Excellent and Well Made Product

I selected this greenhouse due to space as it was the largest size I could fit at the side of my house. Although it was being placed on paving stones to the side of the house, I built a rectangular base of seasoned timber to attach it to. Fairly straight forward to assemble, although the odd parts require a second person to assist. I did have to chisel out the frame and the doors to install the hinges in order for the doors to close coherently. Also needed to use a few extra screws than those supplied, but all went well. Took about One and a half days to assemble. Also bought 2 Auto vents with it and fitted these to the two opening roof windows. These were straightforward to install and operated immediately within minutes of fitting. Great product and already using it to grow tomatoes.

Excellent compact greenhouse

This is a great compact greenhouse and the auto vents are working very nicely. A few tips (if you are not a big DIYer like me!) - it took us a full day to build it and in places the instructions could be clearer. Have some spare screws to hand as we didn't receive all the screws needed in the delivery. We used a Stanley knife to remove the blue film from around the edges of the window, this made it relatively easy to remove after we had painted & assembled the parts. If you are after a greenhouse for a small space, this is great value for money.

Excellent!

Really pleased with all aspects of this product. Delivery was very good, quality is good and it was fairly easy to put together. I did it on my own and it took the best part of a day but was fairly straightforward. The only thing I would suggest is don’t use the door hinges supplied as they don’t allow the doors to close properly. I bought normal butt hinges and let them into the frame and door and the doors then closed far better. I also did not fit the lower shelves in the suggested position, instead I fitted them to the base as I will be growing mostly tomatoes, peppers and cucumbers and therefore need more height than the shelves would have allowed. All round great product, highly recommended!

A Perfect Fit

Delivery to southern Scotland took around ten days (including Easter weekend) from the initial order. (At the time the website showed 3+ days delivery for Scotland) I spoke to the Garden Site team on the phone for a delivery update. They were friendly, efficient and called back with an update as promised. When it eventually arrived, it was well packaged and the Streamline driver was helpful whilst offloading. The greenhouse went together nicely and fitted onto the back of our existing arbour perfectly. As mentioned in other reviews, we were missing a few 25mm & 60mm screws - and I agree the blue film on the glazing is a major pain to remove, especially on the inside of the opening roof-lights. The general fit and precision of the components was good and the interior flexibility provided by the hinged shelves is extremely useful. Overall I'm delighted.

Andrew Lloyd Asked:

What colour is the Forest Victoria greenhouse painted in your picture?

We Replied:

Dear Andrew Thank you for your question. We can't say for sure as the photo was taken by the manufacturer. It's probably an Ivory / Ivory Tusk with a matt finish.

Lyndsey Edwards Asked:

How weather resistant is the acrylic glazing? Does it fog or lose clarity?

We Replied:

Dear Lyndsey Thank you for your question. During humid or cold temperatures acrylic can fog temporarily with condensation but, like all glazing, this will quickly dissipate. Long term, acrylic is a great material for outdoor use as it is highly weather resistant and does not pose the same danger as glass when children are playing nearby. The only maintenance is to give the panes a wash with soapy water once or twice a year and rinse.. Should you wish to contact us further or to place an order, please call us on 0121 355 7701. Thank you for using our online Q&A system. Kind regards Lauren.
