Yes, I got mine from them last year and I'm really pleased with it check out this thread

They erected it for me and I wish I'd got them to put a clear roof on at the time. We thought we would manage with a clear tarpaulin to save money, but it just kept filling up with water so we then had to put on a corrugated plastic roof which has been great (used the tarpaulin to then cover side next to fence and the front to roll up and down in severe bad weather - so it wasn't wasted)

 

Another thing I wish I'd have done was because one side is up against the fence I should have just had it solid, not with mesh.

 

Hope this helps

Yes, we bought one last summer and assembled it ourselves. The quality is great and all the panels fitted together easily. The clear corrugated roof was definitely a good buy - has survived all the snow and recent heavy rain.

Hi, yes, I have a 10' x 6' run from them and can recommend them.

 

Pictures of my run here. Note that the actual run for sale there does not include the custom modifications in the picture - I paid extra for those.

 

Edited to add: They put mine up for me. I agree with the others, my roof has been worth its weight in gold, especially when the tree decided to drop all its applies on one day last November!
