8×2ft Wooden Horticulture Raised Garden Bed Divisible Elevated Planting Planter Box for Flowers/Vegetables/Herbs in Backyard/Patio Outdoor, Natural Wood, 95 x 25 x 11in

I look for the Yaheetech brand when I buy garden or planting items, as I have had good experiences with several of their products. These raised garden beds are no exception. They were very easy to put together. Instructions were simple and easy to follow. They look fantastic in my yard. I purchased two and am already considering buying another.

Easy to put together. However, assemble it in the place you are planning to keep it. If you lift it after assembly everything just slides apart. You do need to screw a few pieces, but it's for sturdiness, not holding it together. This is more of a raised border for your garden bed; it does not have a bottom. With that being said, it looks nice and I would purchase it again.

These are easy to put together. It took me 20 or 30 minutes to do two kids by myself. I even decided to move my garden beds somewhere else and it only took me 15 minutes to deconstruct and reconstruct these boxes. The wood is thin but I'm okay with that. It had a nice smell out of the packaging, I suspect it was sprayed with something to repel water or bugs, it kind of had a zesty smell like pine sprayed with orange rind. These look really nice, my neighbor has complimented me on these several times and even likes them enough that he's considering doing wood boxes in his garden next year. I like that these are modular, you can add four planks per post to build whatever configuration you want. I plan on buying more of these next season. $65 for a garden bed seems expensive but when I priced out lumber for the same size garden bed as a DIY project, all my estimates were between $80 and $100 per garden bed. I'm happy with these for the price, the functionality is good, they look nice. I'm happy with the size. We'll see how they hold up in the winter to ice and snow. It's been an exceptionally rainy summer with high humidity and continuous 90° and above days, and these have held up well so far.

These are super nice! Solid wood, easy to put together, and a great size for our raised bed garden.

Very easy to assemble! Loved not having to spend a whole bunch to get my garden going!

This raised garden has worked perfect for our garden! It’s very sturdy and thick enough to hold all of the soil in it. It was super easy to put together. We tilled under the bed to give the plants more room to grow. We have had great success with this bed. The size works great for those squash plants that grow out of control and need more room.

For the $85, you can't ask for more. One of the boxes in the background would cost $200 with the crazy cost of cedar right now. Is easy to assemble, looks nice (though looks processed!), and holds up well. Don't worry about the water in the 2nd picture - that has only to do with my momentary stupidity - which we need not discuss - nothing to do with the product. If you're putting a weed guard down, it's perfect for shallow root fruits / vegetables like strawberries, peppers, or onions. The actual height is about 9 ½", not 10". We made a few adjustments for a variety of reasons. First, if you want it taller for deeper-rooted plants such as tomatoes, you could easily add a board to do so. Second, for those who are complaining about boards splitting, here is basic construction 101: PRE DRILL. We didn't have any issues with splitting, but I can see where you would if you didn't predrill. Third: we cut the bottoms off the decorative posts. Yeah, they're pretty, but they'll hinder your garden. This will leave a gap between your side panels and the ground, allowing dirt to escape. Yes, you could also use a weed barrier along the sides, but that seems kind of weird to do for the one that rests on the ground. We DID do this on the ones in the background that we built, but that was only because these 8x6s were 3 high. Cutting the bottoms allows your boxes to rest directly on the ground, or, as in my case, to allow for bricks to be flush against the boxes. Which leads to my final point. Finally, especially because it is cedar / Chinese fir, it's very soft wood. If you want these to last any length of time, I advise putting something around the outside perimeter to push back. Why? Because the dirt (plus water) will push out on the panels, which will cause bowing, and quickly. This applies force inwards, which mostly prohibits that. Yes, it'll eventually wear and you'll have to replace it. But this will exponentially expand the life span. In the end, construction only, you'll spend abiut $100 per box if you're savvy and do it right. Which is still MUCH better than $200 for wood alone.

Pretty cheap and junky material for the price. It function as advertised I guess but you definitely need to run a screw into each joint to make it sturdy
