Quictent 8x6 Walk-in Pop-up Greenhouse (Seam Reinforced), Pop-up Instant Indoor Garden Plant Shed Green House for Outdoor, 3 Screen Window, Roll-up Zipper Door and Supporting Rods, Green

The winter weather in North Texas can get cold enough to damage or kill our potted plants. Previously, we would drag them in and out of the house. No more! this 10' x 10' greenhouse fits perfectly on our deck and holds all of the potted plants. We added a shelving unit to hold small plants and a radiant electric heater. It can get windy here so in addition to using the provided sand bags attached to each leg pole, we added 1.5" PVC pipe filled with sand and clamped to the bottom of each four sides. So far this method has worked well. Happy with the quality of materials and it was easy to set this up.

Update: Well, we got hurricane Lee this weekend, true test to see how sturdy this would be. Using the tie down ropes that came with it proved to be not the best idea, after they snapped in half, I found some sturdy rope and retied it down, there was some small warping of the right side stablizers and a few tomatoes took a beating, but other than than, she held up like a champ! over 60mph winds so very impressed. But do suggest using rope other than the ones provided. Arrived quickly, the box (shipping company issue) was busted up but thankfully all the parts were still in it and in good shape with no damage. I'm a 57 yr old woman, and only 5'1 and extremely stubborn. This product states that it takes 2 to set up, unfortunately I do not have the number 2 person available. I attempted this on my own and granted, the final push to click in the top buttons was a challenge, okay, more like extremely frustrating and almost impossible, but after giving up in a snit with a lot of swearing, I left it for the night to drown my frustration in a couple beers. The next morning, I went back at it with a calmer mind and snap, went right up. I didn't put the legs all the way up as it is sufficiently high enough for me and I can have plenty of the side panels available to brace down with the grow bags inside. The tie down pegs are... well to be honest, pretty wimpy and just cheapy tent pegs, I suggest using a sturdier tie down ground peg if you are going to be using this in any open area. Other than that, I love this.

Was easy to assemble and overall good quality for the price. Seems to be protecting the plants. When it rains you have to dump the water from the edges otherwise will start to collapse. Was missing some supports in the original package, reached out to the company via email and Milka was very response and after a few emails expedited what I needed to finish the installation.

Summary It’s been a journey with this company and its products as you can see from the whole story below. The upshot is that the 4 door showedthat it was definitely an improved model - doubled the price for it on the space of 6 weeks. However, now the 4 door model is out of stock and the company is falsely advertising this Greenhouse as a 4 door model, but is instead shipping their stocks of the old flawed 2 door model with zippers that tear out easily etc as you can see from the older reviews. Buyer beware.The whole story...First input - Got the improved four door - it was a breeze to put up. 15 minutes tops with two people. Actually I can’t see what the issue is that folks have been having, but I can see if it was freezing outside that it would be much harder - the poly tunnels for the poles and the Vinyl sides would be lots stiffer. It’s 49f right now... From what I can tell this is the improved version from the two door model mentioned in the old review’s.This winter I’m putting in a number of 1 gallon and 2.5 gallon pre bonsais and a couple actual Bonsai inside for the winter to see how it works. We are in Seattle so we’ll get lots of Wind and rains, frequent freezes in the 20s and likely a couple snowfalls for 12-24 inches total. For the freeze days I’ve gotten a separate outlet GFI plugged to a thermal farm outlet (on at 35, off at 45F) which will be hooked to a selection of Fan heaters, starting with a small 250w heater. I’m going to securely Tie down all sides, then run parachute cord through the middle pole tunnels and securely tie these down too, finally I’ll close all 6 windows in wind storms.Also I’m going to put silicone grease on each of the zipper to loosen them up. One idea i has was to tie down the ends at the top to the ground if we get those 60mph wind storms, but I’ll wait to see how things go first. A couple things I would of wished for in the design:A. 2 more stake grommets on each endB. 4 vs 3 stake grommets on each side.C. Parachute cord and 2 more stakes for tie-down of the center as described above.D. Better, wider and slightly longer stake design.we’ll see in six months how this went!11/8/19. UH OH!!! We liked this cold frame so much, we bought another, this time from the Walmart Marketplace. Turned out to be the 2 door model despite the exact same description as the 4 foot model! Buyer beware! The 2 door version is absolutely not as good as the newer 4 door version. We figured we’d put it up and see if it would be ok, but the roof top support pole was too long and once connected was pushing the roof inward, like a sway backed horse!! UnsatWe took it down and tried too get it back on the bag to return, but the two of us couldn’t get it in! It was 50F... maybe the plastic sides were just too brittle... but neither the video or the instructions helped us get it to size. Finally we rolled it up and duct taped it, stuffed it in two 14” shipping boxes taped together and returned it.Afterward I ordered another from Amazon and we are waiting to see if it’s the old or the new model....,And ANOTHER unsatisfactory 2 Zipper Door/2 vent model showed up at my doorstep today!!! This is getting to be ridiculous!!! It seems that BRANDLINE is advertising the improved 4 Door / 2 Vent model and offloading the old unsatisfactory 2 Door / 2 Vent model!!! BUYER BEWARE.I tried calling BRANDLINE and got an answering machine message...End of the story.After calling Amazon and having Amazon direct BRANDLINE to supply me with the four door version and send a prepaid mailer to return the two model, the seller finally emailed me and we wrote back and forth a number of times. In this series of emails Quictent admittedly they had run out of stock of the four door model and were shipping the two door model in its place.I got my money back, but it was a struggle as they first offered me 40.00 off to accept the two door model, then 80.00 off, but that left me paying for something I never ordered or wanted. So I persisted and finally BRANDLINE agreed to refund the entire purchase price.Not happy about this transaction. Buyer beware!

I bought this to replace a similar 6x8 greenhouse ... I needed more space.This is very easy to set up (takes 2 people). The interior is spacious. It can be set to one of two heights. Mine is on the lower setting and my 6'1" fits VERY comfortably inside ... plenty of headroom. The green exterior material is very sturdy. This greenhouse features one LARGE door at one end and two screened windows. I recommend purchasing weights to put on the legs bases as protection from wind.I have only 2 complains:1. The door stays that hold the rolled up door up are only a loop and a straight string. My former 6x8 had a loop and a bar (like a Navy coat) that was very easy to keep the door up.2. Because the interior is so large, the spars that hold the up the roof span a long distance. They do not appear capable of holding a lot of weight. I have some hanging plants but I would like to move more up to hangers. I will probably create a frame to do that.
