Is this any good, I know nothing about these things and not sure how much they are. Could someone please have a look and let me know if this is any good.

Thank you

Hmm, bit misleading that one, it's not a "poly tunnel" it's a cloche! and it's oly 5ft long. & there is no guarrentee that you can get it for that price as it's ot a buy now offer.

If you have a look at NA Kays website you can buy the hoopes & the plastic to make your own the size you want.

I wouldn't bother with that one as it wouldn't go across my lottie.

Hmm. I don't know much about polytunnels, but the seller doesn't give much of a description. You could email him and ask what grade of film it is and what the hoops are made of, and how it's secured into the ground. Also the front is open - pretty much all the others of this type I've seen for sale have ends you can close up. It looks like he's skimped a bit with the film! I wouldn't be confident this would stand up to much wind in a less sheltered site. Mind you, good price!

We paid about £20 for a 14ft one but it is useless, far too shallow. Will be making our own in future.

These were in Poundland late Summer for £1.00! Lots of ebayers bought them from there and stuck them on ebay.
I bought one in the shop as it was so cheap but they are very small and quite flimsy. I wouldn't have bothered at that ebay price especially as the postage brings it up to about £5.50.
