 2nd and my BIGGEST rant is the fact that most of the connection bags were already OPEN! As I took them out of the box, well, you guessed it, the parts fell out of the bags which are NOT marked. Most of them I am able to identify and connect, BUT there are 2 so similar that is is hard to know which one I need until I put it on poles. Some have a very slight angle to them, the others do not. This will take me HOURS to put together since I have to dig through the bucket of all loose connectors! Oh, the original box has been opened, so I KNOW whoever repacked this saw the mess inside. As you can see in the last few pictures, this is how the connectors were marked. Not only am i struggling to see this mark, THEY HAVE ALL BEEN MIXED UP IN BAGSI Why in all that is Holy, could you not have separated them and put each piece in IT'S OWN MARKED BAG? That would be to simple. 🤔I have got to stop ordering the "like new" items just to save a few bucks, because i have had to send three items ( power tools) back since summer that I'm not sure they were even check out before they were sent out. I have had good luck in the past purchasing these marked down items, so IDK what is going on with them now. I'm not going to send this back, because I'll eventually figure this out. I'm just mad that it will take me much longer😡 if this makes the review list, I'll be surprised.Fit, growth rate and plant growth will have to be noted when winter is over.

This greenhouse is perfect for my needs. It went together in about 15 minutes without any tools. The instructions were very clear. I wanted a lightweight set of shelves with a cover that I could use to start seeds for my gardens. Nice quality for the price. I would not leave it unprotected in serious wind or a thunderstorm. It's lightweight and easy to move, and I have an area sheltered from the wind, if needed.
