4x2.5m Polyeco Spade
Bought 4x2.5m Polyeco Spade. Final finished product looks great, though several neg’s for buyers to note.
Construction is painfully slow for DIY. Took us more than 100 man hours over 3 weeks. Partly down to some days being limited to 2-3 hrs through sheer frustration. More than 550 fiddly nuts&bolts to fasten.
The instruction notes are limited.
Some parts of my order weren’t delivered, though that was quickly rectified without fuss.
Digging 18 x 350mm deep holes was hard going on my rocky ground.
The base is too flimsy and could be improved.
The self-tapping screws to hold down the ridges don’t work and trying to fit those became downright dangerous. That needs a major re-think.
Cutting the many panels needed for the end faces from a single 6mtr piece of Perspex was testing.
Fitting the roof vent cover needs the arms and dexterity of an octopus. It leaks, and the internal vent opener doesn’t fit.
Overall a decent product but with some things that could be improved to make it so much better. Consider paying for installation if you can afford it.
