Galvanized Raised Garden Bed with Legs, Galvanized Planter Raised Garden Boxes Outdoor, Oval Large Metal Raised Garden Beds for Vegetables(Green)………

Product is great. Easy to assemble. Just need to take precautions by wearing gloves when assembling. The height of the garden bed is perfect for my elderly mother.

Very nice planter and good value. The manufacturer took care to round over as many metal edges as possible to reduce chance of injury during assemble and use as well. I have built many planters of this style using wood and they last only a couple of years. Considering the galvanized construction of this planter, it should last many years.

Follow reviewer Annie’s photos and instructions and you will find it easy to assemble. One took me working alone and using a screwdriver less than an hour. With a power tool for the bolts and confidence, it can probably be assembled in 20 minutes. The quality is excellent. Everything fit together smoothly. It is sturdy and stable. If I need another, I will buy the same product again.

Took us about 1 hour each to assemble three [3] of these. It got faster with each one. The legs and sides went together fairly easily, although it does take two people to hold the pieces together from mid-way and beyond. The bottom section's screw fittings did not align with the leg pilot holes and it did take some heavy rubber mallet banging to fit together. But, we got them together. They are sturdy, well made and light weight so you can place them where you want their final position. Once filled with drainage gravel in the bottom and potting soil, it will take several people to move them. I will write an update and may upgrade to 5 stars in the near future. But, for now they do seem to be what the seller promised and as good as any others we have seen.

Using this by the hummingbird feeders for flowers to attract more hummers. Love the sturdiness so javelinas cannot knock it over, and its high enough they cannot eat the flowers.

This was real easy to put together and is just the right height for me. I have trouble with arthritis and can't bend over to work in my garden any longer - so I thought I would give this a try. I've already planted radishes, peas and tomatoes! I liked it so much I bought 2 more so I can grow more vegetables!

I’m very happy with the quality of these raised beds. I will add drain holes and paint them with galvanizing paint to prevent rusting and line them with garden fabric to prevent soil loss. The manufacturer’s instructions are illustrations of parts and you have to figure out the construction based on what they consider the layout of the parts. Nothing written, nothing completely obvious. So, to help those who buy these, we took photos during construction. It helps to have 2 people to line things up but really you could do it yourself. The beds are light weight but sturdy.Tips: Use the box it came in to work on a higher surface and to prevent screws from escaping. We did the initial assembly and tightened the screws finger tight. Install all of the screws loosely before tightening any of them. We used an impact driver to speed up tightening the screws and nuts after the bed was completely assembled but hand tools will work fine. All you need is an 11 mm wrench or small adjustable wrench and a Phillips screwdriver1. Parts (came with extra screws)2. Side walls and legs.3. Add end walls to legs, easier to assemble by letting the wall and leg hang over the box the bed came in.4. One side completed, do the second side.5. Add the bed floor/bottom to one side.

Upon opening the package, I noticed that the corner of several pieces were bent in. There was no protection in the box other than some plastic wrap. Packing with more cushioning would've been better. These corners are sharp and I had to use gloves to prevent from getting cut. I tried hammering them back out with little success. These ended up being exposed on the inside bottom corner of the planter, so I'll have to be careful if I'm digging my hand around in dirt.There is a single page that includes a parts list and a diagram to show what parts go where, but no step by step instructions for what to do first and how things fit together. I was able to figure it out and put it together by myself in about 30 minutes with a screw driver.There are no drainage holes for water to escape. Some could probably go out of the bottom corners, but I doubt all water could easily work its way there. I will likely drill out some extra holes before filling with dirt.So far (empty), the unit seems relatively stable. I'll update if needed after filling with a lot of dirt and seeing how everything is structured. I feel that a lower leg brace around the unit would be beneficial, but we'll see.Overall, it's a decent unit for the price, but not extraordinarily good.
