The planter was easy to assemble, even for me! I had to drill extra holes for the rails that hold the lower slats, but that worked fine. All others holes were pre-drilled and the instructions were easy to follow. I’m applying tung oil to preserve the wood.
This is exactly as pictured. It went together just fine and we put a coat of preserver on the wood. The wheels make it a breeze to move in an out of the sun. There are 4 drain holes on the bottom, but we added a layer of rock. My lettuce and herbs are doing very well.
This is a very good product for basic or intermediate plant growers. The instructions were not as detailed as I thought it would be as I basically put it together and realized the legs needed to be rearranged to accommodate the lower cart. Also, be careful with some portions the wood to potentially prevent getting splinters.
Overall, this is very maneuverable, sturdy, and cost effective plant bed. The price is well worth it!! I would recommend this for anyone and may buy another in the future should I decide to expand my garden.
This raised garden bed consists of quality materials and was easy to put together. I looks great - the picture is an accurate representation. Looking forward to growing some herbs and veggies.
The Planter looks good, however, it is extremely fragile and can’t take the weight of the dirt. The wood is thin and weak, the screws and hardware are cheap and weak. After maybe a week of of use, the sides were busting out and one of the bottom wheels was stripped out after I moved it maybe 2 ft. I had to secure the sides with a ratchet strap and secure the bottom wheel with duck tape. I would not buy this product.
This garden bed is beautiful. I had to hire my local hardware store to put it together, so if you're not handy or you're older, prepare to spend extra for assembly. Also, I'm going to apply polyurethane today to protect the wood.
