Having seen the ad for Warehouse24 on here,I thought I would have a look. They seem a good size and seem good and cheap.

I will be buying it for the school allotment that we are doing and only have a very small budget. What I would like to know is has anyone bought one of them and do you think that they will stand up to the punishment that only a bunch of small children can dish out?

i bought one... it had brilliant plastic which is nearly impossible to tear so i bas really pleased with that BUT i got the 4.5m by 2m by 2m and put it up everything was perfect then one morning i came down to find it had blown over and the thin, weak, miserable steel frame had bent the welds were very weak... im going to get it fixed(although i need a special welder cause the metal is so thin) and then when its up im going to put industrial fish net over it and weigh it down with everything i can find...

so i would recommend it and it would definetely be great if you could weigh it down so the weak metal doesn't have a chance to bend... hope this helps

I Should add that I have had mine a year ( the frame has been repaired quite a bit!) and although the poly doesn't rip it does become quite porous. No need for watering inside it this winter
