Default Aluminum built greenhouses: are they better than wooden built?

I am in the process of building a medium sized greenhouse for my personal use. I’ve done some research on the different types of greenhouses but am a bit confused about how much difference there is in a wooden build greenhouse and an aluminum build greenhouse. Does it make much of a difference and are there more benefits to the aluminum built verses the wooden build greenhouse? I can see where the aluminum built might be easier to heat but also I am concerned that it might get too hot. What are your opinions on this subject; I’d like to have as many facts before I make my decision. There are positive arguments on both sides of the topic and there are negatives as well; so I decided to come to the experts in the field and get your honest opinion on which you think is the wisest choice for me. I might add that I live in a very Northern state and our winters are brutal; this is one of the reasons I’m considering the aluminum over the wood; it might keep my plants safer in the brutal winter months.
