I like the MU6 - it is a good size for my purposes. I found the versatility of two roof windows and the door in two halves to be useful for regulating the temperature on hot days. The ordering and delivering were all easy, and I had no problems there. The assembly caused a few muttered oaths though.

I hope you had a happy Thanksgiving. I purchased the Juliana Greenhouse to start a business in custom garden designs, specifically called the living wreath.

Regarding your website. I would like to see an easier way to get to your accessories. I had a difficult time finding items that I would need for better assembly ie: the base framing, vents and automatic vent windows.
Maybe if you linked the accessories with each greenhouse with suggestions on what extras are available. I am totally an amateur when it comes to greenhouses so I loved your description of the time it would take for assembly.

My wife loves it. She spend more time planning her garden now, than picking on me. The greenhouse saved my marriage!

We love it! We plan to insulate it this spring for the seedlings but right now as of Nov 24 we are letting it sleep. It extended our season by two months at least. We got a killing frost in the middle of Sept. Rather early for us but not unusual. 

We put five 30gal garbage cans filled with water to help with our cold nights. I think it helps but we did have to supplement
the heating last spring. With the insulation and the water, the heating costs should really be reduced.

We use it mainly for the seedlings in the spring for the garden. We do the local farmers' market in Durango. Then we moved the houseplants out of the house for the summer and were able to extend our season with a few plants from the garden in the fall. The frangipani went crazy as did the geraniums in the fall. 

At the time that we ordered, there wasn't that much on the web site except greenhouses. So, as far as ordering accessories we just had to ask which was fine. The shipping was great, no problem there, and the driver had no problem finding us. 

We had to be very careful putting the greenhouse up as we can get some pretty strong spring winds. But we did it and it only took us the weekend. We had the foundation done ahead of time. We actually put insulation 2 feet down around the edges and filled the floor with about 5 inches of gravel. It is so dry here we really don't have a problem with things staying wet for long. 

The gaskets are a great design and the sections just pop right in. They really hold too, considering some of the winds we have had. The only problem we had was in the door. It wasn't clear how to really put the door together but we figured it out and improvised. 

We really like the automatic vents. During the summer we left the door partially opened to help with ventilation. We get a lot of intense sun here. We will probably get a shade cloth of some sort next year.

The picture I am sending you was taken in November 2001 just before the really cold weather set in. Spot was chosen as the model for the picture. At that time we had tomatoes, peppers, basils, lemongrass, other herbs, cactus and succulents, and flowers filling the greenhouse. For almost a month the temperatures at night were below 32 and things inside were doing
fine with no supplemental heat. But once the temperature dipped to the teens that was too cold and we chose not to supplement the heat.

We really are pleased with it. It wasn't too hard to put up and it is a joy to use. We have a neighbor who stopped by to see it and now wants one. We gave them your name.
