easy to build and look nice
put 4 of these up for a small summer garden. They look nice.The units that tie the side together in the middle on the longer models is just glued together. They came apart when I put dirt into the units. I put a piece of 1/4" x 3' galvanized allthread rod in and double nutted each end. This works great and make them very sturdy.

Highly recommend, looks great in my yard!
This is exactly what I was looking for. I bought 2, one for each side of the driveway. Easy to assemble and very sturdy. I am already getting compliments and I haven't put in plants yet.

Two of these and love the durability....
I have two of these. I purchased one two years ago and the tomatoes overtook the box. So I bought a second one so that I can keep the tomatoes in one box and plant peppers, radishes and lettuce in the other box. These seem really durable.One item I don't like is the support bars in the middle. They are flimsy and the inserts spin when tightening the screw. It would be better, if you can find it, to buy stainless steel threaded rod, cut to length and use that in place of the support bars provided.Also I purchased all stainless steel bolts and nuts to use in place of the hardware provided. These should provide more durability.Packaging for these is VERY FLIMSY! Be aware of damage or missing parts when opening. They are shipping these in boxes that are meant for display, NOT SHIPPING. So be aware of damage on corners or possibly missing pieces due to box being destroyed during shipping.Overall, I WOULD recommend these units as I do believe they will last years.

Easiest raised bed
I purchased this item in March 2020 and set it up as soon as it came in. All the parts were in the box in good shape and it went together easily. It was easy to move to the final location and the center bar stayed in place even while I was filling it. It has now gone through 2 really bad storms and is holding up well. All the benefits of raised bed gardening are present without the worry of insects coming through the wood. My only negative was that by the time I received and put it together, they were sold out. I am hoping to get at least one more of these in the future.

Heavy Duty - very well made
Very nice heavy gauge garden beds. We bought 2 of the 8 foot ones. We already own 4 4 foot galvanized beds from another manufacturer and the Kotulas beds were much better made and higher gauge steel. Easy to put together. Very nice beds. Better bang for your buck!

Long-lasting, easy-assembly
All materials (sides, corners, screws, nuts and stabilizer bars) arrived intact in a flat box (49"L x 12"W x 2"D). Assembly was simple and quick using a screwdriver and wrench. This planter will last a lot longer than wood, and it looks better than plastic. This is working very well in my small backyard now, and I could easily disassemble and relocate it in the future.

well designed
The raised bed is easy to assemble and can easily be carried as a unit to move it to where you want to use it. It is plenty sturdy for containing the soil and looks very nice in the garden. Kotulas' customer service is also very good.

Nice for the price
Nice raised bed but the steel is kinda bright. Hope it weathers.
