After much research, my husband and I purchased this greenhouse with great excitement. We ordered with an in-store pick-up. After loading it into the car we noticed the end of one of the boxes was taped but it didn't appear to be anything out of the ordinary so we proceeded as normal. After getting it home and attempting to put it together, we determined this was a previously owned item, repacked and placed back on the shelf for sale! There was hardware missing (bags opened, some were empty!). Even some of the pieces were not correct. All in all, a great disappointment.

I bought the 6x12 cedar greenhouse and must say everything was there and my wife and I put this together. We are still married so it couldn't have been too bad. The only negative I have was some of the tracks for the plexi glass had to be sanded and sanded to get them to fit. So have you some heavy grit sandpaper handy and it should go smooth. We love the look.

We have had our 8x16 up for about a month now. We bought it back in December and have been slowly making it how we wanted it. The packages all arrived together. Only one piece arrived broken but was easily fixed with wood glue. We had very few pieces of wood splitting as we screwed them together but took great care noting others had experienced this. I feel the wood would not allow for a shelf to hold much and be put into the sides along the walls. So, we opted to build a table along the one side instead. The windows are the only thing that have given issues for not being sealed during rains. We used quite a bit of caulk around the outsides and insides to make it water tight. Overall, for the price this cannot be beat. It is exactly as pictured online. I spent a long time comparing models and cedar vs. glass/poly and settled on this model. No regrets and happy overall.

This is the inside of my 8x16 veikous greenhouse. I stapled greenhouse shade cloth "inside" of most of the walls and roof, to reduce heatload. I put automatic windows openers. And 12x12 concrete pavers down for the floor. We are very pleased with our Veikous greenhouse! It has now gone though 2 snowstorms!
