VOUNOT Polytunnel Greenhouse 4x3x2m 12m² Poly Tunnels Gardening Walk In Pollytunnel Tent with Steel Frame

I really wasnt expecting this flimsy looking thing to last, i was wrong, this flimsy looking thing int so wek, it stood up to two storms, 70mph winds at its best, gusts of 80+, build it and strap it down and have a couple of years atleast. well worth the money.

I, like many other reviewers was initially happy with this tunnel. It is the first time I bought a round one as I found that the shed shape ones attracted the birds to sit on the point of the roof and their claws pierced holes through it. So a round roof would solve that problem, which it has. The problem I have now is that less than a year in I noticed the rain was getting in via holes where the poles had rubbed through. I sealed those with flash tape. However, the rain was still getting in. I then noticed, as others have, that the whole thing is degrading away and the little squares are all little holes, it is now wet through inside and smelling of damp. Everything inside is also damp and green. I need a whole new cover, which lets face it, does not mean the same will not keep happening. This is obviously a manufacturing fault that needs addressing. The only good thing I can say is that its still standing throughout all the storms we've had recently, its just not keeping the rain out. Question is, do I buy a replacement cover and hope it stays intact or buy a shed shape one and try to reinforce the roof to stop birds claws going through? These should last a lot longer than a year, as previous ones I have had have done.

I purchased this to serve as a DIY poly-shed to store tools and other items rather than growing. Following other reviews I decided to reinforce this with a wooden frame below, and C16 treated timber for doors/support. I drilled into the timber and bent some of the pipes to fit this design as you may notice it doesn't look exactly like the product images.With extra support the frame is very sturdy compared to without - it was very very wobbly. One bit negative is the measurements are inaccurate, this is listed as 3x3m however it is actually 295cmx295cmx2m. I only discovered this after building the bottom frame first only to realise the product is not truly 3m wide and I had to adjust my frame afterwards.The instructions provided were poor, only 3 images with missing detailed instructions & in french with poor english translations. If you are to purchase this I suggest looking up tutorial videos on similar products as they are all essentially the same assembly wise and a video format is more easier to understand.I will continue to update this review as it goes through the upcoming new year seasons.

Perfect size for my needs. Takes a little while to fit together, but instructions are straightforward. Just make sure not to tighten the screws on the arch to allow holes to align and then tighten. Stability good, so far. Zip nice and smooth. Love the cover is supplied so that you just unfold and drape over the frame.

1. Assembly & set upI've ordered the largest one of the ones offered. The set up is very easy. The simple 2 sheet instructions follow a similar pattern so you don't need an IKEA style science degree to put it up.It's recommended to have 2 people to put it up. I've done it alone and with someone and it makes sense as the initial set up needs a counterweight or support.It is possible to set up alone if you are savvy but an extra pair of hands really makes sure there is no strain put on the bolts & frame.2. SturdinessNow, initially, I've secured it with many heavy duty tent pegs. However, I found out it wasn't efficient on its own. They do recommend it to dig it down and I have. Too shallow initially, as due to its sheer size, it was unearthed on occasion. However, I dug it deeper down & secured it with boulders, tent pegs and zip ties for the cover at the base (see pictures attached). It is well secured, solid structured, the cover is pretty thick, the inner straps (although few in number I found them to be sufficient with all other things added since the frame and the stitching wrapped around nicely).3. Value for moneyI feel its good quality. We have been happy and impressed with it so far. You could say it would be nice for some pegs to come with it but it depends on where you place it and how well you dig it down. In our allotment it was getting direct flow from the wind. If you don't have much experience, be safe rather than sorry.4. ServicePrompt and efficient delivery. Had an issue initially with the first polytunnel however I contacted amazon customer service & it was fixed instantly. Was very impressed.Happy customers overall!

If you live in an area without any wind then buy this as it will do the job BUT if you have a open are that has wind from time to time wouldn't recommend it, had this over in the corner of my garden and the minute there was 20-30 mile an hour wind it bent and broke. It was very easy to setup and worked well as a green house until the wind came lol 😆😆😆

Unfortunately, the polytunnel didn’t hold up well – it was installed correctly, but after just two days and some wind, it was damaged. Disappointed with the quality, and sadly, I wouldn’t recommend it.

Speedy delivery, its up, its sturdy and I love it ... ty
