The setup of the 6x3 meter tunnel house was fairly easy and straightforward. We did make sure to duct tape over the joints for extra sturdiness. We pegged the corners and middle down with weedmat pegs. Once it was all set up we had high winds through the area and while other garden items blew all around our backyard, the tunnel house didn't even seem to flinch. The only "negative" is the zippers will wear out eventually on the doors. Trying to keep the bugs out they will see a lot of wear and tear.
Our tunnel house has handled some big winds with no issues. My plants are loving it, especially the eggplants! It would be nice if the doors were double zipped with screens, but that would add a reasonably large additional cost, so that's fair.
If you have put up a tent - you can do this. Easier with 2 people. We had it up and covered in no time. We anchored it down with waratahs. The poles are well marked out. The space inside is amazing ! It gets warm in there so the windows and 2 doors help. It does exactly what we wanted - grow veggies and propagate plants without the hassle of weeds, slugs and snails. We are very happy with it.
Our green house has ripped at the zip even though they say its reinforced.
It sounded a good size but wow the internal space is huge! It comes with easy to follow instructions which our handyman had frame up in 6 hours and next day - easier with a 2nd pair of hands - put the cover over and anchored to ground. An added tip is buy some self adhesive foam strips to place on hoops before putting on frame as we have tunnel house in high wind area and wanted to avoid wind movement wear of cover against hoop joins. Looks fantastic and had 2 queries where we got it and didn't believe the price for the size and quality! Another person wanted to just buy it off of us!

Super easy to put together, this is my second one but much bigger, the plants just seem to grow faster and much bigger. Hubby built garden boxes down the length of the tunnel house and there is still plenty of height for tomato plants to grow...there is only myself and hubby but we grow for friends as well. LOVE this product!!
Great product, solid and easyish to put together.
Awesome growing tomatoes already A++ product
I have had my 6M tunnel house up only a couple of weeks, but I can say it went together just fine. It takes a bit of reading between the lines to figure where everything connects together but is pretty manageable. The cover fits over pretty well and so long as the zips hold out I think this should last and be great. The dimensions did catch me out as I tried to assemble it straight over a 3m raised garden. Thats when I found out its a bit less than 3m so If you are putting it in a tight space or fitting something into it I would suggest part assembling and measuring the dimensions yourself.
This is a robust tunnel house. Easy to put together with one person. This would have 5 stars if there was a way to have the door areas open but meshed to keep the bugs out.
