Very nice mini greenhouse,
It took about an hour to assemble it and get it all set up. It was easy to do by myself and the metal poles and plastic connectors are all labeled. The instructions are on the outside of the box, which I didn’t care for, since they can get torn in shipping, but mine were fine. They were easy to follow, since it is just a labeled drawing with a few sentences.
I have it on the south side of my house on a concrete patio. On the inside, I tied down a cynder block in each corner to keep it from blowing away and it is doing a great job. I also bought a heater and thermostat for it. At night, inside the greenhouse the temp stays in the 40s, even though the temp outside is in the low teens. During the day, even though the temp is in the 30s, it gets up into the 80s and quite humid inside the greenhouse. I’m in central NC, so the sun is fairly strong and does a great job of heating it up during the day, but once the sun goes down and the temp drops, you’ll need a heater (and thermostat) in it to keep it at a specific temp, which I bought at Greenhouse Megastore. I bought the Portable Electric Heater, 120V, Item Number: HT-2000 ($49) and the Portable Prewired Thermostat, Item Number: CT-1000 ($48) and both are doing a great job.

|Great customer service,
I recently bought this and put it together this week. It is easy enough to put together. First, one of the connectors was broken. I taped it together and got it to work. Than, after putting in the plants and zipping it up, I discovered that the zipper on one side is broken. It splits when you try to zip it up. I did find the Gardsman company on the internet and wrote them an email about this problem. I received 2 of each different connector and will be getting a new cover within a week free of charge. Definetely great customer service. I’m impressed. Hopefully, that will solve all of my problems.

|This is a great greenhouse…..but,
This greenhouse is perfect if you want one that is small and conveniently sized. I was so excited when I received it and it is fun and useful. The wind blew it away one time and the joints got twisted and useless, but the company sent me some new ones in just a few days. So when you construct yours, try to put it out of the wind. You wouldn’t believe how cute it is.
Update: Not only were the joints twisted and useless, but the support rods were also twisted. I e-mailed a few weeks ago, and have not received a reply. Only used it a few months and now I can’t use it anymore.
