Weatherguard greenhouse review I am very satisfied with the greenhouse with exception of 2 problems I ran into. Being a short 5′ 3″ woman, I had no problems at all with putting up the 6’x8′ greenhouse all on my own with no ladder. The only tool I needed was a Phillips screwdriver. The instruction manual was very easy to understand, and the parts were labeled with a letter to correspond to the directions. I actually googled “Weather Guard assembly instructions” and printed it out before I got the greenhouse to see if I would be able to understand them and put it up on my own. I just set it up in my back yard on a flat spot. I don’t have any kind of a rock or wood foundation to put it on, so I purchased from Menard’s, 4 treated wood, premade squares to sit under the greenhouse corners and bolted the greenhouse to them. I also purchased an anchor kit and fastened the greenhouse to the ground. All the tubes fit into each other just fine, and then the canopy went on easily for me. It only took me about 2 -3 hours, and that was taking my time. My first problem was the back panel of the greenhouse did not have the premade holes around the edge. I had to lay the front panel that did have the holes in it, on top of the back one, and trace the hole spots. Then I had to use a hole puncher and punch out all the holes on the back panel. I had to use both hands to squeeze hard enough to penetrate the plastic and boy did my hands get sore! The other problem I had was the ratchet tie downs come in a package, and you have to figure out how to get the strap into and through the ratchet, and figure out how to attach the ratchet to the frame. The instructions don’t tell you how to do that. I got so frustrated with it that I just pulled the straps taunt, and tied them in a knot around the frame. It seems to work. For my first greenhouse, and being a novice at greenhouse growing, I am happy with it so far. The first two days after I set it up, there were severe thunderstorms and it did not leak at the seams or anywhere. I’m afraid of what a hail storm might do to it. The canopy was in good condition as were all the parts. I would recommend this greenhouse to anyone as a beginner’s greenhouse, or someone who has few plants and does not need to reproduce a lot of plants and seed starting. It fills up fast.
Does the job but not everlasting! I have this greenhouse, but am currently shopping for a new one!Pros:*does the job*cheap*easy assemblyCons:*after a few seasons everything becomes brittle!the mesh screening rips if you touch it! the zipperhas broke off the door & cannot be replaced…again thishappend after using it for a few seasons*blown over many times even with it staked down!*plastic turned green*fallen down a number of times!In the end, this is a good starter greenhouse, but if you can,save your money up for a better one!
Bought this last summer before price jumped up. Well made with solid pipes for support. I used Tek screws to hold pipes together. This spring, the front door zipper failed and a replacement piece is pretty expensive (around $80). I am trying to figure out how to put in my own door, as I don’t think a new zipper door would work any better. Otherwise, the material is holding well. It does not keep heat in very well only having maybe a 3-4 degree improvement on outside temps overnight. It does heat up quickly once the sun is up and has gone over 100 degrees during an early season heat spell we had here in Massachusetts
