Yaheetech 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

Fantastic…with some alterations!
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.

Great Planting
This item was perfect for my garden needs. The material is quite sufficient , it was easy to handle, the weight was easily handled. It’s the perfect size for a small garden, its raised sides keep the critters out and I didn’t need to buy anything. All the parts were there.

Better than expected!
This wooden raised bed was better than I expected. It was packaged and labeled very well and the quality of the materials is fantastic. The only issue I had was that the instructions were all pictures with no written instructions. The pictures were very accurate and, once I got the flick, the product went together very quickly with absolutely no problems. I am very pleased with the final product.

Not so green thumb
Easy to assemble. Well made. Added a weed prevention barrier under it. Good size but it takes twice the above ground garden soil mix you first put in as it gets compacted over time. Not a gardener but son-in-law it’s an experienced urban farmer who gave me vegetable plants. He has had two of these for about 5 years. Holds soil and plants well even with heavy rains. Like the grey color as matches house siding.

Very well packed, straight, smooth wood. Fast and easy to put together. Looks great. It is so nice that I ordered another!

I was excited as I started drilling this together but quickly realized that the pieces of wood don’t actually fit together… Tried to fit them together and drill but it just fell apart.
