Excellent Product For The Price Point

I'm not a big review writer, but I wanted to leave one for this product because, thus far, I really think it's a great deal for the price. We bought two of them, in the natural finish. They came very well packaged, all parts neatly labeled with clear instructions. I looked through the instructions prior to beginning and when I opened the package, I separated all the pieces and set them out in their groups. I am not any sort of expert or experienced builders so doing this makes it very easy to avoid confusion as you work. I used only a manual screwdriver.Also, I deal with long covid/chronic illness including POTs wherein my BP/heart rate can soar or bottom out with effort and strain. Even so, I got the first box put together in an hour, just long enough for a Locations Unknown podcast episode. All of the pieces feet perfectly, and I had no trouble on that count. I've seen some reviews complaining that the wood is flimsy, it's not. It IS, however, pine, and thus soft, which is exactly the sort of wood you would expect for a hundred dollar product. It was all in good shape, cleanly cut and good quality, just soft pine. If you do use a power tool go gentle and don't over-tighten everything and you'll be fine. The instructions tell you to leave the screws 'loose' until everything is together. I screwed them in until there was about a quarter inch left on the legs/ends/sides (the supports and rack I tightened completely) and then once it was all together I went around and tightened the screws I'd left looser.I've also seen people complaining about having to spend a lot to make these last. We'll see how ours do. We bought spray sealant, and our own porous liner to use, about $40 total for those items. But again, you're buying a $100 raised bed, not a $600 pre-made, sealed cedar box with a five year warranty. I consider the purchase of the sealant, and porous liner to be part of the purchase of dirt, seeds plants, etc. I mean, no one expects these beds to come with all the dirt, and all of the plants, so I'm not sure why the idea of buying sealant upsets them. I saw one review say that when the bed was moved, it fell apart. Ours have been fine to roll, but we've avoided rolling them on bricks/gravel/grass (which honestly seems like common sense to me, especially once the boxes are loaded with a few hundred pounds of dirt and plants)My only quibble, if you can call it that, is that the bottom 'rack' is more like a reinforcement structure than a storage space. It works great for things like spare pots upside down, or spare trays/collection basket if they're plastic. Basically anything you would leave sitting out in all weather/rain. But the items shown in the listing photos being stored on the bottom racks are absolutely no-gos unless you use the included impermeable liner which will prevent any water from draining through the bottom. If you're keeping these boxes in a sun room, or screened porch, or breezeway then you definitely want the included liner, which will not let water run through, and then you CAN put anything beneath the box you want. But if you mean for this to be in a more outdoor space, where it's a necessity to have water drain through to assure the plants don't drown, you'll need to get porous liner material, and then the bottom racks are only good for anything that can have water drain all over them. But that said, most people don't leave their gardening tools laying out in the garden, either. If we have any catastrophic failure or change, I'll come back and addend my review but thus far, excellent product for the price point.

My 88-year-old mom is ready to start gardening again!

I bought this as a Mother's Day gift for my 88-year-old mother. She has had quite the health battle in the past year and is now doing much better. She has always loved gardening, but due to mobility problems the last couple of years, has had to let that fall by the side. BUT, with her health being better, she is excited at this raised bed making gardening a hobby for her again. It's such a nice height for her, allowing her to stand upright. She loved it so much that she asked for a second one. She has quite the spark in her eyes as she plans her new garden. Mind you, we haven't actually put anything in yet, but it was easy to assemble and appears like it will hold up well. (I suggested to mom that we put some kind of weatherproofing on it, but otherwise, it seems to be fairly well made.) We like the rollers for feet, with one side's wheels being lockable.

Will it serve its purpose?

