Deluxe Access Growhouse, Mini Greenhouse, Cold Frame

This item was purchased because of it's flexibility as a growhouse, a mini greenhouse and as a cold frame and I am satisfied that it will fulfil all three functions. It is well designed, robust, practical and yet looks good in the process. The assembly instructions are in plain straightforward English and there are a number of very helpful online videos which I would recommend be viewed prior to assembly. The toughened glass is a feature which I find very reassuring when young children are about although getting all of the necessary glazing delivered intact can be challenging as carriers will not insure this in transit and can be guilty of treating it accordingly.The first part of a five part consignment, the framework boxes, arrived in the North of Scotland in just over 24 hours. A day later a box of glass arrived, followed by a further two boxes five days later. The final box took a mysterious detour to Northern Ireland and on arrival at the local Fedex Depot in Inverness was damaged to such an extent they refused to deliver it on Health and Safety grounds. It was replaced immediately by Access and a pane was again found to be damaged on arrival. A further consignment was sent out with a different carrier and arrived safely.The growhouse is first class and in my opinion will be a considerable asset in any garden environment. I am delighted with my purchase and must take this opportunity to applaud the efforts of the extremely pleasant and professional staff at Access Garden Products who responded so quickly and effectively to my delivery issues to ensure that the matter was resolved.I thoroughly recommend both the product and the company.

As others have said this is a very high quality product. I assembled it with the help of my 88 year old dad who is a retired engineer. Even he could not find any way in which the grow house could be modified to better meet his exacting standards. This is a first ever, he always finds some way to improve absolutely everything he buys. High praise indeed!

I recently purchased the Access 4-foot Deluxe Value Grow House but did not build it for two months. On building it, one of the glass panels shattered on me. This is not a reflection of the quality of the glass which is 3mm toughened glass. When shattered, it did indeed collapse into small fragments, a pain to clear up but safer than having shards of glass around. I contacted the company on a separate matter which indirectly referred to the shattered glass. They picked up on this and immediately sent me a replacement, something I did not ask for but well appreciated. I hasten to add that the reply came on a Bank Holiday; beyond the call of duty. The Customer support was second to none, and equal only with a few of the best.As for the product, calling it a value grow house may imply it is not the top spec but excellent for the money. This grow house, contrary to it’s name, is a robust bit of kit made of well-engineered quality materials. I anticipate many years of use. Say goodbye to budget plastic greenhouses, this will save money on repeated purchases. Some reviewers refer to panes rattling; not the case if you are patient and adhere closely to the instructions. The sliding doors stand on a liner allowing them to run smoothly and with the deluxe model you get nice large handles. I like the simplicity of the shelving system. There were reviewers less happy but these fold away nicely and do not cast large shadows. The Deluxe version has removeable glass shelves, a terrific addition which had extended the growing area significantly. These are 4mm reinforced glass and fit for purpose. The misting system is a nice touch but I cannot review this as I have not tried it yet. Unlike wooden grow houses, having clear glass all around your plants maximises the light and heat. It has heated up rapidly in a mild sun and once too hot was easy to regulate using the top doors. I suspect I will choose to spoil myself by purchasing the louvre vents sometime.I found building it simple as I took the time to watch the uTube videos they had posted. I would recommend all purchasers do look at the video for your model. The only tool required for its completion was a screwdriver and maybe pliers to hold one or two of the nuts to tighten. I personally did not need the latter.In summary, this is a quality item at a good price, ideal for a small garden where space is at a premium. It is simple to build if you read the instructions and watch the video and backed by excellent customer support.

Great quality with stainless fittings and good quality glass. Does take a good days work to assemble but worth it.It looks good too and looking forward to seeing my plants grow 😀 The shelves are great for trays but not so good for pots as the spacing of the bars is too wide. I changed the spray system too the left hand hand side by using a step drill to make a hole in the side panel, pretty easy really, but maybe this hole should already be there for the option.

Fantastic build quality. I have been using my new greenhouse for 6 weeks and wanted to give some feedback. Not only was this a snap to assemble and customise myself, it is rock solid. Despite high winds, this greenhouse stayed put and has been a joy to use. So - very easy to put together (one person can do it) and impressively simply construction - that means less parts to break, go wrong, need replacement. When it comes to use, ventilating is pretty simple (although I wish I had bought the automatic louvre option) and the shelving systems internally are very flexible - allowing you to change setup and levels very quickly for all the shelving parts. Easy to set up, works beautifully and has clearly been designed by gardeners. I was worried that this was a lot of money for a small greenhouse but this will last for a very long time. I am very happy that I bought such a quality product and the results in terms of plant growth this year have been amazing. I was missing one small part from the pack (or it got lost) - access shipped it out to me straight away. What more can I say? If you're thinking of buying one, you won't regret getting a quality setup.

We've had this now for nine months and my gardener wife is still delighted with it. The materials are of great quality. It was pretty hard to assemble for someone like me with minimal DIY skills, and it took me 2 days to do it. But for the price and quality it was worth the effort, and it won me a lot of brownie points at home! I can certainly recommend it.
