    I've had a few of these and have had the same problem each time. Wind blows hard enough that either they blow over, or the frame gets twisted or snapped. The whole thing isn't heavy or solid enough.

    I've decided this year that I will *attempt* to make something out of wood and twinwall sheets.

      I have one like this in the corner of my front fence. It is very sheltered there and I have made small holes in the plastic through which I have pushed cable ties (the sort that you can undo with your fingernail in the appropriate place). The cable ties are fastened to the upright of the fence and the bottom is secured with several bricks. It hasn't moved in 2 years and the cover is still intact.

        Like Burnie I use mine inside my main g-house as I wouldn't even dare to think of trying it outside where I live because it would probably end up somewhere in Ireland!
        I work very hard so please don't expect me to think as well!
