Wooden Elevated Planter Box Shelf Suitable for Garden Use

its a 1 Hit Wonder

My wife purchased this because it was cheaper than me buying the materials from Lowes and building one myself. It was not that crazy to assemble, but once put together and filed with herbs she wanted to plant, it looked great. As this season carried on, we noticed the outside of the box started to mold real bad. Not sure if due to materials or just bad weather. The front / back panels started to droop towards the middle and showing a obvious dip. While this wasn't the end all, the individual slats started to separate from the frame. They seem to be only 1/8" stapled into the main board, which doesn't provide the necessary grip to hold very long. Once I emptied out the soil the bottom floor board, it is made from a cheap wood laminate and has easily broken apart if handled. I knew this wouldn't' last another season. This raised box maybe good for an indoor green house or sun room, but don't expect it to last more than a season outdoors. (speaking from someone living in the southeast) - I should have spent the money and just built one.

Well made product

Qualilty wood, nicely planed and sanded smooth, sweet smelling pine, easy to assemble. My wife bought it, She is very pleased with it, as am pleased with how she prepped and set it up.

Just what I wanted

I can now pick tomatoes and the rabbits won't eat them

Good starter bed

I'm using this as a starter bed.

Good buy

Perfect depth and sturdy. I did coat them with water proofing so they last longer. They look great and work for my needs.

Easy up, but be careful you don’t crack the parts.

Assembly was straightforward. All fasteners were in separate bags, labeled with an identifiable letter that corresponds with a letter in the assembly instructions. Care must be taken to line up the edges but the individual panels are acceptably constructed. In two cases, I had to reglue slats that had separated, so have some handy.

Exactly what I needed

This raised garden planter bed is designed to be more than 30 inches high, so you don’t need to bend over to take care of your plants and get a pleasant planting experience. The price, quality and ease of assembly have left a deep impression on me.

PERFECT FOR WORKING IN THE GREENHOUSE

EASY TO PUT TOGETHER AND WORK PERFECT IN THE GREENHOUSE.

I modified mine

It holds 100 lbs. of soil. I added an internal liner to direct excess water. I also mounted wheels for mobility. I start things in my greenhouse, then roll it onto my back patio. Works great.

It’s cedar, folks. Made of what seems to be real cedar.

That smell that some are talking about is Cedar, not some chemical treatment. The whole thing appears to be made from cedar, which is a long-lasting, rot and bug-resistant wood. It took me a minute to find the instructions in the box (static had them clinging to the back side of one of the pieces). When it’s put together per the instructions I find this to be a sturdy, well made piece of garden equipment. It is nice and deep, with plenty of room for layer gardening.

Product review

I bought this as a turtle enclosure and it works perfect.

Great raise garden

This works great as a out door raise garden in the front yard or the back yard the bottom works like a like storage area or a lower level garden for some low light plant. It’s easy to assemble with simple tool but easier with some power tool.

Love this garden planter

I love the Outdoor Wooden Elevated Garden Planter, It off the floor so don’t need to worrying about snails and slugs.And I don't have to bend over to take care of my vegetables or strawberry.The wooden is not heavy，It took me about 30 minutes to put them together, so easy!

It adorable and great for small areas

It’s a little shacky, but not bad.

Review

Great product. Easy to assemble

Easy, sturdy. Repeat purchase because it’s good

This is easy to assemble (15 min) -looks and smells good :-) design is easy to use and looks and feels high quality. I will buy more if these

Great and easy to assemble!

So far loving my new garden planter. I was looking for a tall planter so that I don’t need to bend or hurt my back while taking care of the garden / veggies. Also is handy that it has a shelf at the bottom to put all the things I need to take care of the garden. The natural wood look didn’t work for me so I’ve stained it with expresso wood lacquer and looks really good.

Really do like this newer style

Felt it was sturdier than the 1st two I ordered that were the older model. Works well for me as I am only 5' so not having to bend over with back issues has been a plus . Will probably order some more for next year as my husband although he is tall has back problems too.

Very nice looking deck accent

The only problem we had putting it together was you had to watch where the holes were in the legs to know which way to put them which the directions did not mention so we had to take two of the four off and redo them
