My personal experience, for whatever it may be worth, has been positive. They are slammed all the time, so I know now they don't even have the 30' wides available.

I have bought 3 of the 30' x 60', they have the pics featured on the karmens website, and just tried to get another this year, but had to settle for a 20' x 70' as the 30' are backlogged too long.

Anyway, Kimi is always very knowledgeable and aware of options with the build out that can help a lot.

Anyway, thumbs up!

Yes I bought 2 30x60's last spring & they are fabulous greenhouses.

Have you seen my thread on diy steel framed greenhouses? Most of the pictures are gone. You could definitely build your own for less.
I have built a karmens 24ft wide. They are decent basic houses but taxed for what they are. Definitely no conleys or anything. Everything they sell parts wise is also taxed. From wiggle wire channel to tarp to automation stuff.
The frames aren't the expensive part. The plastics and foundation lumber and little fixings, endwalls, kills ya.

Karmens basic kit for a 30x60x15 is around $10,000 including cover & end walls with double wide rolling doors on both ends. Hired a local crew to build both for $6,500 +$1000 lumber. So I have around $14,000 into each greenhouse. Just got a quote from Kermans for solar light dep kit including panda plastic $4900. I will be ordering 2 light dep kits soon.

That seems a little taxed for blackout. Think you can get both kits for less then one karmens kit locally. Just with the way the market is you got to try to save where you can.
Greenhouse mega store in sac sells 130ft x 53ft rolls of reinforced blackout for 1600$ that's enough to do both 30x60s.
Im not trying to pimp my own stuff on here, but i sell auto blackout kits minus tarp way cheap and if i do it at that price others do to. For 2 motors + 120v smart wifi controllers or dumb solar controller setup for 1000$.
Both houses 4k
