How robust are they? Is it perspex, rather than glass? Am a but worried about where it would be sited, as whilst sheltered, there is a drip from a gutter there.

I got the lower one last year and it seems fine. Was looking st that one too as plastic greenhouse blew apart in the wind. Does this have a back panel or fit against a wall?

It is light and quite flimsy, but it is cheap.

I got the smaller one last year, and the panels are a light corrugated plastic, but even so it survived a lot of 'weather' pretty well!

It has a plastic back panel, but because of its higher centre of gravity it would need to be against a wall to stop it falling over.

This one belongs to someone on a Facebook page I'm on.

I've ordered one. And thanks to your picture, I may paint it pink! Worried about it being too flimsy, will have to find a way to attach it to the fence
