So far I've harvested radishes, carrots, chives, eggplants, two kinds of bell peppers, and cucumbers. I don't know how long the plastic sides will hold up under the intense sun where I live, but they're not degrading noticeably yet."
"While browsing the books in Menards I saw the All New Square Foot Gardening (SFG) book by Mel Bartholomew, and knew this is what I needed to have a garden for the next growing season. (Of course I ordered the book from Amazon after researching various books on gardening) and got all fired up to try the square foot gardening system. As I comtemplated what I would need to make the gardening beds to put alongside my fence (exellent plans in Mel's book), I researchd some more on Amazon and found this lovely raised bed kit. I initially ordered one of the Lifetime Raised Garden Bed Kits, put together a single bed, and liked it so much I immediately ordered another, which would give me 4 single beds, or two double beds."
"If you do this (as I have), you still only have one cold frame. But once you have the cold frame, you'll be able to have home grown lettuce even in cold November (New Hampshire here), and Kale will grow in even colder temps."
"Product itself snapped together easily, but if you stack them it does not snap together, only rests on top, so it does not line up properly."

For those who mentioned removing and replacing their tunnel each day, I just push the material all down to one side when the weather is nice enough and/or I want my plants to get some rain. Another nice thing, if you only wanted to cover a few plants or need less than the full length, is that you could easily take out a hoop or two and make it shorter. This is actually preferable to me in many winter type instances; you don't want your plants getting wet and then having to endure freezing temperatures. If anyone is wondering about dimensions: (since I took it all apart and measured) The size of the finished fabric, laid out flat, is 46" wide x 150" long. Also, wanted to pass on that I have found these "Re-Pins" http://www.amazon.com/DeWitt-Company-Re-Pins-Red-Count/dp/B004SI6FG8/ref=sr_1_1?s=lawn-garden&ie=UTF8&qid=1416641051&sr=1-1&keywords=re-pins to be an excellent product for non-permanent anchoring of frost and shade fabric, plastic etc."
"I just ordered another one to put in my chicken run to give them shade."
"It's lightweight and easy to move around the garden as needed."
"This tunnel protected my seedlings until they were big enough to survive exposed."
"Appears to be well made- the hoops are sturdy and the cloth seems to be quite durable as well."
"I used these for the first time on my raised bed vegetable garden and it extended the growing season by 6 weeks through our cold fall nights in Minnesota!"
"Solution was to use a long vinyl picnic tablecloth, the kind with fuzzy stuff underneath and put over the top and then attach with clothes pins."
"Haven't had any strong winds or rain yet so unable to assess how they will hold up."

"The cover has enough lee-way to slip on and off easily, as well as ties to hold it in place, and extends well to the ground, to act as a barrier to curious house cats and naughty puppies. The shelves don't attach into place - they lay on top of the shelving bars, and it is absurdly easy to unbalance a shelf such that the shelf tips over and drops all your plants on the ground, spilling dirt and seeds everywhere. Don't let this put you off your purchase, though, as there is a simple solution: Buy some cheap cable ties (for example, Belkin 7.5IN Multicolored Cable Ties 52 Pieces) and use them to cinch the shelves in place."
"I used the aforementioned zip ties to secure fluorescent grow lights to the rods on the inside of the greenhouse and ran the cords through the bottom to a timer. Honestly, attaching my own grow lights made me love this greenhouse."
"We planted our seeds a couple of weeks ago, and every one of the 40 small pots of plants inside have sprouted and are already about 2-3 inches high (8 varieties of tomatoes, acorn squash, zucchini, cukes, and lots more, already looking great and should be ready to plant in the garden by the time the weather warms up enough.). p.s... final note: when our seed pots are ready to plant, and the little green house is empty, we use wide/low terra cotta bowls, add a few rocks in the bottom for drainage, add soil, and add romaine lettuce seeds. As soon as I use the lettuce in one bowl, I refill it with new soil and seeds, and keep rotating the lettuce to use as it's ready from one bowl to the next, and it keeps me going with lettuce clear through the fall til cold weather hits."

"Purchased this set and the lighting is just as good as my low-voltage lights (see photos for comparison)."
"Working great so far."
"Every light turned on but the one closest to the porch light and even that one turned on the minute the porch light was turned off."
"Update...we had one of the lights stop working and I contacted the company. They actually sent an entire new box of lights, which I did not expect. We have a large property and use a lot of lights."
"I am very happy with the amount of light they provide and the easy installation and ESPECIALLY the response of the company to my comment."
"I ordered 1 set of 6 solar lights. Having a lifetime guarantee is unheard of for solar lights. If you are looking for solar lights these are the ones to get."
"These lights are well crafted and very high quality."
