5.0 out of 5 stars Much better than I expected!, September 30, 2011
This review is from: Spring Gardener Gable Greenhouse, 8 Feet X 10 Feet X 8 Feet (Lawn & Patio)
Pulled this out of the box and followed other’s suggestions found on reviews for the smaller, 6x8x7 version.
This greenhouse tent is ENORMOUS – much bigger than I imagined.
It’s a two-person process to put this together, and the cover fits very tightly. In hindsight, I would recommend using a step ladder and a rubber mallet to tap each of the pipes in the frame together firmly before tightening the wingnuts. We discovered when our cover was bunching, to loosen all the wing nuts holding the pipe frame together and then spot check the pipes. We pushed the pipes together more tightly, then continued to stretch the cover over it, re- tightening the wingnuts. It wasn’t until we secured all the bands that the cover fit properly, so don’t get discouraged!
At the base of the tent, there are holes at the footing to secure the tent to a more permanent base with screws or tent pegs. I did not do this, and just used some weights we have in the yard to keep the tent secured.
The quality of the canvas material appears excellent, after much tugging, there was no ripping, no popping or shredding. Much better than comparable products I viewed in the store. The zippers are plastic, so need some gentle care, but otherwise all the seams appear strong. The edge of the tent canvas is designed to extend past the bottom of the frame, to keep out water, etc.
Plus, I am very tall, so am excited to find I not only can stand up in this tent, but it is very airy with plenty of headroom. Also happy that I am able to put all my raised garden beds and two water barrels inside this thing without trouble. Overall, extremely pleased.
5.0 out of 5 stars This is an awesome product., September 2, 2011

The item arrived quickly in good order, setup in less than 1 hour, and is very good quality. We are very pleased with the item. We have had several heavy thunderstorms with heavy rain downpours, 40+ mph winds, and the greenhouse did well. I used treated 5.5″ deck lumber to mount the legs on after assembly to enable a nice foundation to allow us to move the greenhouse around if needed. During the tailwinds of IRENE I used 12″ tent anchors on each side contacting the baseboards to help it stay in place. We will recommend this product as a quality product that is perfect for us.

Several friends have this greenhouse so I was able to see the quality before purchasing. It is very high quality especially for the money. In fact two friends saw mine and have purchased one for themselves! It is a breeze to put together. No tools are required and it is very sturdy. Two sets of hands (three if someone is short) are all that is needed. I am having so much fun (and success) growing in this greenhouse that I will be ordering another before next Fall.

Me and a friend put this up and used the factory holes with no problem. We pushed all the poles all the way in and the cover fit perfect.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great greenhouse, May 11, 2011
This review is from:Spring Gardener Gable Greenhouse, 6 Feet X 8 Feet X 7 Feet (Lawn & Patio)
Would recommend 2 people assemble. I put this together myself in a few hours but it would have been easier with someone else. It’s got a nice amount of head room and feels very sturdy. The instructions are not great and you’ll have to supply your own equipment to anchor this. However, I’ve had it up for a week and it’s been pretty windy, I’ve yet to anchor it and it’s yet to knock over.
Something not mentioned in the description is that it has a ‘door’ on both ends. I put ‘door’ in quotes because it’s just two zippers that, when unzipped, allow you to roll up the plastic. Help other customers find the most helpful reviews.

5.0 out of 5 stars great buy, April 27, 2011
This review is from: Spring Gardener Gable Greenhouse, 8 Feet X 10 Feet X 8 Feet (Lawn & Patio)
This greenhouse is fantastic. I agree with other reviews. Very easy set-up & can b put up really quick. I had help of 3 other people & it took us less than an hour. Definite plus 4 me especially since just last year we put one up & directions & assembly were a mess. Wish I would have read the reviews on that one first. This is a very easy one 2 assemble but very sturdy. Looks very nice. Love the windows with the netting 4 bugs, etc. It is very roomy & easily accessible. Very pleased with my purchase. Spent way less money than on the last one & this one I was more impressed with by far. Highly recommend!
