Fantastic Product

My greenhouse is now 6+years old and it's still going strong. Built raised beds along sides and back, will install an exhaust fan in back wall as it gets really hot even with doors and windows open. It's worth the money....no regrets. Tomatoes, cucumbers, herbs, flowers, peppers and melons housed in this beauty.

Amazing Greenhouse!

I took my time shopping greenhouses, and the essence 10x12 really seems to be great value. It checks off all the boxes of what you need from a greenhouse. I've had it a few months now and am very happy with my purchase.

Greenhouse came in a timely manner and was in excellent condition. I love the Greenhouse and am already planning springs seedlings.

Not sturdy. Broke apart at 30km/h winds even though it claims to be rated for 100km/h. This happened less than a year after installation and when the manufacturer was contacted they refused to refund, offering to send me replacement parts. I counted over 30 broken parts then gave up on my request as I would not want to just have it break the next year. I will also add that it arrived missing one panel and I had to contact them to get the panel shipped. I would not recommend this product to anyone

Outstanding Build

Since I installed my 8 X 12 greenhouse, in May 2023, I immediately planted cucumbers and tomatoes plants inside the greenhouse and now, July 2023 harvesting cucumbers and tomatoes like crazy. I have been canning all of it and also, eat some. When you walk in the greenhouse you can smell the Amazon Jungle, moisture and nature. Should had bought this a long time ago. I strongly suggest to all to buy, especially if you are enjoying gardening. If ever, you want to see some pictures, contact me and I will be happy to share some of my pictures.
