Perfect Planter

Great solid wood planters to protect plantings from animals. Easy to assemble and nicely made with bonus liner. Perfect solution for a raised bed garden with wheels for easy moving.
Had some problems understanding directions. A neighbor was able to get it together in a little over an hour. I stained & planted, already showing a little green. I love it!! Especially because I can move it around, even into garage on cold nights.
Received in a timely manor..took a little while to put together. we like it..got herbs and tomatoes growing..bigger than it looks..is easy to move around. Nice to not have to bend over.ty
Looks just like the picture. Takes longer to assemble and a power screw driver is recommended. I do like it and will put a wood sealer on it to help it last longer.
Assembly was time consuming and not the 20 min as indicated in the instructions. Pre-drilled holes were not always present where instructions indicated. Drill was not indicated as a necessary tool for assembly. Instructions were not clear and often confusing. Would not recommend this for purchase, unless customer has extreme patient or a handyman in the family Also no care instructions were provided. Very disappointing. Would never have purchased , had I know it would take 3 days to assemble, and I still have to purchase a drill so that I may attach shelf.
I've assembled many items of furniture and such in the past. This was one of the worst experiences I've had, though. The screw holes are not drawn onto the pictographs, there is only a sentence or two in the descriptions for each section, and it's difficult to discern which way pieces fit (as there are several ways they can go together). Also, there are fourteen boards that need to be screwed in on both sides. This part could have been done during manufacturing without taking much more room in the shipping box. I highly recommend using an electric drill unless you have extraordinary hand strength. As cedar doesn't last for too long, I stained the wood. All of this made the project take days to put together. I added stars because once it’s together it’s beautiful. As for durability, time will tell.
