Polar Aurora 6x8 FT Greenhouse, Quick Aluminum Assembly Structure Polycarbonate Greenhouse, Walk-in Greenhouses for Outdoors with Ventilated Windows, Green Houses for Outside Backyard Garden

This seems to be a very good greenhouse for a small area and for the price. I researched many greenhouses from different stores and many, many from Amazon and found that this seemed the best value. Pros: The stabilizing bars were a big selling point for me. We don’t get a lot of wind here, but when we do, it’s hard and fast with lots of gusts. I was really worried about the stability of the overall structure for many of the greenhouses I looked at. And with the greenhouse made of aluminum, I was concerned that if it were to blow over, it would get smashed to pieces. This is sturdy and has already stood up to some wind and a few inches of snowfall. It was one of the taller greenhouses I found. Most were 7’5” tall at most, and I didn’t like that if I had trees in there, they wouldn’t have anywhere to go. The greenhouse I was sent had a few minor issues. I reached out to customer service and they were easy to work with and replied quickly. They offered free replacement parts for any that were damaged in shipping and I was definitely happy with the resolution. When the sun is out, it gets HOT inside! Even on partly cloudy days, the greenhouse effect definitely works! Assembly isn’t too bad IF you are ok with directions with no words, only pictures and numbered parts, and if you really study the whole process in the manual BEFORE you try to start building. Cons: The listed dimensions of 8x16 aren’t exact and the listing has several confusing inconsistencies in the different places the dimensions are listed. I can’t remember the exact numbers, but it ended up being closer to 7.5x15.5. Several parts arrived dented and scratched, and one of the steel stabilizer rods was a little rusted. But like I said before, customer service made it a breeze to resolve all of that. The last issue is the instruction manual. Oy vey. There aren’t words. It’s all pictures and diagrams. My husband does construction, his mom and I are both pretty good at using tools and building things. My 14 and 11 year olds helped. It still took us a day and a half to assemble. If I had it to do over again, I would have gone through the manual twice just to familiarize myself with the process and then lay out the parts by the order of the steps in the manual. There was one very confusing part in the manual where it called for a part that wasn’t in the two boxes we were sent…but it worked out ok because even though it was called for, it was never used in any of the steps of assembly. Trust me, I checked and double checked. So, if you’re good at assembling things and following instructions, it’s actually not that hard to put together. But if you’re not willing to pay CLOSE attention to what the pictures are saying, (we had to disassemble a few things and flip them around because we didn’t notice the direction mattered for the part) or if you’re not very handy, I’d say ask for help or hire someone to put it up for you.

Product look good. Mannual could be more accurate. At least one typo was written screw 11 while it should have been 12 . Drawing are inaccurate for the pole on the wall. Put two hole up. Took about 6h to build after having a flat surface. Need two persons. It is in fact 1 door and 2 windows. After first strom some panel flew away and a window as well. It is also not bery water proof. Quite a bit of tunning to do. Back at the start. All plarts were replace very good customer service.

I love my greenhouse 💚

Very non descriptive instructions which made the process a lot harder to assemble. Also it should definitely be anchored down.

This was easy to put together and had no missing parts or fasteners. Everything was packaged well and was marked with a part number clearly. After several months of use, it has held up well and with a portable heater in it, it has kept my wifes plants alive through the winter.

Quality for sure, only down side is assembly is a bit tricky.

A bit challenging to built. but worth it

I give this greenhouse 4 stars but actually it's more like 3&1/2 for personal reasons. This would be perfect for houseplants, maybe even veggies, idk, I've never grown veggies, but for cacti, it is NOT good. The ploycarbonate is not clear so there is Alot of sun that is not being let in. It's making a few of my cactuses etiolated already, idk what I can do now. But it's a nice greenhouse, seems to be sturdy, did not have a base so we made one ourselves which seems to make it even more studerier. (See Pic) Also, it's NOT exactly 8x12. Not on the inside. It's about 4 inches short each way inside so I had 2 6foot tables to fit on each 12 foot wall but it was too short so I had to return one of the 6ft table for a 5ft, then they fit perfect. But most of what I was disappointed is in "Specs" the description says 5 vents and 2 doors. That is NOT so! That was the #1 reason why I picked this greenhouse over others was the extra vents. It actually has only 2 vents and 1 skinny door. Very disappointing. They need to fix that great error under their Specs!!!! The reviews and directions said it should only be a 2 day project to build this. Mind you, we did the base also but it took us almost 3 weeks with 2 ppl. So I feel like I'm saying Alot of negatives and I apologize about that cuz like I said, I still give it 3&1/2 -4 stars bc it IS a beautiful greenhouse, it's prettier than my actual house! It's got plenty of space, the plants I have in it that Are NOT cacti have been thriving since & it's been a nice sanctuary for me to go out into and get "lost" in! I am just trying to be fair, upfront and honest and tell y'all what I would want to know before I were to buy it. Thank you for reading!!! Hope this helps either way what y'all choose!!!
