Just don't buy it. Within two weeks of it going up the roof and window leaked and one of the windows from the shed to the greenhouse popped open, even though it is, theoretically fixed. It's shoddy. The customer service, which is MGP not Elbec, is rude and unhelpful. Even before installation it's a real battle to persuade them it should go in your garden. To be honest, I wish I hadn't bothered.

Pieces of wood that needed to be planed to fit. Not enough black screws provided. And it was fiddly to construct. Not sure it’s the best quality but you get what you pay for I suppose

The website was very easy to navigate and informative. I was able to arrange a delivery that was suitable for me to be in for. A very friendly and competent chat from their customer service team reassured me that I had made my decision with the right company.

Exactly as described. Looks good in the corner of my garden. Built in 2hrs 40mins by the two men who delivered it. They did an excellent job, no mess left behind. I am very pleased with all aspects of my purchase.

We have just erected our new greenhouse and are extremely pleased as to how it looks and it’s rigidity on the timber sleeper base. We are novices in building a greenhouse but found the instructions easy to follow. The only advice we would offer would be to check the immediate pages for every step as sometimes there is important information that can assist you in completing each task correctly. We are now looking forward to planting our seeds etc and hopefully we will have a great summer harvest of flowers for the garden pots and vegetables for our dinner table.

Not very good the upright posts are too small as are the roof bearing trusses, the door only just fits and the window Perspex is so thin I will have to replace it with something stronger. I will not be buying another shed from ELBEC again.

Big trauma over Christmas happily resolved by Elbec's excellent customer service. I bought my wife a polycarbonate greenhouse for the allotment for Christmas as a surprise. After I missed the initial delivery my wife found out and said she did not want a polycarbonate greenhouse. It was too late to stop the the re-delivery. I contacted Elbec and they were very helpful, saying i should turn away the delivery and they would refund the price, which they did. I Then ordered an Elite glass greenhouse, but without any staging. Buying the staging separately was more expensive, but Elbec talked to Elite and got the staging added to the original order. The greenhouse is now erected down the allotment and my wife is very happy.

Seems to be a quality product at a good price. The instructions are comprehensive and easy to follow - reason for loss of a star is that a coupe of elements are missing from the instructions and may need to be amended. Firstly part 3017 (2) are listed in the parts but do not appear anywhere in the instructions. They appear to be some sort of seal but no idea where they go? Similarly part 4037 - the magnetic catch- it is shown where to fit it but no explanation as to how it works ? It is easy to build but don’t try on a windy day and also make sure it is anchored in some way.

This product gets one star because the final shed is a decent enough shed for my bike. However, it loses multiple stars because it is almost impossible to assemble correctly, especially by yourself. I enlisted the help of a professional handyman, and it took us 3 full days to assemble. The instructions (both paper and video from the Absco website) were appalling, and incredibly difficult to follow. The components didn't match what was needed, and the panels had holes where they weren't supposed to be, and no holes where there were. The screws and rivets were of poor quality, so we had to buy some more. I would advise caution before buying this because of the intense frustration experienced when assembling.
