Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons
The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

The exaco 1500 cold frame is not a bad deal. It's big enough to harden off all the tender starts for my 500 square foot garden. Placed on top of the old swiss chard patch and filled out with some transplanted beets.

There are 4 anchors included with the frame kit consisting of a mount and a metal anchor rod. It now comes with a temperature adjustable automatic opener that used to cost an extra $60. Auto vent works well.

The instructions are murky, but once you figure out what they're getting at, assembly goes smoothly. Assembly is easy except the automatic opener requires drilling some holes in the plastic, which i haven't undertaken yet.

The lexan glazing is amazingly strong and light. Pieces fit together solidly. The parts are good quality and sturdy.



Cons

No opening brackets, no connecting pieces to assemble panels. Directions refer to left, right, first and closest without any point of reference. For a product to be so cleverly engineered and so poorly explained is unforgivable.

Quality


There are 4 anchors included with the frame kit consisting of a mount and a metal anchor rod.


As an avid organic gardener of +30 years, i highly recommend this unit regarding quality and simplicity.


One small complain was the quality control on the hardware; two of the little wing-nuts arrived unthreaded (!


It came with the automatic opener cylinder.

Price


This should last a minimum of 10 years, so my cost is only $2.

    I purchased another greenhouse for 90 and it was absolute junk


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I had a half hour before i had to leave so i decided to lay out the pieces and get an idea of how they would go together when i returned


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I had the whole thing assembled with no tools before it was time to head out


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Also my kit had all the holes predrilled so perhaps the description here on amazon is for an old version

    The 2nd was placed right on top of the old swiss chard patch and filled out with some transplanted beets
