It took two of us three days on and off as sometimes we got fed up and wanted to smash it instead. It came in a flat pack and the instructions are not clear or complete, so far the worst flat pack we have encountered. Some of the parts are labeled with numbers and some are not, so we had to guess where to put them; also, some labeled parts are not even mentioned in the instructions, so again we had to become mind-readers. We often had to look at the coloured picture on the box as the instructions booklet is in black&white and very difficult to see; however, the finished product does not look exactly like what is shown. It does not tell you how to attach the sliding door to the frame (hahaha - it took us half a day to figure it out). I would recommend that you put this greenhouse together with someone you actually get along well and be very careful as some aluminium and plastic sheets are really sharp. I am happy with the finished greenhouse but it is still in the lounge at the moment; I will update more details once it is put in the back garden. If you are putting this together and get stuck, please feel free to contact me. I can take close-up pictures of the product for you.
Update - make sure that you tie the greenhouse down as ours flew onto the lawn as it was so windy one night.

A set of components which roughly constitute a greenhouse, eventually

The previous reviewer was not kidding: this purchase presented us with a vast pile of ill-labelled, inaccurately manufactured bits of metal, bolts and flimsy plastic which offered the single most nighmarish flat pack endurance test we ( no debutantes, in our late 40s and very practical) have ever faced.
The instructions were pathetic, unclear, incomplete and misleading. The flatpack omitted an important metal strut, which I had to manufacture a replacement for in my workshop. Not one single joint, screwhole or length was accurately made , so every join was a struggle and a puzzle. Even the nuts were not of uniform size, so some did not fit into the supplied spanner. The spring clips which hold in the flimsy plastic jabbed our fingers and threatened our eyeballs as they bounced around the room. The supplied door parts were unlike the diagram, of a weird length and almost doubtlessly were from a different kit. I had to drill them and suppl my own fixings to get anything like a sliding door; "sliding" is an interesting way to describe the jolting, sticking, seizing and juddering motion the door does in fact unwillingly allow.
To turn this pile of cheap nasty components into a greenhouse-like structure cost us a Saturday and all our patience, energy and humour. It was a test of will, personality and ingenuity which my partner, if not I , passed with flying colours but I'd not recommend it to anyone else.
AND!!!! There are no shelves within, these will cost us another Ł100 it seems!

Instructions advise 3 people to put this together, I completed this on my own, it took 3 full days, having extra hands wouldnt of made the job any quicker as the majority of time is spent trying to understand the instructions, in which alot of major parts arnt even mentioned, 1 person can easily assemble this physically, I contacted the products manufacturers to ask for a picture of a completed model to work from but they did not respond to me, I would strongly advise spending a little bit more on a better kit from a diffrent manufacturer as the time you save will easily make the additional Ł20-30 worth it, I am a handyman with considerable experience in various trades, if I wasnt the product would have gone in the bin.

Lean to greenhouse
The only reason I didn't give this item 5 stars is the abysmal instructions supplied with it - which make it very much a matter of trial and error to assemble it correctly. Read more
