Halls Popular 6x4 Greenhouse review
Halls Popular 6x4 Aluminium Greenhouse
By Tom Calder
We no longer recommend this model, so it no longer appears in our buying guides. In its place, we now recommend Palram Canopia Harmony 6x4 Polycarbonate Greenhouse (Grey) in our Greenhouses & cold frames guide.

Researched, not used. We haven't used this product. This review is built from the maker's specifications, owner reports and our own sizing.
What we like
- Long 12-year frame warranty is reassuring at this price
- Compact 6x4 footprint suits small gardens, patios and courtyards
- Choice of horticultural, toughened or polycarbonate glazing to match budget and site
Worth knowing
- Standard overlapping horticultural glass panes can slip or crack in strong winds if not carefully assembled
- A base and proper anchoring are usually needed for stability, adding to the cost

Who shouldn't buy this
Don't buy it if you're on an exposed, windy site or want a low-maintenance grow space that shrugs off knocks - a toughened-glass or polycarbonate model, or a sturdier range, will serve you better.
