70 Inch Wooden Raised Garden Bed with Lattice Trellis

I made a few mistakes while understanding the assembly instructions, but they were all easily corrected. I also ordered a small irrigation kit thinking it was for the trellis, but after calling, I learned it wasn't for trellises. Nevertheless, I installed it anyway, and it works great! The included hose works even in tight corners. I would suggest the manufacturer make a hole at the top of the center bracket (2) so the hose can pass through. This irrigation system is fantastic; they've thought of everything, including valves, nozzles, a rotating bracket, and more. I'm very happy with this planter and its lockable wheels. I can remove the main hose to move the planter to a sunnier spot depending on the season, water it manually, or replace the hose with a longer one for easier movement. The planter is very sturdy. The bottom shelf is great for storage, but be careful as water from the planter can spill onto the shelf. I might get another planter in the future!

wanted this flowerpot so I could grow some herbs by the kitchen door. It's perfect! First, let's talk about the packaging. No foam! All the packaging was cardboard and completely recyclable, which is a huge plus. It was very well packaged, with no scratches or damage during shipping. Next, assembly. It took me 1 hour and 29 minutes. I could definitely do it much faster if I were to make it again. One reason was that I was a bit hasty and tightened some screws that shouldn't have been tightened. If you do that, you'll run into trouble at every step afterward. So be sure to follow the instructions strictly! I recommend not using the small Allen wrench that comes with it; prepare a 5/32-inch Allen drill bit and use a power drill. Otherwise, you'll spend a whole day tightening screws with an Allen wrench. It might actually be metric, but a 5/32-inch size works great too. If you have a Phillips head screwdriver, you can save some time as well. Anyway, they sent just the right amount of fasteners, plus one of each, which is much more convenient if you accidentally lose one and can't find it. It would be much faster to assemble with two people helping, but one person can actually manage it. Another important point… all the holes are aligned. If they're not aligned? That's probably because you tightened the wrong screws at the last minute. Loosen them, and everything will be perfectly aligned! Now, let's talk about the quality. This bed is top-notch! The color is perfect, and the finish is impeccable. It's well-designed and very sturdy. The casters are wide and heavy. I have complete confidence that this bed can be easily moved on lawns, patios, or hard surfaces. There are no drainage holes on the galvanized base. I know water will leak from the joint between the bed sides and the base, but… I prefer smoother drainage, so I plan to seal the internal seams with silicone and drill drainage holes directly in the bottom. I'll attach a hose or pipe to divert excess water away from the patio. This is fine if it's in the yard, but I don't want water flowing onto the patio. Speaking of which, let me add some practical advice. The drainage holes I drill will be relatively large, but I'll cover them with coarse screens. I'll then cover the screens with a layer of coarse perlite or pea gravel. This ensures better drainage and prevents soil loss from the pots! So, if you want a high-quality elevated flower bed, I confidently recommend this one. I'm absolutely satisfied!!
