      Thank you! I really was surprisingly easy and I still can't get over the quality! We are going to leave it up all year! I can't wait to experience every season from this bubble! :D

    Hahaha I love the celebration at the end. There were some silly mistakes but yeah it really was so super simple to put together. Far more user error than anything. Who knew reading instructions helped haha.

    DOES ANYONE OR HAS ANYONE BROKE DOWN THE PRICING IN DIY TERMS WITH PVC PIPING ETC \ VELCRO AND PLASTIC LINER ?
    JUST WONDERING.
    P.S
    THIS BUILD IS GREAT MAYBE ADD VENTILATION THROUGH THE FLOOR BOARDS AND OUT THE SIDES OF THE STAND / BASE..
    GREAT JOB

    I highly encourage you to buy an igloo. I'm going on year 2 with mine. Idk what state you're in but I can tell you how to heat it. I do believe a mattress would fit in it.

    Does the plastic lose its ‘wrinkles’ after a while? In hotter weather? My one hesitation about this dome ( against the more expensive one) is if it looks messy.

    Weve been thinking about getting one. Can you tell us the pros and cons to this. Also can you fit a mattress double in it. We live at a big lake and woods around us and we were thinking how to just sleep outside when the fireflies were out. What size platform did ya all build. And how cool to set up together thanks for video

    • @ShelleyVanWitzenburg
      @ShelleyVanWitzenburg  Год назад

      We had it up for 2 years in the Chicago suburbs, but then moved out of state. The skeleton feels indestructible, but the plastic cover should definitely not be left out all season long because it gets really dirty and could be punctured by branches.

      Yes! However, if you expect lightning, I would suggest going indoors.

    • @ShelleyVanWitzenburg
      @ShelleyVanWitzenburg  6 лет назад +2

      Thank you! It is super sturdy and is still standing after several seasons. We're just outside of Chicago and get rough winters and storms. You just want to remove the cover so branches don't tear it. Otherwise, the skeleton is REALLY strong.

    The fumes from the pvc cover aren`t good for your health. I wouldnt recommend spending too much time inside especially in sunny, hot weather.

      It comes with clamps that can be screwed down into the base. It also came with bags that can be filled with sand-we didn't end up using those.

    • @sweeptight
      @sweeptight 8 лет назад

      It's definitely possible. We put it in a very wooded area (obviously) but there aren't any limbs in direct contact with it. I think as long as you don't put it somewhere where it's touching trees, it's fine. :)

    • @angelawambo3074
      @angelawambo3074 8 лет назад

      thank you. just thought in a storm or windy day as branches break off and fall, which happens quite often, (we just had branches go through a metal roof yikes! )Houghton it probably wouldn't be good idea to put in our wooded area. hate to lose $800+
      great video though on setting it up. thank you

      Hi Mickey,
      If you keep the windows closed, it gets pretty toasty. But with the placement of the two windows, it's designed to keep great airflow... and it does. :) You can read my full blog post for more: sweeptight.com/2016/06/garden-igloo-enjoy-outside-bubble.html

      My daughter hired one for a day and i having seen one in the flesh i have to say its not worth the money. The frame is stable but its not what i`d call rigid or strong because it has too much flex in it. Here`s an identical size dome i built recently that is rock solid with zero flex. It cost me £70/ $98us in materials, 2 days to fabricate the parts and about 3 hours to put together on my own. ruclips.net/video/jX8o0x6cIOg/видео.html
