Woodside Outdoor Wooden Plant Flower Vegetable Cold Frame Growhouse

Hey, I've had this cold frame for about three months now. I have to say, so far I'm really impressed. It was fairly easy to assemble (with two pairs of hands!) and, despite being lightweight, seems pretty sturdy. The panels fit together well, and so far have not warped, which has been the case with previous cold frames. We've had some torrential rain and strong stormy winds this week, but it has stood up well to the deluge, even with the top semi open. At night, I secure it with a couple of bungies attached to tent hooks pegged into the ground. Time will tell how long it lasts .... but so far I'd certainly recommend it to others, especially as it's such good value for money. If they get them back in stock, I may even be tempted to buy another! Update: I've just packed this away for winter, and it looks as good as the day I bought it. The only downside I've found - somehow bugs seem to get inside the corrugated perspex and you can't get them out!

It is OK for the price, went together easy, all parts included, had a little issue but sorted very fast by seller so i am happy

I was impressed with this product and also that the manufacturer had listened to previous reviewers comments and addressed the slotted bar issue were only at one side would twist the lid but they now have one to fit on each side of the lid included. Works perfectly. Although the made up frame is very light it is also very sturdy when made up. I have made a purpose built table to save me bending so much and have also fastened the frame down to this to avoid wind damage with the frame been so light. Would recommend this product to anyone thinking of a purchase. Good value for money and good build quality also easy to assemble.

It sturdy, good size

Bought this for my husband, so he has scored the cold frame (apart from value for money). He says that it was easy to assemble, but not as sturdy as he would've liked. When I use it, I find it acceptable and functional, it houses my baby butternut squash plants very well, keeps the slugs out and is, I think, easy to open, close or leave open ( I think my husband is a little wrong about the sturdiness - I think it's fine).

Arrived promptly. Well packaged. To be honest, I didn't expect much for the price as it was cheaper than the nearest competition (which gets slagged off regularly) so I was pleasantly surprised. The cold-frame comes preglazed with the polycarbonate in 5 parts and is fairly lightweight. The timber frame corners are simply mitred and screwed but the glazing makes it stiff and flex free. Assembly is very simple with pre-drilled and countersunk screw holes for ease. Hinges are pre-fixed to the lid leaving the final few screws to complete. My only negative comment is that the glazing in the lid is rebated into the bottom edge instead of oversailing it. This will lead to water collecting and eventually rotting it out. I wouldn't mind them putting a second fixing point for the lid brace just in case you fit the frame somewhere where you can't get to a particular side but it would be simple to redrill if needed. Comments about its light weight are noted for which anchoring with tent pegs or putting some soil inside it, seem to be the best bet. All in all great value for money. Right. Better get planting!!

Great purchase

Fantastic product - even better customer service.
