DON'T BOTHER UNLESS YOU HAVE WEEKS TO ERECT!!
This review is about a Vitavia Lean-to Greenhouse 6' x 2' with aluminum frame purchased via this company. I did my research on this and was guided by the Five Stars rating on their website. The delivery and service was fine but the problems start when you open up the Instruction Manual and it's all downhill from there!! The greenhouse is all flat packed with four large panes of glass, then several smaller ones. The Manual has mainly pictures which are difficult to understand with no manner of bits to be put together. No online video to follow although you can contact their Technical people ...... so long as it's not a weekend! No screws supplied to fix the frame to the wall because the space is limited to put the glass in, which resulted in a large pane of glass shattering. We did not realise that the greenhouse glass comes in different sizes - toughened glass ones are large panes on the sides and fronts and are difficult to handle!! Lack of instructions in pack to advise how to fix the triangular piece of glass at the top. Lengthy correspondence and chat with Vitavia resulting in a lot of wasted time!! If you're in a hurry to get your plants away for Winter - look elsewhere, because it will be Spring by the time you manage to put it together!!! At least Vitavia did admit there was a problem with their instructions and credited us with £35 to replace the glass!
