This raised garden bed was exactly what I was looking for and more. I wanted a sturdy garden bed that was reasonably priced but easier on the eyes than your standard galvanized steel bed. First, this company really pays attention to detail from packaging to including extras (two pairs of gloves, a very nice screwdriver, and extra screws in case you feel you need extra support - which we didn't.) The garden bed was easy to assemble - easier to do with two people once the pieces start going together, but could be done with one. The instructions are clear and even include a few tips we found helpful. Once assembled (took about 15-20 minutes), it looks great and feels sturdy. We have about 24 cubic feet of soil in it now and have no bulges or buckling. Looking forward to a large, lovely garden this summer!

I purchased 2 of the 8x3x2 raised beds for a work/school project. I did a lot of looking as I was really worried about getting something very light weight and flimsy, and I needed these to last and look good. When they arrived (A day early!!), I decided to do the alternate option of doing the each 8x3x2 into separate 3x3x2 raised beds instead. I was very pleased this was an option, and very pleased with how they turned out.The instructions were pretty clear, but what really helped was watching the video on Amazon. Once I watched the video, I assembled the beds inside our office breakroom (where it was cool) then when I finished, I brought them outside. This might have been more difficult if I had done the single longer bed. The concept of putting the rail on from the top instead of sliding them on was super helpful (this was explained in the amazon video). The kit comes with everything you need, including a screwdriver and gloves. Assembly overall was super easy--I only had someone push on one side to help with alignment for a screw twice, but other than that, no issues!Once in place we filled them with soil (appx 2 cubic yards) and they look fabulous--they will look better once they have our cover crop project in they though :-).The galvanized metal seems to be a very good, heavy weight--not flimsy, and I love the top and bottom trim so that there are no sharp edges. The paint is good (I was actually wanting no paint, or white--wish they had more options, but oh well). We used the top and bottom braces (in opposing directions) to help keep the shape. Time will tell if they hold up well.Seriously, Overall, AMAZING!

I just received these today, so I can't really comment on durability. When considering my purchase, so much of the review comments I read dealt with whether or not these are easy to assemble. Since I've not completed that part, I felt it worthwhile to share my success.First of all, read the directions. It's one page. It's not really complicated, but there are some subtleties that, if missed, can yield a lot of frustration. For me, an important take-away is that you are sliding the long frame pieces onto the corrugated walls, not pushing them on. TIP: when sliding the long connectors, pull the wall piece in the opposite direction as this relaxes the height of the corrugation, reducing resistance. It felt natural to push the wall as you push the frame piece, but this flexes the wall making the corrugations taller, introducing too much resistance!Second, the key to the structure, stability and rigidity of these is all in the aluminum frames, not the corrugated walls. Proper positioning of the long pieces, followed by ensuring the bent part of the connectors (middle of long section and corners) snap in to the slots in the long frame pieces. While the instructions emphasize the exact position of the frame pieces, I found that close was good enough since snapping the connectors correctly would tighten everything up just fine.Third, it may not be obvious from the pictures, and it wasn't mentioned in the directions, but when you are joining each wall (long dimension or corner) remember that you should be overlapping the corrugation, not just butting up ends of sheet metal. I'm guessing that at least some who complained about sturdiness may have missed this point! (btw, I found no need for the self-tapping sheet metal screws to strengthen any part of the structure).Finally, as you may see in my pictures, my installation is against a retaining wall. I was able to I create 3 'C' shaped frames using the parts of 2 full kits (with corner connectors to spare). I understand you can get extra middle connectors or corner connectors from the manufacture, so you should be able to use these kits to make a variety of shapes. I was originally considering using metal roofing plus 2x2 pressure treated posts to anchor for a similar result. While these kits are probably 2x what I would have spent on raw materials at the big box, this result was very quick, and likely more portable that what I could have assembled myself. The one negative of these versus diy is that I could have built something with 18-24" depth instead of the 12" these provide.Two suggestions to the seller and manufacturer:- You can sell these parts to form a variety of layouts. Offering packs of extra center and corner connectors would open up a lot of options- 18" or 24" wall pieces would be a great option for deeper raised beds. Or, 'H' grooved frame pieces that would allow for assembling double height structures with the same 12" high corrugated walls could accomplish the same.

Pros: Once put together, these are a lightweight alternative to traditional above ground garden beds.They were easy to put together. I ended up buying 4 altogether and put them all together in one afternoon. It took about an hour for the first one and after I figured out what I was doing wrong. The rest of them took about thirty minutes apiece. I ordered the green garden beds. I like that. It looks more gardeny, then the other colors. They fit well in the area of my yard that I set them up at and the dimensions match what the website says. They also included extra screws for when I inevitably dropped them all over the yard by accident. Was missing 2 stabilization bars for each garden bed. Company replaced these for free and even paid shipping. Very satisfied with the customer service! Please wear the gloves they come with. The edges are sharp. Once put together, there are no more sharp edges.

The finish product appears to be of good quality and makes above ground gardening fun. It must be assembled on a flat service such as the garage floor or the driveway and it takes an additional person to hold the panels while they are assembled.

Not high enough to stabilize in ground and have enough above ground for planting

The planter bed forms are a great addition to our garden and efforts to grow some of our own vegetables.

Tout est conforme.

I am very happy with this product. The packaging was excellent and assembled with no issues. The bed is lightweight so moving it is effortless. We found the bed is going to require just over 1/2 a yard of dirt would be required to fill the bed. I would definitely recommend this bed
