The 2 piece raised garden bed is a good buy and a nice addition to my patio area. The self watering feature is great when away from home and it helps with over watering. The unit is sturdy and well made. I had an issue with a broken part but this was quickly remedied by the company.
I ordered and received these garden boxes last week Ordering was easy and delivery prompt. I was able to assemble the 4 boxes easily and set them on stands in my yard. I filled them with potting soil and have a tomato plant in one and cucumber plant in one; the other 2 are awaiting plants. I am very pleased with my purchase and recommend them to others. Pat D
Very well designed, with flexible configurations. We'll see how they hold up to the elements.One "opportunity for improvement" is that the caps for the corner posts have holes in the center, and there are no caps for the feet, which may be placed on/in the earth. It would have been really nice to have the option for closed caps and caps for the feet. Where I live, we have LOTs of spiders, lizards, bees, and even very small snakes which may nest in the corner posts. Also the feet will no doubt pick up some dirt if/when placed on the ground, meaning that if they are moved to a clean area (which is likely in my case), they will likely make a bit of a mess. None the less, they are very good for my need (to provide some protection for some plants in baskets and small pots), and I'm happy I bought them.
Other reviews complained about the small size, but upon receipt, I found them acceptable and useable. Boxes are best used for shallow root flowers like annuals.
Cheaply manufactured plastic. The weight of the dirt and water combo presses the sides and the floor out, which leaves the already shallow boxes limited to fill with enough dirt to grow anything. Also, you can't move them because the legs fall off. The piping doesn't quite fit on the top to give the boxes a finished look. Too expensive for the price I paid.
They are perfect¡ exactly what I had hoped they looked like!! Haven¡¯t tackled the assembly because I¡¯m on a vaca!! Thank you for these planters and following up to make sure everything was as I was expecting.. Bess
