| I am thinking of buying the 6x8 Snap & Grow Hobby Greenhouse by warmgreenhouse.com. I read a thread about holes in polycarbonate panels and am concerned.
I would appreciate any input. |

| Was the thread you mentioned about holes in polycarb panels a general discussion, or was it specific to problems with the panels that come with this particular greenhouse? |
|
| The original post was not about this specific product. |

| cyalexa- That thread you provided is about the Harbor Freight greenhouse. It's a fairly decent value for an inexpensive greenhouse, but it's definitely marginal in some regards -- especially the quality of the glazing, and the fit and finish -- so you'll find lots of threads about it here from people who want to fix/improve their HF greenhouses. Polycarb is generally pretty tough stuff and a good choice for a greenhouse. Manufacturers of quality greenhouses usually warranty the polycarb for a number of years. My recommendation is for you to contact the web site that is offering this greenhouse and see what, if any, warranty they provide on the glazing. I looked at the link you gave to the greenhouse and the detail pictures looked to me like a quite decent product, especially at that sale price. I also found some reviews for it at another site, and 3 of 4 people were quite pleased with it. If I were looking to spend the amount you were, I'd say that it looks like a very good value for the money, and a definite step up from the less-expensive HF model. Good luck. |

| I had the snap and grow greenhouse for about 5 years. It held up well and did what I needed it to do. Great starter greenhouse. It stood up to all kinds of weather but did not survive a tornado this summer...with all the destruction not one panel cracked or broke! |

| We ordered it on Friday. I'm happy to read your recommendation. I live in Oklahoma so understand about tornadoes. |

| cyalexa- Good...happy to hear that you are getting the greenhouse. Please post back some time in the future with your assessment. |
