What sort of sheds/greenhouses do beyonders have and where did you get them?

I really would like a shed / greenhouse in one however the costco one is $3300 and thats pretty steep.

The kits are flipping insane...

Looking at the typical construction - there's not much difference between a typical shed and a greenhouse... Other than the exterior sheeting; yeah there's ~200$ in bits and pieces (and most of the kits don't seem to include those) for ventilation / cooling...

I'm guessing it's the "Eco" tax :) Y'know saying it's Green - makes the price triple...

I have a shed from costco

I really like it, have used it for 2 years now and no issues. I think I paid about $800, was on sale recently at costco for that again but that sale ended.

We bought our shed from Shed Solutions, just had it built in the yard.

They matched ours to our house for body colour and the trim, paid approx $2300 for it.

I have the same one. Never had any problems with it.

I just built my own because I wanted a custom size that fit beside my garage and went right to the property line (7.5' x 14').

I think I was somewhere around $1500 and that was getting a little carried away (pilings, 2x6 sub floor etc).
