T4U Large Vertical Garden Tower Planter 5 Tier - Plastic Stackable Strawberry Planter Tiered Herb Pot, Stacking Grow Tower Gardening Pot for Indoor Outdoor Balcony Lettuce, Vegetables and Flower Plant

I love the stackable planter. It was perfect for the flowers, strawberries, and small plants I planted. I just use it on the deck and I like it. If you plan to do heavy duty planting you might want something a little more substantial. This will blow over with the wind but I have it anchored by water jugs. I thought the dirt would hold it down but now necessarily if you have strong winds.

This product is easy to assemble, but it is not very sturdy. Having read the reviews I added a dowel and attached the top of the dowel to my porch railing with a bungee cord from Dollar Tree. A $3 fix made it sturdy as a rock. The bungee is easily removed to allow the tower to be turned or moved. It is very attractive fully loaded.

Easy to assemble but not real sturdy against strong winds. Put a dowel rod down the middle and tied to my lamppost. Sturdy as a rock.

So overall this is okay but I do regret not shelling out the extra 20 dollars on a better system.I bought this specifically for the wheels, but they don't really help move the whole thing around since the tower is so unstable. I even put a pole through the center, but since the tray does not have a hole through the center, then my pole was just resting on the tray and not adding any more stability.In our last storm it blew the whole thing over. I had the system sitting on my completely level deck in an area that has some wind coverage. I am hoping that I can save the plants in there, since I have some hybrid strawberries planted that will put me out $20 alone. I think I lost all my herbs and green beans I had planted as well. I have no back up plan if I cannot stabilize this stack of plasticCleaning up the mess left behind by this stack's inability to stand on its own was devastating. I may have lost 2 months worth of work and preparation because I was too cheap. Take caution before trusting this with anything you have invested time in, beacuse it will literally dump your work onto the ground. Next year I may just direct sow some seeds I got from the dollar store instead so that this will not break down 2 months of work during a 20 minute storm again.If you have a tool to punch a hole through hard plastic, I suggest putting a hole in the bottom of the tray to run a pole through the whole system and into the ground.

I transplanted my Aloe Vera Plant today from living in a shallow aluminum roasting pan for over 5 years to the tiered towers. I think that they will be very happy in the tower. I only went four trays high due to weight and stability as I will need to lift them in and out of the house or bathtub to water. There are no instructions or pictures that come with these tower trays (6 trays). The black rack seen in the second and third picture go inside the tray(s) to help with root rot (I had to google this). There is a lot of depth for roots and I look forward to seeing these plants in a couple of months to a year as they are going to look cool. The built in tiered watering system works as you water the top, it trickles to the tier below and so forth. FYI: There are less expensive tower pots similar to this one but without the white round tray and wheels - Only, I did not see them at the time. No matter. I am happy.

This item is beyond flimsy and has the worst drainage setup ever. You will end up with a soggy bottom and whatever is at the top will die from drought. This item is always on sale for a reason—it is absolutely not worth it. Instead, buy several trays from the Dollar Tree, stop off at Home Depot, and buy a piece of rebar, and you’ll still have $29 left. If you’re buying this for the attractive feature of being able to wheel it around, know that it is completely unsteady and will absolutely fall over. The tower is 12 inches wide, and if the dolly isn’t at least 18 inches wide, with no connection between the tower and the dolly, it’s not going to work.

Size is perfect. Very easy to assemble.

Works well, each tray is only big enough for a single plant. Works great for peppers or other small plants. Bottom tray holds a fair amount of water.
