Land Guard Galvanized Raised Garden Bed with Legs, 48×24×32in Large Metal Elevated Raised Planter Box with Drainage Holes for Backyard, Patio, Balcony, 400lb Capacity

Bought this for my mother for her birthday. It was easy to put together, very sturdy and his the perfect size for her to plant cucumbers and peppers. Metal/aluminum framing retained water well she want’s to buy another one.

This was the best garden raised bed I had to put together in a long time. No only does it look great it was simple to put together. If you are like me with minor back problems this is the best one to purchase. Try it you try anything elseMrs V in NC

This went together relatively easily, and I was able to do it with a broken leg and the help of a 13 year old (which was at times a questionable decision.) The pieces on their own are pretty flimsy and did get slightly bent in shipping, however once assembled it seems quite secure. Some of the screws and bolts do not fit together well, but they provide a lot of extras to choose from. We have just filled it with dirt, and haven't potted anything yet, but the dirt filled bed looks nice.

I usually go right to the rating reviews before investing in something of value and read some of the reviews. I normally start by reading some of the negative reviews and work my way up to the five stars before making the decision to purchase. Reviews are fickle and I incorporate that into my decision making process. In this case I found some of the one, two and three star reviews to be very interesting and ultimately comically entertaining.I guess a lot of people don't understand some of the very basic concepts of construction and physics. This is a very light and modestly designed raised planting bed and that is reflected in the affordable pricing. That's not a knock on this product but actually a reflection of its value. I said it's modestly designed not poorly designed. It's actually very well designed and that allows the light weight materials to function and intergrate well for it's intended purpose. That purpose would be to provide a raised garden bed for flowers and vegetables. It's designed to support the weight of your typical garden soil and the plants. Dirt is not the same as garden soil. If you are going to dig up some dirt or glacial till left over from the ice age and toss it in the bed you will most likely have issues. Dirt weights a magnitude more than garden soil as does concrete. So I wouldn't line the bottom with bricks (concrete) and you won't need to add any additional structural support or unattractive bracing.I didn't have any of the issues some people noted in their reviews regarding damage, missing holes etc. I have the capability to drill holes so it would have only been a modest setback during assembly anyway. I wouldn't lean on or place anything heavy on the top edges or it most likely will bend. Like I said it uses light weight materials. If you want higher quality materials you are assuredly going to pay much, much more for that privilege.Yep, instructions are lacking as in basically "none". They provide some basic diagrams but even they are lacking and there are no actual written instructions. I have confidence you'll be able to figure it out. Use the pictures on Amazon and zoom in closely to address any details you need clarified.All things considered, the wife and I are ecstatic with are acquisition and feel we made a good investment.

Somewhat easy to put together. Edges are sharp. Instructions were easy to follow. Planted veggies in it and was a good height at waist level. Built pretty good was much sturdier once the soil was placed in it.

A few positives and a few negatives.1. Positives: love the look, size and price (only used it for one season so far).2. Negatives: like some of the other reviews, unfortunately the legs are pretty WEAK. They hold dirt well but we tried to move one planter slightly and the leg started to bend. Recommend adding additional support to the legs.Overall I like this product but i would not order again. We added additional support to the legs so it will work but not ideal.

I was happy to find this planter, which is nice and big and accommodates lots of plants. The planter is very attractive and we opted to get the brown colored one which matches our condo.Easy to assemble as everything lines up very nicely. It took about 3 hours to assemble.Unfortunately, assembly instructions weren't included, so I emailed the company asking for instructions. They immediately responded with the instructions.

Pro: only one size screw(s) & nut(s) to use, very good quality of material(s), very good value for the money, overall weight is very good - not light, but not to heavy either.Con: this is the reason it didn't get a 5 star rating; no instructions on how to assemble the product (in either of the 4 boxes that came). It would have been a nice touch to know where to start, as the bottom panel frames have corners cut off the one end. The middle section was a touch awkward to get together, but it is very do able.Overall: Very solid purchase - would highly recommend.
