Raised Garden Bed, Metal Galvanized Steel Oval Garden Bed 8x2x1.5 ft with 18-Inch Deep Open-Bottom Design for Outdoor Vegetable Gardening, Pearl White

Product is impressively high quality. Like others have said, it comes with an annoying plastic sheeting that probably is to protect the surface from getting scratched until removed. It's kind of a pain to get off, but results in a really nice looking setup... so I guess its worth it. I liked them enough that I bought two more, and will probably get more in the fall for onions and garlic. I definitely recommend these - for what they are, theyre great. As far as the building the product, setup was pretty easy. I do recommend building the walls on a flat surface before taking to your site. It's easy to attach the bolts in a crooked way. It took me an hour and a half to assemble, and I'm pretty handy. But I did most of while watching TV, so....

Worked perfect for my tomato and cucumber plants. Easy to assemble, and they hold a lot of dirt, so be prepared for that. Perfect solution for above ground gardening.

The garden bed looks great, & it wasn't difficult to assemble after the protective film was removed - just time consuming. It appears to be well made and sturdy. Unfortunately, I bought an 8 X 2 bed and before installing I noticed the picture showing a 6 X 3 and decided that would be better. Not! I only have the 2 ft. connection and didn't think of that until I had the bed almost completed. In contacting the maker, they do not have extra parts for sale. So, be sure of the size you want before purchasing. It will be interesting to see how the bed holds up. The bed itself is very good quality, and the green color is beautiful. The provided tools are excellent. However, the connectors are thin and joined in the middle which appears to be a weak point. The 8 X 2 only comes with 2 connectors.

Great investment for your garden. These do take some time and patience to assemble but it’s not difficult and they provide all the tools you need per unit plus extra nuts/washers/bolts (I bought 4 of these and now have 4 wrenches and 4 Allen-wrenches and a bunch of extra hardware). I will say this - one side of every panel has a stubborn cling-wrap protective plastic layer you have to peel off and this is by far the most onerous and time-consuming task you have to do prior to assembly and if your motor skills aren’t the best, ask for help because it ain’t easy. But, in the words of Arin Hanson, you can “savor the peelies” in a weirdly cathartic way. Anyway, they don’t warp in shape or come loose when you pick them up, have stabilizers in the middle to help brace them, and a rubberized edging to put on the rim so you don’t scratch yourself while working in them after filling. The paint is scratch resistant - I used my weed whacker along them, no damage visible to the surface. The boxes are pretty heavy on arrival, but well-packaged without unnecessary materials. I like ‘em.

Very heavy duty metal. Surprisingly great quality given the lower than competitor pricing. Actually came with a screw driver and socket tool for assembly. My only note is that I found the plastic coating very difficult to get off. Especially for older customers but I was able to get help and we got it off. Overall I am very happy with this product. I’m thinking of buying a second one now that I know it is of high quality.

Perfect garden bed for beginners! This was my first year to do a raised garden bed, I bought 2 of these and they are perfect. They were simple for my husband and I to put together. Easy to move, pretty to look at and has held up quite well.

The only thing I can't remark on is longevity for rust protection. It has quality parts. Assembly was easy. It has capped nuts for every hole. The structure is very solid, even the rubber safety top seems good. They arrived in great condition and in 2 days.

I really like this planter. Every year I plant seed flowers around my garden vegetables; however, by the middle of summer, the flowers get out of hand and take over the garden, making it look shabby. This year I decided to use a large planter for my seed flowers. I purchased the six foot planter in navy. I was looking for something black to match my small black fence around the garden. The navy looks almost black and you really can't tell the difference unless you look closely. The screws are stainless steel, so I spray painted the heads of the screws black so the stainless steel would not stand out so much. It took at least an hour to put together because each panel was sealed with cling wrap, which had to be peeled off. I believe there are 12 or more panels which have four screws each. The planter comes with a wrench and screw driver, which works ok, but if you have a ratchet you could get the job done quicker. Also the screw driver is really cheap and doesn't fit the handle without falling out. It is okay for people who don't have their own tools. I decided to string some metal wire along the bottom so I could lay some rock on the wire to hold down the planter if a big gust of wind came along. The bottom of the planter is open, which is great because if you plant something deep, the roots can grown into the dirt. In my opinion, this is a planter you would use on the ground and not on a deck or patio, seeing the bottom is open. The price was very reasonable, compared to big box stores. If I need to purchase a second large planter, I would buy this one again.
