Strong Camel Greenhouse Replacement Frame for 16' X 7' X 7' Larger Hot Garden House , Support Arch Frame Climbing Plants/Flowers/Vegetables (16' X 7' X 7')

Cheap but holds up. Had survived several storms so far. We used rebar in the bottom poles to anchor it and make it taller. Works like a charm. Would buy again!

Perfect frame. I used Gorilla tape to hold the joints together. Easy to put together - perfect frame for my garden. I added a mesh shade cloth to protect my plants.

I bought this 10' X 20' frame so I could add chicken wire to it, and escalate my war on the squirrels and raccoons that are eating my vegetables. I called it Operation Squirrel Interdiction.If you are handy, and have experience assembling things, you will do alright on the assembly, as it's not too complicated, but if you are a beginner, the lack of clear directions might prove an issue.My box came demolished because for some reason customs held it. I can't hold the company accountable for that, but because of that, some pipes were bent on the ends. I used a pair of needle-nose pliers to bend them back. I still don't know what customs was looking for? Illegal garden equipment?It took us under two hours to set it up. I had my wife help because she is far taller than me. I'd have needed a ladder to do the top pieces without her.I did notice a few issues. The joins between pipes was not very tight, and there was a lot of ease for the pipe to slip back out if it wiggled. I addressed this by using outdoor rated gorilla tape, and wrapping each pipe connection. That fixed a lot, but I don't know how long term that will be.I am in the Pacific Northwest, and I had to wait for two weeks for the nonstop pouring to dry up before I went back to add the chicken wire. I noticed at this time, some of the spot welds and areas on the pipes had chips and were already rusting. I don't know how long this will last, but for the price, I'm willing to give it a go.In all, adding the chicken wire, and the pvc pipe to create a door and end walls, have really added to the stability of the frame, and unless it rusts out, I think it will alst a good long time. I managed to get 6 raised beds in the space, and plan to toss some green house plastic over it for late fall through early spring growing.I am very happy with this, and honestly for how cheap it was, I will just buy another if it falls apart.

When trying to assemble, bolts holding top centerline poles bent and broke. So I’m left with a stack of metal poles that I can’t use

The frame went up fairly easily, better if you have 2 people. I think he frame should hold up for a while. Will have to see what it looks like next spring, I do not think it will handle be taken apart and reassemble very well.

Received it and was excited. Laid it out and looked for Instructions, lots of luck with that. It was a parts list of what's included in the box. It is NOT a person job IMHO in any way shape or form. The pieces do not slide into one another and connect with a set screw... Instead it's thin walled "bullet" shaped pieces of plastic. All the connectors to connect the pieces are plastic. There was maybe 8 screws/bolts but... Really? This thing is gonna bake in the sun for the most part and how would you know if the integrity of the plastic has degraded from heat on metal? You'd know when it collapsed. I gathered all the pieces and parts and put them back in the box and have to drive 30 miles to my nearest UPS to return it or I can wait a few months load what's left after a collapse and haul it to the dump. I opted for UPS. It IS going back. I guess, once again, you get cheap China junk and cut loose with $118 and pray it lasts at least one season. In my area I didn't see it lasting through a day of stiff occasional wind gusts. I have two from another manufacturer, purchased from Amazon several years ago and they're STILL standing. That's what Im looking for... At least some bang for my buck. This wasn't it.
