Harbor Freight greenhouse

 I see that Harbor Freight has the small 6x8 greenhouse on sale for
$250. Has anyone here had any personal experience with them? It looks
mighty tempting, even to a cheap-skate like me.

Is this plastic covered or polycarbonate?  The plastic cover will NOT
survive a winter (and they don't sell a replacement).  But, it's cheap and
will do the job, sort of.

Sorry; should have said "here" which is in my .sig.
Upstate New York, U.S.  But it didn't survive very thoroughly, so unless
it's winter on Kaua'I...

It's polycarb panels, but the door looks sort of junky. I keep telling
myself I could build a better GH than that if I wasn't so lazy...
still, it looks tempting. Plastic sheets seems like they'd have to be
replaced too often. I see you are upstate NY AND a HAM. I'm on long
island now but have spent many summers up in Ithaca/Watkins Glen. I
haven't been on the air in a couple or three years but I used to hang
out a bunch on 40 and 80 meters - mostly cw on 40...
