“Very pleased with the end results, took my time to construct it and recognised that at this price point the wood used might not be the best quality. So coated in wood preservative then 3 coats of Cuprinol olive garden. Glazing ok but two frames were slightly warped (to be expected). I had to multitool a few millimetres off to fit. I would advise being very careful with the centre roof joists as I set them a bit too low. I think tbh you need to be a competent DIYer for the kit but for the money I think it is very good. Be worth the manufacturer including a couple of spare glazing bars (they are knotty). Also maybe some window stays too.
Overall, a satisfying project”

“Shed not yet built but so far so good. Regrettably the delivery date was not communicated until prompted and shed was delivered before the eventual notification of delivery came. Overall, however, cost and quality of 10x6 wooden garden shed are good.”

“The quality and engineering is excellent but any weather above a breeze causes the plastic windows to flex and pop. Constuction is slow as the instuctions can be confusing. Good value for the money.”

“The quality of the aluminium fittings were very poor. The window fitting handle was impossible to use due to a poor finish. Obviuosly no quality control. I couldn't lift up the handle due to the metal catching when lifting up the handle.”

“The 4 x 3 Victorian greenhouse is good value for money with the discount and is flexible where you position doors and open windows.
When delivered the drivers unpacked the parts and helpfully took packaging away.
Unfortunately the wooden sides, doors and windows appear warped and do not fit well together. One window was cracked when delivered and had to be replaced.
The plastic cover on windows was challenging to remove.
The instructions for how to assemble were very brief and in need of text to explain assembly.”
Good Afternoon,
Thank you for taking the time to leave your thoughtful review.
We are glad to hear you found the Victorian greenhouse to be good value and that the delivery experience was helpful. However, we're genuinely sorry to learn about the issues you encountered with warped wood and the cracked window.

“The buying experience was very straight forward and I was able to select a delivery date which was very useful , the product was delivered on time and the driver unloaded it and brought into my back garden via a side gate , so I cannot fault your buying and delivery service . As to the product itself a Victorian Tall wall greenhouse It arrived with no pieces missing but was still wet/damp from I take it from the treatment and some of the parts were warped , this made assembly difficult I had to use additional fixings to force parts together and to straighten parts , many of the joints are not a tight fit leaving large gaps in which have used a clear outdoor sealant for additional waterproofing ,other parts I have had to use power tools to make adjustments,I would have expected a more close fit on the finished greenhouse , in terms of the doors and opening windows .I have painted the item with two coats of Protek paint for additional weatherproofing .I know you make these out of softwood but it should be seasoned and after pressure treatment held until the items are dry .I have accepted the product as it is and hopefully it will last . Your ordering and delivery is very good but the product lets you down”
Good Afternoon,
Thank you for taking the time to share your detailed review with us.
We appreciate your positive feedback regarding the buying and delivery experience, It is great to hear that everything arrived on time and in good order. However, we're sorry to learn about the challenges you faced during assembly due to the issues with warping parts. While we understand the frustration with these parts, warping is a natural effect of all timber and can occur due to the moisture levels and weather temperatures.
If you have any questions or require assistance, please don't hesitate to contact our Customer Care Team. We value your feedback and hope that despite these hurdles, your Victorian Tall wall greenhouse serves you well for years to come.

“Purchased a 12 x 8ft shed. Decent price and delivered quickly. Instructions for assembly not clear in places but managed to work it out. 2 sections of the shed weren’t square. The door required planing to fit the gap, and the Perspex for 1 of the windows also needed cutting. Overall - not bad.”

Good Afternoon,
Thank you for sharing your review and for highlighting our service.
We're glad to hear that you found the product to be satisfactory. The fascia boards would not be available for the side of the building, as this could entrap water on the roof, which could, in turn, pool into an area. Too much moisture within one area can cause a flux of water ingress into the building. The fascia boards that were not provided for the sides are to allow the water to flow from the roof smoothly and prevent water from building up. If you need any assistance or have further questions, please do not hesitate to contact our Customer Care Team.
