KING BIRD Premium 15x6.6x6.6FT Greenhouse for Outdoors, Large Walk-in Heavy Duty Galvanized Steel Frame, Mesh Door Screen Window Tunnel Hoop Garden Plant Winter Hot House, Green

With a few little tweaks, this greenhouse is dynamite!1. The frame was pretty easy to put together. Similar parts are bundled together, and each part has a label sticker on it. It was a little awkward assembling it by myself, but I managed to build the frame in about three hours after work. It is a easier to use a wrench instead of the small tool that is provided.2. The frame does need a little reinforcement. Otherwise, you are relying on the cover too much to hold it in shape.3. I drove steel pipes into the ground at each corner, just inside the corner, and wired the frame to them. If you put the stake outside the corner, it will interfere with the cover. This was the first major step that really held the frame squarely to the ground. This took one more evening after work.4. The next step was to wire the diagonals. There are only two diagonal pipes on the frame, which is not quite sufficient. The wired diagonals are shown in the second picture.5. I also wired the diagonals on one end. This limits the greenhouse to one entrance, but significantly strengthens the structure. All told, I used a 100 foot roll of galvanized wire that is rated for holding 75 pounds. The wire cost around 13 dollars.6. After I stretched the cover over, I used a stronger cord instead of the thin cord that came with the kit. The roll was less than 10 dollars. Also I used cinder blocks that I had around. Also, I put it near an existing fence.7. So for less than 25 dollars, plus some things that were laying around, this thing can be made super sturdy. After I take the cover off during the hot part of summer, I will also reinforce the top bar and add some vertical supports. With these additions, I am sure that the frame will last for at least 5 or 10 years.8. For the price, this greenhouse is great. It definitely needs some tweaks, but the whole thing is so inexpensive that is worth it. My intent is to leave the cover on in spring and fall for a season extension. That way, the cover is not damaged by the worst of summer and winter.9. Right away, I moved in a chair and some shelves and a little mini greenhouse that I had inside. Now I don't need to carry my seedlings in and out of the house each day!10. The screen zippers are not as durable as the main zippers. Be gentle with them.11. I am being critical of the weak points, but the poly-carbonate greenhouses that cost several times what this cost have weak points, which are harder to remedy. This thing is a great bargain, if you have just a little skill to make it sturdy. It has tons of space! I love it!

Greenhouse was affordable. Durable. Not difficult to assembleble. I added more watering system to it. Happy with it.

I love the spaciousness of this. I was able to put the majority of it together by myself. Did need help stretching the canopy over the frame. Since I am using only one of the end doors, I did add a wire brace across the back. The ropes that came with the greenhouse are really thin and two have already broken. Went out and purchased a heavy duty rope. The greenhouse also has U shaped stakes. So far none of them have came lose. One side of zipper separated. I purchased a 6 foot, 3 in wide zipper that had sticky on the back. The adhesive held it in place while I hand sewed the door in place. This is a good backyard greenhouse that needs a few adjustments.

The media could not be loaded. This greenhouse was so easy to build I did it myself! Hubby helped carry it outside and with the cover. Once I get the tables built it will be super sturdy. I would recommend definitely reinforcing it for windy areas. It has zipper doors at both ends. You can either open the doors all the way or leave the screens down. Oh the things I can grow!

