Excellent customer support
I bought this greenhouse in fall 2023. It worked very well during the winter of '23-'24. I live in the Dallas-Ft Worth area and the greenhouse is great for protecting sensitive plants during cold spells. I even had a small portable heater inside it during the worst of the cold and the plants did well despite subfreezing temperatures. The 6x8 foot model was a good size for my purposes.What impressed me the most was the customer support I recently received. In January we had a good bit of snow here, which is pretty unusual. The greenhouse withstood the snow, but then we had freezing rain and a lot of ice accumulated. A couple of the struts bent and broke under the weight, and some screw holes were stripped. I don't fault the greenhouse, the seller says you have to be careful of snow and ice accumulation, which I admit I wasn't. I should have brushed it off regularly to prevent the build-up. In any event, when I emailed the company, they replied quickly and within 4-5 days they had sent the needed replacement parts free of charge. This was over a year after I purchased it.The greenhouse is handy, portable, easy to set up and take down, and easy to store. If you live in areas that don't regularly get heavy snowfall, and if you are just a typical backyard plant enthusiast, I highly recommend it.

Sturdy with extra care and great value for the money.
I bought this to keep my carnivorous plants protected from midwestern storms in the summer and provide protection from subfreezing temperatures during winter dormancy. With this being a pop up greenhouse, I was concerned about its ability to stand up to high winds and have yet to test it against torrential rain. However, so far, it has proven to be surprisingly sturdy.At the time of writing this review, I had set up the greenhouse before those strong windstorms and tornadoes battered the midwestern and eastern states. I reinforced the stake and guy line loops with gorilla construction glue, used heavy duty stakes that screw into the ground for the lines, and put large stakes that I bought separately through the holes at the base of the legs. With the stakes that came with it, I used the loops to pin down the skirt. With all that prep, it was considerably more stable than expected and withstood 50-60 mph gusts with sustained winds around 30 mph. This is also a testament to the quality of the cover as there are no noticeable tears.The 6x8 is also a great size as it provides plenty of room for those who keep plants as a hobby and might also work well for growing seedlings year round. It’s tall enough that it’s easy to stand upright and work in, too.At this point, the plan is the further reinforce the seams with glue that’s actually meant for polyethylene and attach thicker guy lines with aluminum tensioners so they don’t slip. I also plan to use garden edging to create a shallow pit around it which I’ll fill with gravel to cover the skirt and floor which should also help with stability.Negatives so far: the cover had a rip about 6-8” long in one of the sewn seams near the door. Given that this was the only defect, I plan to glue it and let it go. Overall, it’s easy to set up but the cover can get caught in the sliding joints which will cause small tears, so make sure everything is properly positioned before expanding the frame. I also read that it is supposed to let 90% of light through but there is a very noticeable shadow inside the greenhouse so I’m skeptical of that claim. We’ll see if it’s enough for my sun-hungry carnivorous plants.Overall, you get what you pay for so I would choose this again over any greenhouse with plastic tubing. However, this logic continues in that you’ll get good stability out of this with care but it won’t be as sturdy as a permanent structure.Key takeaways:Pros: very sturdy and stable with some extra investment and care, tough PE cover, pleasantly surprised at how much room 6x8 actually is, arrived in mostly good condition with no missing pieces.Cons: had a small rip near the door and I’m skeptical about the claim that 90% of light gets through.I’m giving it 5 stars because I’m not sure I could do much better without investing in a more permanent structure.UPDATE:I eventually added stronger guy lines to the reinforced loops and this greenhouse continues to impress. It has withstood two severe storms, torrential rain, and light hail. Take reinforcing this seriously and try placing it in a semi-sheltered location so it’s not getting battered by the worst of the weather, and it will be fine. For example, mine is in the backyard. It’s not fully sheltered and has certainly experienced the abuse I mentioned, but the house and fence have helped shelter it since wind and rain can shift directions.

The perfect greenhouse for home gardener
I've been using this greenhouse for a few months now and I just love it. It is very high quality for price and very sturdy. Setup was easy, no tools required and took 5 minutes for two people. 6' x 8' is a perfect manageable size for home use. I used rocks to anchor it because I put it on my deck which made setup even easier, and will make take down for winter easy as well. In hot weather I open each end and put a 20" fan at one end. My plants are very happy and I love knowing they are protected from our crazy New England weather.

Easy to set up by yourself
Good greenhouse for a small amount of money. I bought this for a doggie winter restroom and it works fine for that. Perfect size for what I need. Material is thick enough that it stops the wind and prevents snow from entering. Seems a little flexible but it hasn’t got super cold yet.I do recommend going out and knocking the snow off so it doesn’t add too much weight to the top, just to be on the safe side.Update:Use much better stakes than the one provided. Unfortunately even with my fence as a bit of a wind block, my green house upended with the wind and broke. I have to remove a star because of this.

Nice greenhouse
I bought this greenhouse to use later in the fall when the weather turns cold and I just went through the the process to set it up temporarily, just to make sure there was no damage and that it would work for me. Happy to say that the setup was easy and the greenhouse is very good quality- the pop-up design works well and the pvc cover looks durable. Also, the zippers are not flimsy- nothing about this product looks flimsy. Besides the pop-up design, I went with this established brand so that I could get a new cover in the future, at least I hope so. I’m happy with my purchase
