We bought a palram plastic shed. From start to finish, a disaster. Shed was delivered without notice as promised. Neighbor had to hold onto it. No compensation given. Shed was a nightmare to build. Poor instructions and terribly labelled parts. Shed was flimsy and took 6 of us to hold it together as the slightest wind would knock down any progress we made. Weeks later the shed was completely destroyed by the wind. This was after we had to strap the doors closed as they kept flying open. It isn't water proof. We came home to our shed in pieced. The company are refusing to offer any compensation whatsoever. Purchased from buy sheds direct. Stay away from palram and buy sheds direct. They claim the winds were to high on the day the shed was blasted to pieces. No comment on all the other parts of my complaint.

Palram Gewächshaus Rion Miserabel gearbeitete Einzelteile, die mit Feile erstmal passend gemacht werden müssen. Bohrlöcher müssen nachgebohrt werden, Schienen sind verbogen, Schrauben nicht gekennzeichnet. Der Aufbau ist eine Tortur. Wer weiß, wie lange dieser Schrott dann hält.

One positive in my experience with company was that the greenhouse arrived on time. I have had greenhouses for over 50 years and this is definitely the worst. Having moved house and wanting to buy a greenhouse that would require little maintenance, I bought this one. Supposedly, easy to erect with full picture instructions. It has now been over nine months, and the greenhouse is still not complete after a catalogue of problems! It was said the greenhouse could be erected by 2 people in half a day. No Way!! It took my wife and I several hours to just go through the 2 boxes to check all the parts. I didn't erect the greenhouse immediately as I needed to get a proper base laid for it. Don't expect much help from this company with problems. Customer services is virtually non-existent and the only way to contact them is by email, no telephone number to be able to speak to a real person! Every email I sent was not replied to for at least a week and subsequently longer until, eventually, they decided I hadn't replied quick enough to their response! I had been away on holiday and didn't see the email until I got home. So they closed the ticket and despite replying since I have heard nothing from them! Other issues: Missing and broken parts were replaced over several months but with little help with the construction from the picture instructions, which were far from clear or from customer services. Numerous design faults include - window fitting is very fragile and difficult to fit, and has already blown out several times. Fittings for holding the polycarbonate sheets onto to frame keep popping out of place. The replacements were worse as they were hard and couldn't be fitted in place. The seals around the door frame do not fit properly and keep popping out of the grooves. The angle bracket on the frame to hold the door securely when open is a good idea but, is in the wrong place, as the handle on the door doesn't meet it. Don't try erecting this greenhouse in cooler months of the year as the polycarbonate will become brittle and split or break during construction. After all this time the greenhouse is still not completed and several of the roof sections are not secure. On asking for the company to come and take the greenhouse back, I was told that I would have to deconstruct it, and return it, in original packaging after over 6 months of trouble!! My only advice to those of you considering buying a Palram Polycarbonate 6 x 8ft Canopia Eco Grow Greenhouse is DON'T. It will be expensive, frustrating and exasperating; and you may not get a finished product you can use.

Vordach Baldino von Palram bei Hornbach gekauft. Geliefert wurden gerade statt gebogene Profile als Tragelemente für die Polycarbonatplatten. Palram angeblich/tatsächlich nur über E-mail erreichbar. 3 x per E-mail durch Hornbach kontaktiert. 0-Antwort. Hornbach hat kulant reagiert und Ware zurück genommen und Geld erstattet. Ich werde nie mehr Palram Produkte kaufen.

Bought a 6X8 CANOPIA Skylight shed. This is the worst product I have ever bought in my 60+ years on this earth. VERY flimsy like a cheap plastic child's toy. Don't waste your money on this pile of junk. Did not even take it out the box the first panels and the door at the top of the box were .made of extremely thin and bendy plastic so I just taped the box back up and asked for a return. I bought online via Wickes and thankfully they have been very helpful and have asked Palram to collect it back from me.

My review of Canopia Balance 10 x 16 Greenhouse Kit. I’m giving Canopia a rating of 2 on this greenhouse kit as it came from the manufacturer. I will describe 3 major areas that cause me not to give them a higher rating. I purchased this greenhouse in November of 2023, but I just completed the assembly in June of 2024 due to waiting for 2 steel roof supports from Canopia. 1. Deceptive advertising - what I got is not the greenhouse they had pictured on their website, (as well as Lowe’s website, where I purchased my greenhouse). When buying a greenhouse on-line, the picture is an important part of making a decision, and it’s obvious that this false picture sells! The greenhouse shown in their picture had steel roof supports for every roof rafter, but the greenhouse they shipped to me was missing two of these steel supports for the center of the greenhouse. Canopia finally agreed to sell me the two steel rib supports even though their engineers said “they can’t be added”. The two steel supports finally arrived 16 weeks later, and now that I’ve installed them, the center section is more rigid and stronger. 2. The roof window vents are not attached to the roof! I couldn’t believe this when I came to this part of the assembly. There is a very small ridge, (approx. 1/16th inch) for the roof window to “rest on”, instead of being attached to the roof with some type of hinge. I can’t believe these roof windows would stay in place if left open during a moderate wind. I installed stainless steel piano hinges on each of the roof windows. 3. This greenhouse is more flimsy and weaker than it appears. The aluminum wall studs and roof rafters are made from very thin aluminum, and the corners, doorway, and back wall lack any type of extra support, making those areas pretty weak and flimsy. This is something you cannot tell from a picture. I did not give Canopia a 1 rating because I was able to add extra bracing in several places that resulted in producing a fairly strong greenhouse. I added ¾” steel angle iron around the door frame that helped square up and strengthen the entrance door. I added square aluminum tubing pieces from the side walls to each steel rib support which made the side walls more rigid. I also bought extra steel bracing from Canopia to strengthen the back wall. I replaced all the black plastic pieces with steel brackets and aluminum flat stock. After all my modifications and extra bracing, I am fairly satisfied with my greenhouse.

Canopy seems good quality, but arrived with most of the larger metal pieces badly scratched. Over 1.5months and 16 emails later (partly with Palram/Canopia, partly Costco), and still waiting for a resolution... Hard to recommend.

They shouldn’t be allowed to sell these sheds. Purchased the Canopia Skylight through Buy Sheds Direct and it is extremely flimsy, super thin plastic junk. The flooring won’t stop even a puddle from flooding the shed. It’s also tricky to assemble which would be fine if it was of decent build quality but it is sheet metal trash. Avoid Palram at all costs!
