Ok I have been looking at greenhouses and found one that I love. It is the Snap and Grow, 6x8 ft. http://bettergreenhouses.com/. Then I started looking for reviews and such, I found one call the Rion Greenhouse which looks exactly like the one I am looking at. It is cheaper but it has some really bad reviews. That it is too short and cheaply made and screws break.

What type of greenhouse does everyone have... and how would you review it on quality, ease of assembly, price. Jackb it really looks like your but I wasn't sure if the name brand is different.

Here is a link to one that "southern gardener" just put up. http://www.theeasygarden.com/forum/viewtopic.php?id=32423
I think it's a Horrible Freight offering. I have the next larger one and I'm pretty happy with it.

The only shortcomings with mine were not enough clips provided to secure glazing panels and doors would not stay closed in high wind situations.
I ordered a couple packs of clips and made a latch for the doors.

Here's a link to the build of my greenhouse. I think the price is still the same.

My greenhouse was from Harbor Freight. It is now in its fifth season and I am still completely happy with it. I would buy it again in a heartbeat.

Harbor Freight sent me a flyer today with their 6'X8' & 10'X12' greenhouses on sale for $300.00 & $700.00.
When I bought my 10 X 12 they accepted their 20% off coupon on the same sale price bringing mine to a total of $560.00 + tax. I would guess they still have the same policy.

I have no connection to Harbor Freight, just a satified customer.

THANX RICH

Well, the mighty purse rules all. I have to decide between a greenhouse or putting in new raised beds. Greenhouse is waiting one more year. :idunno
