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

There's not much to like or dislike. It's basically six metal sheets plus a couple of braces that are attached by screws. Be warned - the "instructions" follow the Ikea model of using just pictures, no words: so when you put it together that there is only one proper way for the parts to be put together - although the four side pieces look almost identical, if you don't attach them to the correct companions, you'll have to tear it down and start over. The 18 foot piece of rubber that attaches to the edge would be a nice feature - if it stayed on; consider gluing it down. And lastly, remember that once you've put it together, you'll need to obtain and fill it with 30+ cubic feet of soil. So there's a fair amount of work to do up front. But after that, you've got a nice planter that should simplify your gardening and, I hope, hold up for quite some time.

You would be hard pressed to find a better deal on a garden bed of this size. The metal is of good quality and there was very little if any damage to the parts inside of the box. Takes a lot of screws to put them together but that is to be expected.

The price was okay. The panels could be a little thicker. I bought 10 opened 3. One box 1 extra screw. 2 boxes short screws, and several screws not even threaded. In my opinion they may not hold up, possibly 2 years before rusting through.

I really like the raised garden. Easy to put together, and they were a great price. I bought 2 and put the 1st one together, then the 2nd one I only used enough to make a 1/2 size garden

Overall.. Planter is good.. The cross bars that support the planter are too small and weak for the size.. and the small screws want to tear thru the opening provided in the sidewalls... Remedy.. I just drilled new holes small enough in the side walls to hold cross bars in place.... Not too much work.. but be aware.. you will need to do the same for stability

Love the raised beds. Sturdy and very easy to use. Have had Many compliments on my beds.these are wonderful from flowers to vegetables . works great for anything.

All is good and easy to assemble ! Just got to make room for another one and start growing my organic vegetable's.

I like the quality and strengtj of the metal in this. Assembly instructions were a bit vague but once you get going it assembled pretty easy. It uses a lot of screws but I appreciate the wing nuts to make it easier so it was a 1 person job

The bed was easy to put together. It took about 3 hours for the first one and a little under 2 for the second by myself. The filmed peeled of the second set easier, and I knew how to screw the inner support beams together. I had to youtube that. There are over 120 screws to put this together. The protector for the rail is great, but it does put off when I attach bird netting to it, and the wind is blowing. The support beams are flimsy All of mine bent while putting them in, but they do appear to keep bowing to a minimum. These hold a lot of material. Cannot wait for the garden to grow.

The main problem I see with this product is the rubber gasket that fits on the edge all around is almost worthless as it won't stay on as I have used tape trying to secure. the gasket just needs to be deeper and fit further down on the edge so it would be a cheap easy fix FYI
