Hi

I have found this greenhouse

http://www.greenhousepeople.co.uk/greenhouses/medium-greenhouses/simplicity_le_clearance_8x10/

I know that Tesco have a 20% off greenhouses at the moment but they have not got this size only 10 X 6 which costs £399 less 20% till tomorrow.

Anyone got any suggestions for other web-sites or comments about the quality of these Please

Thanks for looking

    Please think very carefully before buying a cheap greenhouse - espcially a smaller one than you think you might need. Though it doesn't sound like a great difference, the capacity of an 8x10 is consideraby larger than a 6x10 and whatever size you buy, you'll inevitably end-up wishing you'd bought one even larger!

    Equally important is quality. Flimsy construction ensures a short life and I, personally, wouldn't buy any greenhouse with 'horticultural glass' - it's far too dangerous if it breaks - and it will, all to easily. Safety glass is a lot more expensive, but bite the bullet - it's worth the difference.

    I've never bought from The Greenhouse People but I very nearly did (in the end I bought one even more expensive) but I hear they have quite a good reputation and their products should be a lot better than the sort of cheap stuff flogged by the likes of Tesco.

    Hope that's some help.

    I have been wondering about the glass aspect
