Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

This is our first greenhouse. We have only had it about a month or so during mild weather. It was missing a four spikes when we received it, so we had to buy some. The cord used to anchor the greenhouse to the spikes fell apart as soon as it got wet the first time. It just deteriorated. I would like the greenhouse much better if the top were made of clear plastic with green grid instead of green plastic, because I would prefer more sunlight. The green plastic does allow light through, but not as much as I would like. It is easy to put together with two people, but the instructions are not so great. We live in Texas and it's now October. It's only beginning to get cool outside, so we shall see how the greenhouse performs in cold weather. Edit 10/31/13 Last night it rained with wind. This morning the greenhouse was completely destroyed. All of my plants were tipped over, and many were damaged. The greenhouse had blown over onto it's back, and the main ribs were crimped beyond repair The grommets that were tethered down to spikes just pulled right out of the greenhouse plastic. The greenhouse didn't stand a chance. The materials are too poorly made. We purchased it in mid-September. By the end of October, in Texas (generally very mild weather)after the first rain, it was totally destroyed. I only just finished filling it with plants, many of which were damaged, not by the rain or wind, but by the greenhouse as it fell apart. I requested a refund, because a replacement would lead to the same problems. I hope the company responds fairly. Update 11/2/13 I contacted the seller (Strong Camel USA Umbrella) about the greenhouse and requested a refund. They responded right away, were very courteous and fair, and issued me a full refund right away. Although I do not recommend this product, I do recommend this seller, because they were fair, courteous and respectful, and they promptly issued a refund with no strings attached. I have added pictures.
