The Sigma 20 (Gen III) greenhouse is extremely pleasant to work in throughout the day due to the end-to-end airflow and the distinctive 7' (2.13-metre) roof height.
This is the first “real” greenhouse kit that I’ve ever owned. I was mostly able to assemble and install it by myself but there are certainly points where you need another set of hands. So far it has survived its first Ohio winter without major problems. A few thoughts:
1) the part labeling is pretty bad (the stickers fall off or don’t match what the book says), I spent a lot of time figuring out what part is what. Sometimes I assembled parts backwards so that was pretty frustrating
2) the poly panels ended up being a little wider than the greenhouse frame. This meant that I really struggled to maintain the “module spacing” to be able to properly secure the poly to the framework. You may have to rip a panel to width like I did
3) don’t skimp on anchoring your foundation into the dirt. If you live on a windy ridge top like I do you’ll want that peace of mind. I used two layers of 2x6 to make my foundation.
4) the roof vent kit is troubled. I wouldn’t put more than two in your greenhouse unless you want it to leak a lot. The chain is weak and I wish it would’ve just come with a poly panel instead of cutting one to size. The latch is my biggest issue, it is nowhere near substantial enough. But they do work and with the help of a bungee cord they’ve been holding on through Snow, ice and 40mph gusts.
5) I’m glad to hear that they upgraded the door handles and trim work. The version I have is pretty lackluster but it works okay. I used caulk, foam, tape and other gap filling…

Br forewarned and do NOT assemble following the included manual as those directions are not at all what is shown in the assembly videos on YouTube. Horribly written manual with steps out of order wreaks havoc on the construction.
We love our sigma greenhouse, it has kept our garden going during this winter. We installed a wood stove inside it! and the pipe did not destroy the poli! We are super happy with this greenhouse, we are planning on expanding it or buying a bigger one. I highly recommend this greenhouse, money very well invested! We live in Idaho for reference.
Thank you so much, Diana! We're thrilled to hear how well your Sigma 32 is performing through the Idaho winter. It's fantastic that you were able to install a wood stove and that the poly held up beautifully. Your experience keeping the garden going through winter is incredibly valuable feedback and will be so helpful for other growers in similar climates.
Thank you for the wonderful recommendation and for sharing how well your investment has paid off. Here's to many more successful growing seasons ahead!
The Booklet Instructions do not match the sequence of the video instructions which required rework.
I had lots of problems getting the end panel polycarbonate panels to line up properly, partly because the screw holes were correctly drilled on the bottom of the frame. The polycarbonate end panels should be installed after the doors and windows are installed.
The booklet instructions has you install the doubled-sided tape to the end of the polycarbonate panels, but the video shows installing the tape to the profile which works lot better. It should be only installed to one side of the profile which make installing much easier.
I could not get the panels on one end to line up correctly with the profile. I fought with it several hours, but it would not line up correctly. The one end fell right in place. I should have started from that end first.
The greenhouse is built very strong.
Hi Carl,
Thank you for taking the time to share your detailed feedback and for the 4-star review! We really appreciate you highlighting both the challenges you faced and the positive aspects of your Sigma Urban.
We understand how frustrating it can be when instructions don't align perfectly, and we're sorry the booklet and video sequences caused confusion and extra work during your build. Your insights about the double-sided tape application and the order of installing end panels versus doors and windows are incredibly valuable — we'll definitely pass these along to our product team for future improvements.
It sounds like you discovered some helpful techniques along the way, especially regarding the tape placement on the profile rather than the panels. These kinds of real-world insights from experienced builders like yourself help us improve the process for future customers.
We're glad to hear that despite the assembly challenges, you found the greenhouse to be built very sturdily. That's precisely what we aim for with our structures.
Thanks again for your patience during the build and for sharing your experience!
Located in mid upper Michigan, where the snow and wind can be a factor. The Sigma 20 is perfect for creating a controlled growing environment.
Think of it as a big Erector Set. It goes together easily. Just follow the instructions and you can't miss.
The staff from Planta were extremely helpful in coordinating shipping, etc. Give yourself a raise!
Thanks so much, John! We're thrilled to hear the Sigma 20 is working perfectly for your Michigan growing setup—those snowy, windy conditions are no joke! We'll definitely pass along your kind words to our team—they'll be excited to hear how helpful they were with your shipping coordination. Here's to many successful growing seasons ahead!
