    Hi there, I am contemplating buying a small greenhouse made with semi-rigid plastic panels (I have two small boys) all the blurb I have read says they are as good as glass ones, it basically looks like a conventional greenhouse with a double sliding door and a window opposite the door, the only difference being the plastic panels. I was wondering if anyone has used one and if so what are the pros and cons. There is an optional solar powered roof opening too, I suspect this may be a good idea, but look forward to any advice. Cheers

    Sorry folks I have been away on holiday, thanks jjordie for answering in my absence, in case anyone is still looking, the details can be found at www.norfolk-greenhouses.co.uk. I am still very pleased with mine and can recommend Norfolk Greenhouses, delivery was very quick and the greenhouse although fiddly to put together was not that difficult. If you can do flat packed furniture you will be ok!
