I never submit reviews, but I'm making an exception because this product was such a pleasant surprise. Well packaged; each part and bag of small parts clearly labeled; clear instructions; a few extra small parts (a real rarity... at first I thought I'd left one off); and everything fit and went together smoothly. Wood grain and finish (clear grey) are very nice; I added a clear water sealer. Decent quality wheels, two lockable. 30min assembly is wildly optimistic, but it's an easy 2hr job. Notes/suggestions: (1) strongly suggest drilling pilot holes where needed for wood screws (easy, just use pre-drilled holes as guides); (2) if you choose to seal, do so before assembly since some surfaces are inaccessible after assembly; (3) the liner is impermeable, which is OK if that's what you want, but drain holes useless unless you replace it with filter fabric.

Well made, nice looking, easy to assemble and great grey color. I haven’t started my planting yet but it is ready to go and I’m sure it will be fantastic for our veges and herbs. Good value in my opinion considering how good it’s made.Thank you.

This product appeared to be a decent raised garden. It is best to have 2-3 people to assemble this raised garden.The wood appeared untreated, which is good if you are wanting to grow any fruits or vegetables. Just be sure to move the garden out of bad weather so that it can last longer. The garden has lockable wheels on one side, which makes it convenient to move around. This raised garden is also great because not only does it keep the garden above ground and away from animals, it is mobile and allows the user to not have to bend down while working with it.I do not recall if the instructions stated the gross allowable weight for the garden, but I would not grow watermelons in it. The wooden supports that are beneath where the tarp holds the dirt are fairly sturdy. However, over time if the wood is not treated or kept out of bad weather, I could see issues in the future. There is a drainage hole at the base of the garden but like another reviewer had apparently done, one might consider running a PVC pipe through the hole and down through and in between the wooden shelf panels. This way the water does not rot the wooden base, and shelf down below, over time. I know that the garden should be able to be left out in different types of temperatures/weather, however, this would be best if the wood has been treated. If you're planning on growing and consuming the food, or giving the food to others for consumption, I would research about what treatments to the wood are safe for that. If you are planning on just growing plants, flowers, etc., it might be beneficial to treat the wood so that it can withstand the different climates.The only cons for this product that I observed, and experienced, were the following:1. The wood did not appear to be professionally cut. There would be those little pieces sticking off from the sides, so I suggest wearing some sort of gloves to avoid splinters. I was unable to wear gloves only because I needed to be able to grip the wood and have a better hold of what I was doing while building the garden.2. The section where you connect the base to the legs is where the air turned blue for me. I do not recall what the circular item is called but you have to use 4 of them. Then you have to run a screw through the legs in the wood, where it goes into the circular metal piece. These 4 metal pieces had minds of their own and would move as I ran the screw into them, causing them to turn and then I'd have to start again. It was very tedious and the way it was designed does not allow you to grip or hold the metal pieces in place so that the screw can go directly where it needs to be. So all I can say is have fun with that part x4. The best way I was able to make this part easier was to have someone hold the garden up where it was Level (as if it were standing up on its own. Then this released pressure a bit. Also make sure to not tighten one of the 4 legs too much because if one leg is too tight with the screw and metal piece, it will be near impossible to get the other side to fit correctly. Of course, it was only after I had yelled and cursed the makers of the product, that I finally figured out how to resolve the issue.Other than those two cons, everything else appeared fine with this raised garden. Once you have it built, you will be pleased with the end result. Just be mindful of how much weight you place in it. Change out the tarps every so often, after use, so that they don't deteriorate to the point where dirt and water are reaching the wooden base and then begin to rot the wood.I read the reviews before buying this product and it appeared to have mixed reviews. There are some who appeared to have a rough time with it but liked it. There were others who have bought several and appear to really like it. Then I believe there were a couple who did not like it.I will update this review with photographs later, and after some gardening has been done with it. I feel it is worth the purchase but if you are planning on purchasing 2 or more, I would just get 1 to begin. See if it works out and then make the decision to acquire more.I hope this review helps those in need.Happy Gardening!

Not hard to assemble at all and everything lines up perfectly. I'm in Central FL and I filled it with basically sand for my pineapple plants and I had to roll that into the garage during this weird cold spell we're in, and I realized it was probably built for potting soil which is much, much lighter - but it is handling this massive weight of sand very well. No sign or fatigue or drooping or anything. I'm quite impressed with the engineering of this package.

The fantastic cedar scent of this planter was a nice extra while putting this together inside. Instructions say 20 minutes lol. It’s easy, but not that easy. If you have a drill for assisting with many screws, get it out: it’s worth it for a better build and avoiding blisters. Tips for placing this planter for novices like me… I didn’t do the following in advance, so my first raised bed experience had some challenges created by the fact that this big, beautiful, well-made bed was just a tad too deep to place at the turn of my inherited, back ramp near the kitchen door where I originally intended to place it for easy access while cooking. I did some reading to figure out which of my desired plants have similar sun and water needs. I spent a few days (clouds) tracking my yard’s sun/water access to see if I had a good full-sun spot for my plants that also fit this large planter. Turns out the only viable spot for me was on soft ground that was not level. I figured a level foundation would be important for even draining which would prolong the integrity of the planter. Note: this planter is designed with narrow openings and 4 drilled holes on the bottom for good drainage options already built in. For extra caution, I ended up digging, leveling, placing cardboard (weed/grass control) and leveling again with sand and 12” square pavers in the corners to create the base I wanted. Then, after placing the empty bed on the level pavers (level to each other), I mulched around the bottom to further eliminate grass or weeds growing up through the slatted bottom shelf and to hide the pavers. Final step was filling the bed. Since my location is in the yard, I really didn’t need the castors, but if placing on a patio, I’d think the castors would be a plus. They are quality metal castors that can handle the weight of a full planter. I like the bottom shelf and will store needed tools and supplies in waterproof containers (sitting under the planter drainage slats and holes). Picture does not depict final waterproof storage.
