I purchased a GardenShed/Greenhouse from you , please see the attached pictures. the assembly of the greenhouse section was far from easy and the build quality was very dubious to say the least. The quality of the wood is low, and some of the screws supplied were very poor , the head stripping out with the slightest effort. the roof section was particilatly poor. I have had to make modifications myself to get the unit to look at all decent , otherwise it looks like a rickety old greenhouse Im sad to say. This unit was not cheap. Please come and take it away and reimburse my money and compensation for time spent on this. This is not fit for purpose and not as advertised.

A cheap and nasty shed. Materials flimsy and hardware of very poor quality

This review relates to the lean-to wooden greenhouse. Delivery was excellent. No instructions were included, fortunately I'd prevuiously requested them. The instructions leave something to be desired; specifically the advice to treat the green house AFTER is has been erected. I would advise treating it BEFORE whilst it is still in its constituent parts. Having read the instructions it was clear that thoroughly treating it once erected would be impossible so I treated it first. Erecting was fairly straightforwards but for one complete pain in the 'you know where', namely fitting the styrene window panels. Had they been a mere 5mm wider all round (or certainly on the long sides) the better to overlap the timber frames, the advised method of assembly may well have worked. As it was the styrene constantly popped out the frames and, especially once the roof had been put on, was a real trial to replace them, requiring partial dismantling. Eventually managed it, but at the first hint of significant wind two panels popped out again. It's clear the arrangement for installing the styrene will require considerable amendment if this issue is not to recur repeatedly, a problem which may well have been averted with bigger panels that allowed a greater overlap on the wooden framing. Having said all of that, I was pleased with it when I finished building it, and I'll be pleased with it when I've found a way of satisfactorily ensuring the styrene stays in place. It fits the available space perfectly and will provide the space I need to bring on a few plants.

I am absolutely appaled at the quality of your shed that you supplied me, its my fault because i didnt look at the spec, if i had i would never have purchased this bloody awful shed, for one thing my wife and i cant stand up in it, the floor bows and bends when we stand on it it is fitted on a solid concrete base so it has nothing to do with the base, i am so disapointed with this dolls house, i feel totaly ripped of because of the inside height the flexing of the floor and the general quality,my profesional shed errecter took much longer than he anticipated because he was fixing broken parts of the shed. when i phoned the lady on your switchboard was very profesional but she said that i should have inspected the shed when it was delivered the problem there is that i am registered disabled and i am 73 years of age there was no way that was going to be inspected until it was erected. were not all fit and ready im afraid. so i think you could say i am one very dissapointed customer.

Doors and static front panels an inch too wide to sit on frame and make flush?? Perhaps our misunderstanding but needed to cut an inch off doors to fit?? Whole structure leaks rainwater...possibly expected to?? Absolutely love it and poised waiting for first seedlings to emerge...wonderful. Quick thought. We live in windy location and the wind lifts the window wether shut or open. As such, we fitted locking hook and eyes to prevent this.

Everything went exactly as expected, at a very good price. I have have had a Palram greenhouse for three years and when I decided I needed a second greenhouse I decided on Palram again as I was impressed with the quality. There was one minor problem but when I contacted Palram they dealt with it immediately - very impressed with the service.

Online purchase was very easy and was able to select a specific delivery day. Delivery was on the day arranged and made by a very friendly and helpful driver. Although it's a kerbside delivery he did carry the heavier panel round the back for me. Had to ring Elbec prior to delivery to clarify something and found the person I spoke to was extremely good and informative. Overall, a positive experience.

Delivery was good timing but sadly the materials they use was so thin and flimsy and the screws was more complicated as they was not marked in number as the instructions state had to measure the screws to figer out which was which. I gues you get what you pay for cheap for cheap.

Bought this greenhouse as it was the perfect size for our space. It’s a case of you get what you pay for. The Perspex windows are covered in a very thin film both sides which you have to removed. Any joining pieces together into panels is nailed not screwed. It went together ok except when we added the centre door panels they didn’t fit and my husband had to take about 3mm off each side. Luckily he has the tools and skill otherwise we’d have been stuck. But hopefully it will serve as for enough years to be more cost effective than the plastic one I seemed to be replacing most years. We still have the pieces to add to fronts at side and are adapting shelving so they can all be removed when seedlings are done and cucumbers need space.