Rating: 4 Stars subject to changeCredit and caveat: some of these suggestions were brought to my attention by other reviewers and deserve credit. In retrospect, I wish I had taken more time to see the images of their collapsed planter boxes. With that said, many of the following suggestions seem sound (to me), maybe excessive, and it’s too soon to tell if they will work or whether they were needed. I’m just trying to avoid the massive headache of a failed planter (collapsed) box, rotted wood panels and excessive moisture for the herbs.Images: Numerous jpgs are included. I hope these are useful (a picture is worth 1,000 words.)Preparation:Plan to use an electric screw driver, it will make assembly less difficult (remember to charge it before starting the project)Consider having an assistant, some steps will be harder, but not impossible, to complete without a second pair of hands (I’m in my late 70s and did it solo)Plan to spend at least 1 - 2 hours assembling the planter box (not 20 minutes)Consider purchasing a product that will protect the wood if you plan to use it outdoors (I purchased Seal It Green Garden Box sealer, 1 quart will cover many planter boxes, is easy to use and cleans up with soap and water)The Good:Very attractive looking once completed and sealedGood instructions…if you familiarize yourself with them beforehandParts are well labeled including stickers on each piece of wood and each bag of hardware (screws, bolts, etc.)The Not-So Good (but not quite Bad):Some steps in the assembly are not straight forward, especially the barrel bolts. This item must be lined up properly for the two pieces to engage. Note that the slot on the barrel nut lines up with the threads on the barrel bolt (using a screw driver to hold it in place will help)The thin wrench (provided) is used to tighten casters to the legs and not any other bolts or nutsThe fabric liner appears impermeable to water, I.e., water did not pass through the liner after a 6 hour test done without soil so it may not drain adequately which will over-saturate your plants, vegetables or herbsAttaching the last bolt needed to secure the lower shelf after the 14 slats have been installed (56 screws) can be a challenge if you’ve already completely tightened the first 3 bolts (leave some play in the other 3 legs until all 4 bolts are in place, then tighten)The Ugly (I hope not!):Despite a preponderance of 4 and 5 star reviews (88% combined), the real worry is the planter boxes that completely fell apart as noted in some of the 1 and 2 star reviews (6% combined). These examples would be deal breakers but I must have missed seeing them, a serious oversightIf the fabric liner does not drain water your plants will become over-wateredEven if water gets through the fabric liner it will not simply go to the 4 drainage holes at the base of the plantar box. It will sit on the bottom pieces, eventually rot the wood if not sealed, and leak through any openings besides the 4 drainage holesSuggestions which I hope will help but have not yet been proven to work…yet:Wood glue to strengthen the joined pieces in addition to the multiple screwsAdditional pieces of 1” x 3” lumber, screwed them into base of the planter to help support the many cubic feet of soil added to the planter box (these were moved closer to the edges to keep water from pooling along the length of the planter box)Corner braces attached as shown in the jpgs (again: these were moved to the sides)3/4” O.D. (outside diameter) clear vinyl tubing inserted into each drainage hole; allow some to protrude above the base then secure the tubes by using a small gauge finish nail to prevent the tube from being pulled out from below (seen in jpg)Line the inside of the entire planter box with 3 - 5 ml plastic to further protect the sealed wood; staple to the sidesSecure the black fabric liner with staples as done for the plasticCut a small opening in the plastic and the fabric at each of the 4 drainage holes; staple and duct tape to “encourage” water to exit via the 4 vinyl tubesAdd an upside down strainer to keep soil out of the vinyl tubes which would defeat the purpose of the drains; secure with duct tapeAdd soil and happy growing! I used Miracle-Gro Raised Bed Soil which requires no mixing of potting mix and garden soil that has been recommended for raised beds. You can find many suggestions for making your own raised bed soil on line. After all these additions, I hope I will never submit an update which will only happen if the box falls apart. I hope the jpgs are helpful.UPDATE: March 13, 2024. RATING lowered to 3 stars. It's been less than a year since purchase and the planter has held up well. It wasn't moved by engaging the two lockable wheels. I applied Garden Box Sealer (Amazon purchase) and the planter developed ugly black marks on many of its surfaces. An initial sanding of the top corner squares and the top horizontal surfaces cleaned up the discoloration but sadly, the entire box including the bottom shelf slats developed the same problem. The box became an eyesore. This past week, I sanded the box, primed it with Zinsser 1-2-3 exterior primer and painted it with Benjamin Moore "low lustre" exterior paint. I should also note that my Rube Goldberg attempts to divert water into small containers placed on the lower shelf was a failure - despite the provided black liner and the addition of my own plastic liner and four (4) drain tubes through the provided holes at the planter box base, this thing leaked like a sieve.
