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

The product is nice overall, but the installation and removing the plastic is a real pain!!!!

Bowed out in multiple was when dirt was put in it bowed out he side and then bowed out the long way

I was impressed with the planter at first, then I noticed serious problems with design that really hurts its use.. 1. BIG problem - cross brace material is really bad, flimsy at best, and does NOT hold the sided from bulging. I even tried using all the braces in the middle and the middle still bulged, The top brace will get in the way of planting as well as working the dirt, I finally had to use T-POSTS to keep the sides from bulging.... 2. The corners leak dirt constantly as there is no provision to close the gaps between the straight edge end posts and the wavy edge side material. This became even worse after a rain storm and several inches of dirt flooded out through these openings.

The metal used for the sides is very week. I hsd to instal braces to keep the sides from bulging out of control. Can not get pics to upload. If you send me a email i will get them to you. Thank you Jim

Solid material, but needs to come with all the hardware. We were short a dozen or so wing nuts and bolts. Also needs more supports going between the walls. It’s bulging out at the center and will basically be in my scrap pile soon. 1/10 would not recommend. Image upload won’t even allow a normal photo.

Malgré un montage conforme à la notice, 3 renforts en bas et 3 en haut, une fois rempli de terre la partie à mi hauteur se déforme énormément la partie centrale fait 145 cm de large pour 120 en bas et en haut (cf photo) Elles sont installées dehors depuis 1 mois et les premières traces de rouille apparaissent déjà, alors que les films de protections n'ont été hottés qu'une fois le montage et le remplissage terminé. Je craignais ce résultat, mais au vu des commentaires systématiquement positif, j'ai pris le risque, j'aurais mieux fait d'écouter mon instinct.

Too many seams. Picture shows no seams. Flimsy once filled. Center seperator bars pull in when dirt goes in. Making my own next time.

Purchased, came in 2’x2’ panels. When I filled it with Material all of the seams started bursting out and looks terrible after. Took all material out and added my own supports inside before it completely broke.

There are 134 wingnut/screw combinations for assembly. The side pieces are relatively accurate but consumed a LOT of time for assembly. However, whoever designed the center brace assembly should have given more thought to the function. What a joke it is. Had to devise my own braces with PVC.

It is so clumsy and bent at the middle after filling with soil. It is out of shape raised bed.
