Title: Good overall. ðð¼ðð¼
Review: This raised bed is easy to assemble, great for starting a flower or vegetable garden even though a little small for my needs but it works for now. Great depth for my veggies. Has a water reservoir that helps you at least to water every other day. Good quality and sturdiness. Keep in mind that the dividers are easy to be broken. It doesnât have wheels therefore if you need to move it can be a little heavy. Hope this review helps you!

Title: Cute, Easy Assembly, Works Great
Review: I live in an apartment, but still wanted to play herbs on my porch. I looked into several and eventually ran across this one. Took a chance and have not been disappointed.Assembly is pretty easy. Itâs light, but very sturdy. It has plenty of space for planting, a convenient shelf below to store items, and a water meter to help you know when to water. Overall, very pleased!

Title: Nice size.
Review: I like this product for its hight and size. It wad easy to assemble. I wish the sides were a little stronger. They bow a little now that it is fully planted. I don't recommend this for large vegetable plants (it's about 8" deep) because it is pretty narrow for adequate spacing. It is perfect for the kitchen herb garden I wanted and the height makes harvest very easy.

Title: Gardening for idiots!
Review: I have no idea what I'm doing, but for some strange reason I got this overwhelming urge to garden this year, for the first time in my life. I don't want to make a proper garden in my yard until I figure out whether this is just a passing fancy. So I bought this thing for my deck. I planted 6 herbs plants I got from home depot (mint, thai basil, rosemary, cilantro, parsley, and thyme). It's been about a month, and they've all exploded. I was pleased with this result, so I bought another and planted chives, jalapenos, regular basil, lemon balm, and white tea. Glorious success. I've now purchased a total of 4, and this is getting out of hand. My strawberry planter is gloriously lush after only about 2 weeks, and I'm giddy about my tea garden. Is this what happens when you turn 30? You get excited about planters and the kinds of herbs you use to season food? That is kind of depressing but whatever, I can now make pho on a whim without going to the grocery store, so win.These things are stupid easy to use. The self- watering feature and little floaty leaf are great for a ditzy novice like me. Setup was easy and quick. The whole thing feels really flimsy and cheap, but functions perfectly so I can't complain too much. Looks pretty nice- a little bit cheap but not too ugly. I think these things are great overall- I definitely recommend them. I do have to say they're rather spendy though- they're literally half the price at home depot fyi.

Title: Drain plug and false bottom work ideally - especially in wet climates.
Review: Bought this item 7 months ago and have already had my 1st generation of plants cycle through it. Perfect size to fit along the side of my house and the depth works great for most vegitables. The drain plug was ideal, especially when I left town for several days and had a diluge while gone. At the same time, during the drier periods I was able to control the moisture better through its use. The construction is very durable but it may warp somewhat if you pack the soil too tight but you do not want to do that anyway. I have bunnies, bobcats, racoons, foxes and even iguanas and the height keeps all thise critters out of the garden. I will be starting my next generation of tomatos and cucumbers in another month or so once it cools somewhat. Thinking of buying a second to expand the harvest. I highly reccomend this garden bed.

Title: Not a green thumb but trying
Review: I have killed cactus and succulents before but I still have a goal of having a garden. I figured I would start from scratch with seeds and see how I do⦠well, for a previous plant killer, I say Iâm doing pretty well and I have to give credit where credit is due. This things is awesome! It has 12 seed spots so I went all in and 6/12 have sprouted. Theyâre not all doing amazing (need to move to LESS sunny spot cause itâs burning my little sprouts) but honestly, from killing live plants before to giving some life, I think that says something. It has a draining hole that definitely comes in handy and I love how easy it was to build. I have the same brand storage benches and nothing has let me down so far.

Title: 10 Thumbs up (I put my two thumbs up five times)!
Review: This thing is awesome. I got the black one to go with the color of my deck and its very cute. It has a nice wood grain look and its so well made and simple to put together and it has easy to understand instructions (no tools needed). Its also pretty sturdy. I'm using it to grow herbs outside that I plan to bring into my basement for the winter, so I can stop spending so much money on grocery store bunches of herbs I never fully use up. Only caution is that is a good size but its not huge. I think I'm going to be able to grow about 8-10 bunches of herbs in it. So if you're planning to grow a lot, you may need more than one. Otherwise, I honestly love this thing. The water indicator and little seedling planter is perfect (the seedling planter has holes for drainage...they thought of everything). Also the extra water collects in the bottom but doesn't just pour out...you have to pull the rubber plug to do it....which is great because 1) I don't want dirty water all over my deck and 2) the water can be saved for re-watering because its nutrient rich. Last point, its a very nice finish plastic so doesn't look cheesy or cheap. Usually I only like wood, metal, etc...but this almost looks like stained wood panels and will be much, much easier to clean and will last forever without maintenance. Trust me, I'm picky as hell about decor items and functionality and this is a really cute piece for being plastic. Its a definite buy and thanks to the manufacturer for building a good quality, very cute, very environmentally friendly planter. And the little shelf underneath helps to hide our ugly deck light switch and holds my watering can and citronella candles...sooo awesome! Thank you!!!

Review: Found planter easy to assembly. Good height to plant or harvest plants. Extra shelf good for fertilizer or garden tools. Ordered early and planted with herbs but unfortunately still in rainy season and kept having to open drain to release some of the water. Finally got smart and just kept the drain open. Surprising how much rain water the planter will hold. Once the days of rain settle down will close drain and fill the water reservoir again. Planter looks sturdy and I expect will last many years. Already considering buying another one next year, after I evaluating plant success. Also considering buying a liquid fertilizer to add to the water reservoir to ensure good plant health.

Review: Great planter, easy to assemble. Re the other reviewer who complained the red plastic bits were broken, these are just for transit and it clearly states in instructions to throw these away. Good height, I'm 5ft8in so no stooping. Love the water float, nice little design detail and the draining tapon the side works well.

Review: Assembly was really easy, insanely easy. just put it in place and filled it with potting soil (60 liters is the right amount BTW, 4,200 cubic inches converts to around 60 liters...large bag of soil.The watering system has kept the soil moist all of the time so far, I water it every few days...but I am confident it will last longer if I am on an extended trip. worth mentioning that I think I added 5 watering cans of water before the indicator registered as full.Everything is growing well, it looks great and it is exactly what I wanted on my condo balcony.
