Customer Reviews for VEVOR Raised Garden Bed, 8 x 4 x 2 ft Galvanized Metal Planter Box, Outdoor Planting Boxes with Open Base, for Growing Flowers/Vegetables/Herbs in Backyard/Garden/Patio/Balcony, Dark Gray

I bought 3 of these last year and love the convenience of a raised bed but they took an hour each to assemble because of the wingnut fasteners. I was excited to get these new ones because the fasteners were supposed to be different cutting the assembly time way down. I just opened a box. Guess what? Wingnut fasteners. There goes 3-4 hours of my life that I didn't anticipate wasting:(

I wanted a larger bed for some plants that are large. I purchased this to put in the back of my yard where it really isn’t seen. I didn’t want to pay a lot for this reason. I assembled this myself it took about 3 or 4 hours, there is a lot of hardware. Once I put it together you need two people to put it in place because it is large and flimsy so if you try to move it yourself you risk bending a joint or the wall. Once in place it takes a lot of dirt. As I was filling it I started to notice the sides starting to bulge towards the bottom. It does come with supports that tie the long walls together. That support is also very flimsy so I can see why the sides started to bulge out. It will be fine for my needs for now but I wouldn’t purchase again. I purchased an additional bed that I was putting in an area that would be seen from my patio which I purchased from a different company which was much more expensive but the quality is so much better. You get what you pay for.

Hauchdünnes Material. Verzinkung und dem Lack habe ich keine entdecken können. Leider innen auch lackiert, so dass man die Ausdünstungen des Lacks mitvezehrt! Schade es sieht sehr gut aus, aber wie haltso oft: aussen hui und innen pfui!

Noch steht es nach einem Sommer. Auf der Kante darf man sich keinesfalls abstürzen.

Somewhat time-consuming to assemble... sides bowing in out of vertical. It may be that I needed to compact the soil more, but had thought the weight of all the soil would be sufficient.

Great size and shape. High enough to allow for easy access. The spreader bars are too lightweight and the walls bow out because of this. The planter looks great and I like the color.

These are not the easiest to put together. The instructions on where to put the center support bars was not very clear. After filling with dirt the boxes began to bow. I can't imagine that they're going to last very long which is a great disappointment as I bought quite a few of these..

Le matériel a l'air de bonne qualité, assez long a monter avec tous les boulons par contre, lorsque le bac est rempli de terre il se déforme je suis déçue

The raised bed took way too long to put together. Nots and bolts would have been more practical so a socket set cold have been use. The metal strapping that is used to prevent bulging is extremely inadequate as once I placed soil inside, it had a bulge anyways

Reasonably priced, however they are very flimsy - the internal supports are basically worthless - I used T-posts around the perimeter to help keep the walls semi-straight! I’ll use them to support my vegetables as well. I won’t buy them again!
