Outland Living6-Ft Raised Garden Bed - Vertical Garden Freestanding Elevated Planter with 4 Container Boxes - Good for Patio or Balcony Indoor and Outdoor - Perfect to Grow Vegetables Herbs Flowers

This was a very sturdy and nice vertical garden. Was easy to put together and looks very nice in my yard. After this year I will drill the drain holes in that is the only thing I wish I would have done so I strongly recommend doing the drain holes.

Strong, pretty, sturdy. Very good for herbs, small plants, etc. Only minor annoyance is that, when you remove the planters from the rack, the holders have a tendency to fall off easily.

I love this planter! I spent months looking for the right vertical planter (without having to break my bank) and found this gem. First of all, I like that it's not made out of wood. Since I live in an apt, I don't want to move a heavy cedar planter when I change apts. Most of the options I found for vertical planters were made of wood (and expensive). Secondly, the assembly was not very difficult and everything fit together. I took my time, making sure I followed all of the steps and was able to put it together in 30 minutes. Lastly, it looks beautiful and has an option to drill into each planter box if you want to be able to have drainage (drain plugs included). Very well thought out, I highly recommend.

This planter is very easy to put together and is study when finished. It is well designed and looks great! I liked the idea of the cascading watering from level to level, but....There are no pre drilled holes is the bins I received. I had to drill holes myself. OK, no problem.No plugs were provided.There are different options provided in the manual for where you can drill the holes. There are 8 indentations in the bottom of each bin that are about 1 inch tall so you can fill with gravel to allow better drainage. As recommended by the manual, I chose to drill them at the top of one of these.The top bin is at the top of the curve of the frame, so is more offset than the other bins. As a consequence, the drainage from the top completely misses the bin underneath and falls directly on my patio. The others work as expected.I will be planting my seedlings this week and looking forward to fresh vegetables soon. Just a little disappointed that the drainage system did not work as advertised.

Very nice setup. I found it easy to assemble. My Strawberries, Spinach, herbs and other veggie seeds are thriving in this vertical garden. The garden boxes are larger and deeper than some of the others offered out there, which I was looking for along with food safe grade, and sturdiness. Happily, I found it all with this purchase!!

Fits the space perfectly. Very sturdy. Good quality materials. Nice design. So far I am very pleased with this vertical garden. The manufacturing company appears to be a strong going concern. That boosts my confidence in their products.

Easy assembly, durable construction. I anticipate using this for years.

Very sturdy and nice looking on my deck. Taller than some of the competitors.

Let me begin by saying that I gave Outland a bit of grief about my purchase before it even arrived, and in return I received the most prompt, courteous, and considerate customer service I’ve encountered in years. Honestly, I would place an order with this company again just to have an opportunity to deal with their team.The planter itself arrived very promptly, in spite of pandemic shipping. Though I don’t like putting the Amazon or UPS teams in harms way with these quick deliveries, I was really pleased in this instance, because it’s already planting time in my neck of the woods.The parcel is fairly heavy, and the contents are packed exceptionally efficiently. I laughed at the comment from the reviewer who said he took a claw hammer to the planter bins to pry them apart - yes, they were packed together tightly, but I’m a 60 year-old disabled woman, and I managed to get everything out of the box and ready to go with nothing but my fingers and a pocket knife to cut the sealing tape. I hope that other guy is using his kit to grow some spinach!Back to the planter - all of the parts were intact, and the package includes an excellent, very clear & easy to follow, and actually entertaining! instruction/safety manual. The entire thing, including drilling the side drainage holes, took me just over an hour to assemble by myself (please note that I really took my time, and while I’m a handy putterer, I’m no real whiz with a set of tools). “Construction” requires a Philips screwdriver and a wrench - that’s it. All of the pre-drilled holes in the frame aligned perfectly. I did have to wriggle the top of the frame quite a bit to get it down into the bottom section, but I’d rather struggle for 5 minutes over a tight, secure fit, than worry forever about whether or not the thing is safe. Once assembled, the planter is very sturdy and really attractive - even without plants in it. The lip of each planter bin fits neatly over a pivoting/rotating metal bracket on the frame, so they’re very secure, but have a little sway to them for easy access for watering, weeding, and harvesting.I drilled ¼” inch drainage holes in the fronts of the planter bins, as suggested by the instruction manual. Placing the holes in this location allows excess water from one bin to drip/flow directly into the planter box below it, reducing water waste and messes. I love this feature of the system. The suggested ¼” hole is a tad tight for the provided plugs, so I’ll have to drill them out a little more if I want to seal the planter bins up again.The inside measurements of the top of each bin are 24.5” x 7.75”, and they’re 8” deep, with a slight taper to the bottom. That gives a whopping 63 sq ft of growing surface. Each bin holds 28 litres/1 cubic foot of soil, according to the manual, so the 4 bins hold a total of 4 cubic feet/113 litres. The manual states that the weight, fully loaded with soil & plants, averages 60-70 kg / 130-160 lb.The bins in my parcel are an attractive brown - they almost take on a bronze tone in some light - and they’re very sturdy.I’m really happy that I took a chance and made this purchase. This planter is perfect for apartment/condo balconies and patios. If you want to grow your own herbs, greens, & veggies, but you have limited space, definitely consider investing in this portable garden. I’m a very picky shopper and a critical reviewer - I’d give both this product and Outland 10 stars if I could.

This was very easy to assemble, and I completed the assembly on my own. I built it indoors and then moved it on to the deck. I had no difficulty moving it on my own. The herbs and dwarf plants (tomatoes, lavender) I planted are thriving, and the planter has withstood extremely strong winds, and hail storms. It's also working well as a type of privacy screen that still allows one to look through the plants and into the rest of the yard. Absolutely one of the best gardening purchases that I have made!

Very nice and study

I am really happy with this purchase - thinking I will get a 2nd one next year. My veggies have gone from baby to thriving to uh oh please send an army of bunnies to help me at all this lettuce!The bins have been out for 3 months in full sun and not a sign of fading (got the brown ones)I chose to make the side drainage holes and added a couple of scoops of landscaping rocks to the bottom of each bin then filled with miracle gro planter soil.I assembled it by myself also, it only took about 15 min to do... and I'm neither strong nor nimble :)

Well built and solid. Holds rocks for drainage and earth well.
