Quictent Mini Greenhouse, Portable Quick-Setup Small Tabletop Waterproof UV Protected PE Cover Shelter for Outdoors/Indoors W/ Raised Base for Garden Plant Seed Starting, 8 Stake, 95"x36"x36", Green

This is an excellent product that was easy to assemble and looks and functions much better than expected. I was pleasantly surprised to receive an item of this quality at this price point. The package arrived unmolested and on time. The contents matched the parts quantity description and exploded diagrams. Note: Multiple models are covered within the same manual. Upon inspection, two support poles exhibited some minor crimping at one end, but this did not affect the assembly process or product integrity. With so many excellent customer service reviews, I doubt there would be any issues obtaining service under the warranty offered on both the frame and material. The product description was accurate and this mini greenhouse fit perfectly on my small patio footprint. I recommend taking your time during the assembly process. Do not attempt setup under windy conditions. Do not pull on or stretch the cover material in an attempt to make it fit. Just adjust your frame geometry. The cover tie down straps are surprisingly short, as are the straps that support the open access windows. I have found that ancillary clips are essential to maintain cover to frame adherence, and ARE NOT included. Search Amazon for “Stainless Steel Greenhouse Clips for Netting“, or try this link: https://a.co/d/aSiA1tz for an awesome set of 36 stainless clamps that fit this mini greenhouse support ribs perfectly. Seriously consider weights when operating in windy conditions on a hard patio surface.

This greenhouse was very easy to put together. Took only approx 30 minutes to assemble it by myself, no tools needed. Not sure what happened with other buyers, but I purchased the large rectangular greenhouse with green cover and windows that can be zipped/unzipped and rolled back in addition to separate mesh windows that can do the same thing. The cover fit the frame perfectly. By the way, some buyers have complained about the ties/strings associated with the windows because one is outside and the other is inside. However, if you think about and try it out, it makes perfect sense for them to be that way. When you roll the plastic and/or mesh windows back, you then use the corresponding ties on either side by tying them in a bow around the roll of fabric. This causes the windows to stay open when you want them to. I don't understand why others had an issue with the design. On the other hand, I will say that the zippers feel delicate, however, it has been nearly a month of daily use and they are holding up just fine, but we have been gentle with the zippers. However, if something is wrong with one of your zippers, the seller will help you. Additionally, one of the covers came with two small holes at the corners from rubbing back and forth in the shipping box.....I contacted the seller and the customer service was stellar. They were so kind and promptly shipped out a replacement. Some people have complained about it being lightweight.....but it is by nature not supposed to be a heavy structure. It consists of a plastic cover and hollow metal tubes. It's not supposed to be heavy and yes, it will blow around in the wind if you don't secure it. Ours came with a generous bundle of stakes but because we are using it on our deck, we decided to just use a few bricks to weigh down the base metal tubes at the four sides and it has not budged even through a few recent storms. The Quictent greenhouse is an excellent value especially at this price point. It has only been a month so I will follow up in a few months to let you know how it held up (we usually have dreadfully hot summers) but so far it is great. The greenhouse has been a safe haven for our tender vegetation during the rough "Spring" weather we have been having. It helps to keep our seedlings warm, protected from all the hail storms we have had lately, protected from the heavy rain, and protected from the deer, groundhogs, foxes, squirrels, snakes, birds, etc. I will say, we have purposely kept the greenhouse on our deck instead of on the ground because we basically live on a wildlife preserve (joking but it certainly feels as if we do) and we don't even want to put that much temptation on the ground and risk loosing all our veggies and fruits that we have worked hard to cultivate. Wildlife has prevented us from growing anything edible in prior years and we even had to completely switch out all of our flowers to deer-resistant types because we have a serious deer problem here. So it is only because of the greenhouse that we decided to grow tomatoes, cucumbers, kale, strawberries, sweet potatoes, and sorrel. By the way, for anyone who is wondering, four of the City Pickers raised planter beds fit perfectly with some space to spare under this greenhouse. I have no complaints at all about this product and I will certainly purchase from Quictent again in the future. Have already recommended it to family and friends. Thanks!

