Design OK but needs reinforcement Just finished final assembly today but only after having to reinforce all of the upper “pockets” that hold the frame tubing/tension strap because on initial assembly, the glued or more likely heat sealed, seams did not hold. The seams began to pull apart when I tightened the tension strapping even though I took care to follow assembly instructions in looping the tension strap around the frame tubing so that excessive pressure would not be placed on the tarp material that makes up the shell of this greenhouse. Ended up sewing some nylon strapping along the edge of the seams which should make them strong enough to last until the sun gets the better of the shell. Was also hopeful that the shell material would be just a bit thicker. There are only 4 anchors included with the greenhouse although it is recommended that the other legs be anchored as well. Will tend to that soon because there will be some significant wind load. Box was damaged in shipping and most all of the bolts, nuts, and washers were spilled in the bottom of the box. Some were lost but easy to get replacements locally. The shell is in three parts. As far as I can tell, the two end pieces do not have anything fastening the lower edge to the frame or to the ground. I think this will also have to be modified by me in order to make entrance by critters into the greenhouse more difficult. The overall size is nice. I should have room to try a few hot house veggies this winter along with all of the tropical plants that must be brought in each winter. Only time will tell how well the shell has been treated to withstand solar degradation.
I’m up running and growing but with a few problems along the way. The product itself is fair for the price but it seems the manufacture sent so far and didn’t quite finish the design. There is no way to attach the end pieces down to keep them from flapping in the wind. I had to come up with my own method of resolving the issue. It would seem that if your going to use only pictures and no wording for instructions you would make sure the pictures were clear and understandable. I ordered two of these units and my biggest problem was that one had a defective end piece on the cover and the other had 8 pieces missing. The only way I could get replacement parts was to send the whole unit back and they would send me another unit. It just didn’t make sense to me to dissemble, box up and ship back a whole unit for one piece. Shelter Logic saved the day but with no help from Amazon or the seller. For some reason Amazon does not want me to talk about the seller or shipping here but I think I could only help others if I tell the whole story.
