Best Choice Products 4x2x2FT Steel Raised Garden Bed for Outdoor Use, Deep Planter Box for Growing Vegetables, Flowers, Herbs & Plants in Backyard, Patio or Garden - Sage Green

The Best Choice Products Outdoor Metal Raised Garden Bed was an excellent addition to my garden. Its 2ft growing depth, which can hold up to 119 gallons of soil, is ideal for medium to deep-rooting plants and vegetables like broccoli, beans, and more. This depth is a significant positive as it allows for a wide variety of plants to be grown. The open base drainage is another positive aspect. It promotes drainage to help prevent water and salt buildup while allowing your plants' roots easy access to nutrients. This feature is crucial for maintaining the health of your plants and ensuring they thrive. (But also opens up the possibility of varmints burrowing into your plants) The tool-free assembly is a big plus. The beveled steel panels come together with a set of included wingnuts and bolts with rubber edging for added protection. This makes the setup process straightforward and hassle-free, even for those who aren't particularly handy. (It does take some time to assemble and is made easier by two people. It took me about a half hour to construct one) The planter box is built to last, made of powder-coated steel panels and complete with four ground stakes to secure your garden bed. This robust construction ensures that the planter box will withstand the elements and continue to serve your gardening needs for years to come. (It DOES NOT include or use support bars so if you overpack your planter bed like I did you will get some bowing. 1 out of my three has bowing because I overpacked it, see photos) Best Choice Products Outdoor Metal Raised Garden Bed are a great choice for both experienced horticulturists and beginning green thumbs. Its depth, open base drainage, and tool-free assembly are standout features. I would easily recommend these to someone who is looking for open-bottom raised garden beds.

These are extremely well-made raised planters! Nice heavy duty steel, re-enforcement braces top and bottom in four locations. The powder coated paint will last for many, many years. When assembled, they are very sturdy! It took me about three hours to put each one together. I will not lie to you, it is very tedious work with a lot of bending, kneeling, and crouching to get the unit assembled with 112 bolts and wing nuts each. The actual assembly itself is very simple and straight forward. My wife and I are in our 60's and we needed an option that brings the plants higher up so we do not have to do so much bending and kneeling. These planters will do that for us and as you can see... they are absolutely beautiful! As hard as this was (for me) to do, We are going to order another one in a different size for another area we plant vegetables. The only concern I have with these are the four corners where they attach to end and first side panel on each side. There are gaps where every line of corrugation occurs. Since these gaps are on the inside as well, it is possible that the potting soil could wash out of them when there are heavy rains. I will need to figure out a way to seal these corners, but other than that, no other concerns and I highly recommend these.

Like a lot of products today even the refrigerator we bought recently had a plastic film all over the stainless steel that had to be removed. This product has a plastic film on both sides of every panel I contacted Best choice products about the film not being mentioned in the directions.. I was informed to leave the plastic on there to protect the metal. Eventually, this plastic film will start to peel, etc., on the outside and look like crap Then there is the concern that the plastic film will eventually break down on the inside where the dirt is and end up inside the dirt where you’re trying to grow plants. Who knows if the plants would suck up through their roots the plastic toxins. The answer should be yes remove all plastic on both sides of each panel Overall, it seems like a nice product and better than the other raised gardens I bought in the past. I would like to give it five stars, but I shouldn’t because of the plastic film. At the very least, they should have their directions state to remove all plastic film. Update—>. Due to another reviewers comments, I put a chain across the middle To make sure it never bows or swells in the middle. Also, due to a review from a different manufacturer raised garden. I built a year ago I filled the big hole ribs at the corners with a food grade silicone Supposedly once it dries, there’s no toxins whatsoever Friday night Left the last rib hole open at the bottom For drainage at the bottom I filled the rib holes from the inside, so it’s not visible from the outside with silicon dripping out. The reason I did this is because a lady from a different manufacturer, Metal raised garden that I built last year commented that anytime she watered her raised garden bed so much of the water would just escape at the corners and the dirt would not fully get moist The silicone worked wonderfully with the other ones I built last year I’m really happy how the top edges are hemmed and not really sharp. Definitely a sign of a better quality metal raised garden I switched my review to a four star after some thought. It’s definitely a really good product After doing all nuts and wing nuts just finger snug Then I came through with a drill To make the bolts tighter It definitely snugged up Use the Phillips head bits that are a little bit bigger/wider at the tip. Otherwise, screwheads will strip out easily Doing this Definitely tightened up the Raised garden beds much more, making it more rigid But, did the chain anyway

I have three of these and have loved the last two but this one upon setting up already has spots in the metal that are starting to rust already. Kind of disappointed because my other ones that are a couple years old don’t even have those and this one does upon just opening it. Maybe it was just my luck. They’re built super solid and that’s why I’ve always loved them.

Great color. Easy to assemble. Exactly what I needed for my raised bed garden. Product is as described!

have not filled the bed yet. can only comment on assembling and materials.. hubby and i have been saving up... as we age we want to continue to enjoy gardening. we felt going from in ground gardening to raised bed gardening would help alot.. this year we bought 6 different raised metal beds. this one is the VERY BEST one out of the 6... the only "bad" thing was that the instructions suck... onto the good -- the metal is thick and sturdy, even before assembling.. there were no sharp edges at all. the paint job is really good... with the other beds the paint would scratch off just while putting them together... not a scratch on this one. all the bolt holes lined up. had issues with a couple of the other beds with bad hole cuts... after assembled it is "square and true". and super duper sturdy.. it has a bit of weight to it.. which is a good thing... i really like the color. very very pleased with this one..

Update: tried twice to start a return, each time got a message that it would need to be returned directly to seller and that labels had been emailed to me. They never were. No other way to contact the seller, Amazon gives no other options, return won't be processed until manufacturer receives the product. So, it's a product missing parts, with defective parts, and you can't return it. This thing failed in waves. First, this planter has a lot of screws, washers and wingnuts to assermble it, specifically 125 of each. Or, it's supposed to. Mine was missing the entire packet of washers. After complaining and going back and forth for a few days over email I was told they no longer had hardware for this planter and could not send me more washers. They gave me a partial credit so I could go to a hardware store and buy my own replacements. They also could not tell me the dimensions of the missing washers, but not that hard extrapolate based on the screws. I got the refund, got the washers, then went to assemble. 6 of 125 in, and I hit a problem. Screw and wingnut would fit togehter, but could not be tightened down at all. The screw wouldn't screw. Ok maybe one is a little off so I try another. Nope. Try to mix and match different screws and wingnuts. Out of a pile of 15 only 1 actually works. I'm 7/21 on the screw/wingnut pairs at this point and have had enough. This planter is just a series of metal plates with holes to assemble with hardware, and the hardware was either missing or remarkably defective. Waste of time and money. And now I get to deal with returning a large heavy awkward item that I no longer have a box for. Recommend if you have a few weeks left to get a last garden project in, but really dont' want to do it. Messing with this thing will force you to procrastinate long enough that snow will hit and the season to use it at all is over.

Great price, attractive & hold up well in harsh weather. Cold hasn't faded at all after a harsh winter. practical if your grlund is saandy or not conducive to plant growing. also can be used as an outdoor playpen before adding the soil!!
