I bought the smaller model last year and the transparent plastic disintegrated over the winter months, the frame rusted too, I ended up buying a no-name replacement with green reinforced plastic and was surprised to see the build quality better than Miracle-Gro.

One thing to note is that this is probably using the Miracle Gro name under license. I got a "Miracle Gro" composter that was horrible, and when I contacted them for support, they had me go to some no-name Chinese brand. I suspect this is the same situation.

I bought a greenhouse that was like this one for around the same price at Big Lots years ago. It was easy to put together and looked nice when it was new. I had plants in it and they were doing great... until we had a windy thunderstorm. The greenhouse got completely destroyed. Thinking about it later, I'm not sure it would have held up to any snow either since I use this to get plants growing earlier in late winter. You may get lucky with one, but if I do it again someday, I will try something that is much more sturdy.
Not a bad deal. However, the one linked below is much better. While not on sale now, I got it for $53 last July. I actually have 2 of them. Had one up from April until November last year with no issues at all. Light snow just slid off the top, and it was not effected by wind for me. The poles are a bigger diameter and the material is thicker than the cheaper ones.
These can absorb some heat from the sun on sunny days, but it is quickly gone at night. I use a small space heater inside for fall and early spring nights. Being in 6B, I would not even try anything in winter. If you are in a warmer zone, you may be able to use it more in the winter.
It will be 27 here tonight, so I will be using a heater to keep the temps between 45 and 50. I only have overwintered plants from inside the house in there now. Even with the heater, these heated temps would not be good for seedlings.
I have this exact one, sold under different name thru woot and was much cheaper ($26) at that time.
For what I paid, it was worth it - can serve as a greenhouse or trellis for my small garden.
A few notes:
1. The connectors are plastic and if under prolonged exposure to sun (uv ray), it can crack and break. So I use some left over material in house to wrap up the plastic to avoid cracking.
2. The "shelf" shown in the pictures are thin metal lattice and will need to use the supplied zip tie to tie to the metal bars. The shelf can not bear too much weight (very bendable). It is ok for light pots, but for heavier pots (eg: 10+ lb), it needs to be large enough to sit on the metal bars as well.
3. The clear plastic cover has initial plastic smell which goes away after 1 week or 2 and does not have the best stitchings. I had one area about 6in long that was open, so I just used some alien tape to patch it up.
Overall, the greenhouse works and is light to move around and relatively easy to assemble. It can last a few years if you take care of it properly but it is definitely not heavy duty.
This is basically a one or two season greenhouse. It will not last much longer than that. If there's any sort of high winds, this thing is gone. I even had bricks around it and it still ripped apart.
I have the smaller version of these. I use mine as an indoor greenhouse to start my seeds in a humid condition. I also purchased some grow lights to zip tie on. Worked like a charm.

I wonder if this would be secure enough to keep critters away from my fruits? I grow my pineapples in 3 gallon pots so that I can move them into my lanai once they start fruiting to keep them away from critters but would prefer to keep them in the sun for those 6-8 months while the pineapples mature. I'm guessing raccoons and possums would just squeeze in underneath and even if I anchored the bottoms down they could just rip through the thin plastic.... anyone is here use these for this purpose?
