Tunnel Greenhouse 12m² Green

1. Assembly & set up I've ordered the largest one of the ones offered. The set up is very easy. The simple 2 sheet instructions follow a similar pattern so you don't need an IKEA style science degree to put it up. It's recommended to have 2 people to put it up. I've done it alone and with someone and it makes sense as the initial set up needs a counterweight or support. It is possible to set up alone if you are savvy but an extra pair of hands really makes sure there is no strain put on the bolts & frame. 2. Sturdiness Now, initially, I've secured it with many heavy duty tent pegs. However, I found out it wasn't efficient on its own. They do recommend it to dig it down and I have. Too shallow initially, as due to its sheer size, it was unearthed on occasion. However, I dug it deeper down & secured it with boulders, tent pegs and zip ties for the cover at the base (see pictures attached). It is well secured, solid structured, the cover is pretty thick, the inner straps (although few in number I found them to be sufficient with all other things added since the frame and the stitching wrapped around nicely). 3. Value for money I feel its good quality. We have been happy and impressed with it so far. You could say it would be nice for some pegs to come with it but it depends on where you place it and how well you dig it down. In our allotment it was getting direct flow from the wind. If you don't have much experience, be safe rather than sorry. 4. Service Prompt and efficient delivery. Had an issue initially with the first polytunnel however I contacted amazon customer service & it was fixed instantly. Was very impressed. Happy customers overall!

I, like many other reviewers was initially happy with this tunnel. It is the first time I bought a round one as I found that the shed shape ones attracted the birds to sit on the point of the roof and their claws pierced holes through it. So a round roof would solve that problem, which it has. The problem I have now is that less than a year in I noticed the rain was getting in via holes where the poles had rubbed through. I sealed those with flash tape. However, the rain was still getting in. I then noticed, as others have, that the whole thing is degrading away and the little squares are all little holes, it is now wet through inside and smelling of damp. Everything inside is also damp and green. I need a whole new cover, which lets face it, does not mean the same will not keep happening. This is obviously a manufacturing fault that needs addressing. The only good thing I can say is that its still standing throughout all the storms we've had recently, its just not keeping the rain out. Question is, do I buy a replacement cover and hope it stays intact or buy a shed shape one and try to reinforce the roof to stop birds claws going through? These should last a lot longer than a year, as previous ones I have had have done.

For the price, this is a lot of tunnel! I was able to assemble the frame by myself in 2hrs, no problem (would have been easier with help though). The instructions are simple and all parts were present. Tip: DO NOT TIGHTEN the screws until the end, and be mindful you do not overtighten as it can misshape the poles. I followed the basic advice of digging a trench and burying the base and the covers “skirt”. However it is very flimsy feeling and did not feel secure enough for the strong northerly winds we get on the coast, so my peace of mind I took additional steps… To secure the frame to the ground, I used 18” stakes in each corner and many heavy duty tent pegs. To prevent the frame from bending in a storm, I reinforced the arches with wooden braces attached with p-clips. To ensure the cover is not ripped by the frame, I used gaffa tape on all the joints, and bought some plumbing insulation foam tubes to put over the poles in contact with the cover. To make sure the cover does not fly away, I used clips to secure it to the frame, and tied the provided ropes to breeze blocks (which I also plan to bury). Finally, I used 4 ratchet straps over the top of the tunnel, which are attached to more long stakes in the ground. It required purchasing the ratchet straps, p-clips, wooden batons, cover clips, plumbing foam tubes, and using additional time to get the tunnel feeling more sturdy. I realise this may be overkill, but I don’t want to risk a wizard of oz style situation with the polytunnel flying away in the next storm we have. Otherwise, I am happy with this item, it keeps heat in, water and bugs out, and looks alright. The zip is not heavy duty, but so far, it hasn’t been an issue.

Wow, this was a nice surprise! Quick to build, well made and resisted a couple of days of strong windy stormy days! I had to but additional long pegs but other than that it’s great. The windows are handy, good zips on the door. Nice size. Quick delivery as well. Loving it.

This is good for the price. Cheep and cheerful. Frame work is simple enough to put together. Recommend two people for the cover. Frame little flimsy so I’ve had to add some reinforcement to the frame and you will absolutely need to find a system to anchor it to the ground. Will simply float away on an average breeze. The seams can and will separate so it’s a balancing act on how firmly you stretch the cover over the frame. All in all I’m pleased with it using it to grow veg inside and set my seeds away. Even if it lasts a few seasons I’ll be happy.

Perfect size for my needs. Takes a little while to fit together, but instructions are straightforward. Just make sure not to tighten the screws on the arch to allow holes to align and then tighten. Stability good, so far. Zip nice and smooth. Love the cover is supplied so that you just unfold and drape over the frame.

Works fine only for 1 season. By the time the cover starts to tear apart, the metal parts start bending due to strong winds. Finally, after 1 winter, it is useless..

Transport catastrophique... la caisse en carton était déchiré et il manque des pièce mais le service après vente a était niquel et a envoyé toutes les pièces manquantes! Très satisfait

Obwohl in den letzten Jahren grundsätzlich die Qualität der Produkte oft zurück gingen, kann ich sagen, dass dieses Produkt sehr gut ist. Seit 8 Jahren habe ich diese Art von Folien Zelt in meinem Garten und bin sehr zufrieden. Dieses ist mein 3 Zelt in den acht Jahren. Ob Tomaten, Gurken oder Salat, alles gedeiht sehr gut. Mittels den 6 Fenster kann man die Wärme gut regulieren. Einziges Manko, der Reißverschlüss an der sogenannten Tür, hat nach einem Jahr ausgedient. Ansonsten alles sehr stabil. Läßt sich gut aufbauen. Bleibt bei mir immer stehen, ob Sommer oder Winter. Gut verankert hat es auch starke Windböen ausgehalten ohne Schaden zu nehmen. Empfehlenswert, sehr zufrieden.

A estufa muito boa..

Bra och stark plast. Tyvärr gick en dragkedja sönder vid installationen. Om man förandkrar den ordentligt i marken så fungerar det bra.

Fantastic, the material is very goid
