Customer Reviews
took a bit of extra time to understand the pictoral instructions, but went together ok
The ordering process was fairly simple, shipping was quick and box arrived in good condition. Also, no parts were missing. However, the assembly instructions are the worst I’ve seen and parts are not all numbered.
I searched the Web and found a Canopia « How to assemble » video guide on YouTube but unfortunately, it was not very helpful. Luckily, I’m a very handy, resourceful and patient person so I managed to build it in a couple of days with a second pair of hands (an absolute must)!. My overall rating for this product is 6/10. My suggestion to future buyers, read many pages of the assembly booklet ahead of the step you’re at to understand how it will fit or connect with the next steps. Also, when you’re ready to assemble the doors, ensure you install the windows facing outside because it’s easy to get confused. Good luck! 😓
P.S. I will not be using it as a greenhouse.
I found the instructions very vague and not in proper order the measurements again felt like suggestions instead of very accurate the only tool that worked for the bolts was a socket overall I'd give the greenhouse a 6 out of 10 for the price and quality
I purchased this greenhouse a few years ago and has held up well in our Northern winter. The problem is it lets out a lot of cold air around the door as it is not very airtight. There is a gap of about 1 inch at top of doors and also not airtight at bottom of door. It takes a lot of heat to keep it warm with these gaps. Otherwise it is great!
As an avid gardener, I was on the fence for years about investing in my very own greenhouse. This past year with everything going on in the world and spending more time at home, I finally took the leap and I could not be happier. I absolutely love my balance greenhouse. It is so spacious, holds everything I want in it and more. Thank you so much to the canada greenhouse kits team for the excellent service. I also ordered some accessories (trellising kit, work bench, and drip irrigation kit) that have all been amazing in my beautiful balance greenhouse!