Zippers and Velcro window closures need to be improved, and the edging flap, used to seal the bottom edge of the cover could be longer, for more material to "weigh" it down. Our zipper broke, middle of the winter... ( That zipper underwent 2-4 zips, every day, for 4 months...). I laid a level, 6" gravel bed, mounted the tube frame on top of a 2x4 pressure treated base frame, w/ corner stabilizers (the photo only shows the side rail 2X4s, but the entire tube frame was supported by a 2X4 base) . Then, I attached the tubular frame to the base using metal pipe/conduit (half circle screw-downs). I then drilled holes at each of the 4 ends of the wood frame that I extended, and anchored the entire greenhouse with 3' rebar rods. We intended to keep this greenhouse, and we're relying on it to supply us with food, especially my wife's Asian veggies and herbs, that are difficult to find. We installed it like it was important to us, so we went the extra mile... In the end, we were THRILLED with this greenhouse. Beautiful! Yes, the zipper failed. BUT, I used clear flex tape to realign, and seal the two edges, FROM BOTH SIDES, AND CLOSED IT UP! We started using the zipper on the other side, of the same door, and we had the entire other end of the greenhouse if we had needed it. I never called to complain, I just left a review without giving the kingBird people an opportunity to make it right... WOW, I WAS TAKEN A- BACK when I received an email from them, wanting to know what happened. After explaining the situation, they promptly offered to replace the cover. I couldn't believe it, but, the new cover has been delivered. This greenhouse is worth EVERY PENNY! If you do some extra things, like we did, it will provide you with a GREAT experience. Ours was in a field, and it withstood several wind, rain and snow storms. The wind reached 30-50mph!! Look, if you're expecting an angled aluminum framed, a rigid polycarbonate sheet paneling, and want to pay the $1500-$3000 , go for it... Otherwise, you cannot go wrong with this kingBird greenhouse. Also, the reason I purchased it was because I own the 41' kingbird MOTORHOME cover, and the quality, for the price, impressed me sooo much. Now, having experienced the TOP -NOTCH customer service??? I'm impressed, and that's not something easy to do, for me. Well done, Kingbird. Please, improve the zippers, and YOU'LL hit it outta the park! Customer FOR LIFE!

I waited before giving my review to see how it fared thru a West coast winter and spring. What can I say except FANTASTIC! But we also did a lot to reinforce the structure and how we held it down.Assembly was sooo easy and honestly can’t see why some have problems putting it together. All the parts were there, nothing was missing including all screws and end caps.Knowing that these structures can easily get bent, twisted and broken or even become a huge flying tent, we took out time and reinforced the top of it with a simple wooden frame over the doors and in between the middle and top frame. This prevents snow and heavy rain pooling and weighing down on the top and possibly breaking or bending the frame.To prevent “flying tent syndrome,” we attached the greenhouse to a foundation of 4X4’s by bringing the bottom inside (the part that’s normally buried under dirt or held down with sandbags, cement blocks, etc.) and under conduit pipe screwed to the 4X4 on the inside. And this whole thing is placed on some concrete slabs with footage slightly larger than the greenhouse and 4X4 foundation, to help prevent the 4X4 foundation rotting. A little more work, yes, but all easily done in a day or two.The results are a greenhouse that’s still standing and hasn’t twisted or budged an inch thru strong Fall winds, heavy Winter snow loads sitting on top and Springs torrential “sheets of water” rainfall. Summer should be a breeze with the 2 doors, the 2 screen doors and the 6 windows for ventilation. As a side note, I didn’t let the snow sit on the greenhouse roof for days. It would get maybe 6-8” high before I went to bed, at which point I would go inside the greenhouse, push up on the roof area and watch the snow completely fall away. If it snowed all night, I’d repeat in the morning. Easy peasy lol.I spent a great deal of time researching these types of greenhouses before purchasing this one and couldn’t be happier with it. It may be a little more $ than some but that’s because it’s got 2 doors, 2 screen doors, a sturdier frame than some and much better cover.Do your due diligence and think what kind of weather you have on your area, reinforce with that in mind, know that placing it on the ground with just some “tent pegs” and guylines isn’t going to prevent wind from picking it up and blowing it around like a huge kite.Do that and you can’t go wrong with this greenhouse. I love mine and can’t wait to start planting and can now do this several weeks early, as I’ve already noticed that inside the greenhouse it’s several degrees warmer than outside. For example todays temp is about 10C outside and inside the greenhouse it’s almost 20C.HIGHLY RECOMMEND AND WOULD BUY AGAIN!
