Review on Maximize Your Greenhouse Garden Space With The Gardman R687 4-Tier Mini Greenhouse by Tyler Suarez

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Going strong 2 years later!

I've been using mine for 2 years and I love it. A few tips:1. Zip tie the shelves, as other reviewers have suggested.2. Put glue in the holes before sticking the plastic pieces together if you want to be able to pick it up and move it easily (don't do this if you want to be able to take it apart later, of course).3. Take a square of Velcro tape and stick one half to the back of the greenhouse cover and the other half to the front of the front flap. This makes it so you can easily flip the front flap back behind the greenhouse during the day to air it out, and easily flip it back down. Rolling it up is a pain and blocks sunlinght to whatever is on the top shelf.4. Put old incandescent christmas lights on/under the bottom shelf to keep it warm overnight in the winter (I live in an area of Northern California where it only drops a few degrees below freezing at night during the winter, so just a few degrees difference worked for me to overwinter herbs in this all winter long).I've been using this for 2 years to start seeds, overwinter herbs and flowers, and in the summer to store my fertilizer, pots, trays and that sort of thing. It's been great for me! Just this week I noticed a little spot of rust on one of the shelves, but seeing as I left it sitting uncovered all summer getting sprayed by the sprinkler and beat on by the hot California sun, I think that's pretty good. I can only speak for the durability of the cover up to 1 year, since I took it off to clean it and my dad accidentally threw it away, but at that point it was still in like-new condition, no holes or thin spots or anything, zipper in perfect working order.

Pros
  • Greenhouses
Cons
  • The 4-tier design of the Gardman R687 Mini Greenhouse makes it top-heavy and prone to tipping over
