Just started looking to buy one and would like some recommendations. Size, style etc. Budget around £1000.
Thanks 😊

Not that cheap unfortunately, I think from about £1600 depending on size, and more for the coloured ones but I highly recommend Rhino, so well made. We're delighted with ours. And made in UK too. Personally I'd buy as big as you have space for/can afford.

Thank you, for a decent one, I can stretch the budget. I do want one which will last so perhaps need to pay a bit more. I'll take a look

it really is a case of how long is a piece of string. I have two and have had many in the past; prices ranged from free second hand to really expensive. There really is very little to go wrong with them so it’s as much as case of style and features as anything else.

if you know you’re going to use it I would say get the biggest you can afford; taller is better if you’re growing tomatoes and cucumbers; get it put up professionally; get roof vents with automatic openers. Think about water supply nearby, and power nearby too if you can. What sort of flooring do you want? Mine both are on soil because I like to grow stuff in the ground but you may prefer a solid base.

If its your first don’t rush to buy loads of shelving etc, wait until you’ve used it a bit to work out what you really want.

Thank you, yes I want one I can stand in easily. Will have a water supply and part will be hard base, one side soil/raised bed. Am taking all your advice on board! Much appreciated.