Pretty flimsy overall. I figured it would be for the price, and being as large as it is. It was easy to put together, and the plastic joints are really good. They're sturdy and grip the poles well. But the poles and the plastic are both very thin. If you plan to put this anywhere that gets more than just a slight breeze, think again. I put mine out for the first time during a warm winter week just to test it (I wanted to see how hot it would get). I weighted it down on the "tails" with 16 standard bricks (3 on each short side and 5 on each long side). It's extremely lightweight, but it seemed sturdy enough. In the direct sun the temp shot up to 95 (it was about a 65 degree day). But I made the mistake of leaving it there until the next day when 30 MPH winds whipped up. Oops. Even though I had it up against the side of the house and next to a fence, it eventually lifted itself out from under those 16 bricks (ripping some of the plastic in the process). It blew across the yard, and one of the thin poles hit something and bent badly. It's already mostly ruined (although I could salvage some use out of it if I really wanted to). So, mixed bag. If you have almost no wind, this is a pretty nice product. It's really lightweight and the whole thing can easily be lifted and moved around when assembled. But I would not recommend it if you get much wind at all. **UPDATE** Shortly after I posted that review, a Brandline representative contacted me apologizing for the damage and offered me a replacement. While I declined the replacement since it was mostly my fault for leaving it out in strong wind, and because I had since decided to purchase a stronger permanent greenhouse structure instead (Palram), I was very impressed with their customer service and unsolicited offer of a replacement. As such, I've upgraded my rating from 3 to 4 stars.

This mini greenhouse has been really helpful for starting my plants and protecting them from wind and cooler temperatures. It was easy to assemble and lightweight enough to move around my yard when needed. The cover fits securely and helps trap warmth, which has made a noticeable difference in early plant growth. It’s not meant for extreme weather, but for seed starting, herbs, and extending the growing season, it does exactly what it’s supposed to do. A solid option if you’re gardening in a smaller space or want extra protection for young plants.

In some places, the add says it is 36" tall. In others, it says 71" tall. Since it also advertises being improved by being taller than it was, you'd think the 71" height might be the accurate one. I asked which was correct, and the ai said 71, but I knew that wasn't completely reliable. I'm only taking one star off for the very misleading contradictory descriptions, since the title of the add is the most obvious mention of the measurements and it was the correct one. It is 36" tall, 36" wide, and 8' long. What's shocking, however, is that there is no place to attach tie-down cords. What good is a cover you can't tie down? I didn't expect the stakes that come with it to be good enough, but I did expect it to have loops or grommets for attaching ropes that attach to the stakes. Apparently, you are supposed to just stick these short "yard staple" type stakes straight down into the ground over the bottom rail. That would provide maybe 3" or less of slick metal sticking straight down into the topsoil. That would not hold down anything, unless you want to pin one leaf to the ground. It would probably hold a leaf. Anyway, so I used long corkscrew stakes and had to just run ropes across the whole structure to hold it down. Strapping ropes over the top of it gets in the way of opening the doors, but that was my only option. I'd rather they not supply stakes, than to supply useless ones we just have to throw away. I'm not taking any stars off for the useless stakes. But there obviously needs to be someplace to attach ropes for stakes. It was really easy to assemble. I did it by myself when it was already getting dark and I have a bad back and arthritis. It went together easily. I wish they had one that was 8'x4' and about 5' high. or at least a little over 4' high. but 3' is probably fine for people who are just using this to start plants in the early spring, rather than covering plants in the fall. They just really need to add a way to tie it down.

This did exactly what I needed it to do. It was worth the money, though I know it's not heavy duty. It has gone through a few wind events but nothing over 20 mph and it is ok. Was very easy to put together

Just got this up today and it works great! Super easy to put together and seems like the quality is great. Definitely recommend!

This little greenhouse is easy to put together and fit my purposes well. It did not come with anything that would secure it from blowing around, so I used some spare tent stakes I had on hand to keep it fixed to the ground and that worked well. I was hoping that it would keep my plants protected from the last spring frosts. I monitored the temperature inside the greenhouse using a remote thermometer, and noticed that it usually stayed one or two degrees above the outside low, overnight. Perhaps this might be improved if the bottom of the tent were sealed off with rocks or soil. I would not trust the greenhouse to keep plants safe if the temperature was going to dip more than a degree or two below freezing. After risk of frost had passed, I removed the plastic tent and wrapped the frame in chicken wire, to prevent squirrels from eating my seedlings. This has worked extremely well, so I'm glad I got this thing if only for that purpose! Unfortunately, we had a substantial branch fall from a tree nearby, which crushed half the frame shortly after I covered it with chicken wire. It broke instantly - the plastic and metal parts are not meant to hold up to much pressure at all. I was able to reshape the frame helped in large part by the chicken wire that was already attached to it. This autumn when I take it apart for storage, I hope to be able to mend it well enough with some duct tape, and we'll see if I can get a few more seasons' use out of it. Edit - another customer happened to ask if replacement parts were available, and since I needed some myself, I decided to write to the company (Brandline) and ask. Well, why didn't I do that before?! Nearly a year after my frame was damaged, a quick email conversation with one of their reps brought two replacement plastic connectors to my door, and now the frame is as good as new. Really happy with their service! Thanks Wendy! :)
