vidaXL Garden Planter Powder-coated Steel 80x80x68 cm Anthracite

I have to admit it looks quite good once assembled but the effort required to reach this point makes one wonder if it was worth it. Firstly each of the 24 metal plates arrived covered with a plastic film which has to be peeled off by hand. This was not easy and took two of us about 2 hours. A pair of gloves is included as the (inadequate) instructions warn of sharp edges. This warning was well founded but I personally found it impossible to fix the small nuts and bolts which hold the bed together while wearing gloves! Consequently my hands and forearms were cut and nicked several times. Blood had to be wiped off the metal plates. Some of the nuts went right through the holes requiring us to search for washers to hold them in place.Actually fitting the bed together ... MoreI have to admit it looks quite good once assembled but the effort required to reach this point makes one wonder if it was worth it.

Quite frankly I wish I hadn’t bought it. It’s also quite flimsy.

If you don’t normally curse stay away from this item, it was very frustrating , tiny bolts and nuts, thin plastic covering hard to get off . But after all was said and done it looks good ! Just take a long day, get some booz and if you survive it you will have a nice planter! Overall I’m happy ! . They look good

Complete rubbish

Absolutely total waste of money as these so called planters are rubbish. They came as pieces of very sharp metal with sticky covers which took hours to remove then dozens or tiny screws to assemble and no bottom so basically rubbish and dangerous. I emailed complaints and was offered to keep product and got 50% off however this was prior to assembly and I am unable to use these so I may as well have burnt the money I paid for them. I can’t even give them away to people who has allotment as they are too sharp on the edges so are really dangerous

Dont buy cheap

Now i know why it was so cheap... to get the height i had to stack and i am pretty handy putting stuff together but geessss this was not what i bargained for (or maybe i did hence the price). Center holes need a longer screw so i wasnt able to connect in 3 center locations. Also the clear film doesnt come off (which i thought was only on there for shipping purposes) and it looks aweful!The only pro to this dang thing is it will hide an ugly tree stump and have a raised garden. Not the prettiest thing so i may try to use stencils to decorate it.I would have gave 3 stars if the plastic coating came off.

It's fine...until it isn't. I

It's fine...until it isn't. I bought a total of 3 brands and quality of raised metal beds and this one is my least favorite. The metal is too thin and it's flimsy. Don't get me started on the plastic that I had to peel away... package came on time and the metal was not damaged. I ordered the large round low size, but the instructions were for a small high one. Took me a bit to figure it out. It's fine for what I need it for, but would not recomment.

Kumquat tree is powder coated steel container

The end product is good--AFTER, however, time consuming assembly is done requiring peeling skintight plastic off the sections of the steel pot and screwing all of the pieces together. FYI, this is a bottomless structure, so it can't really be used on a patio. It worked for the tree I was using it for placed on the ground. The price is also better than *** or ***.

No Base, Sharp Edges and Fiddly to Put Together

There is no base to this, so it was no use for my purposes (plant pot).It also takes a good while to put together due to millions of tiny screws. The end result is lots of sharp edges where the panels join together

So dissatisfied. It has no

So dissatisfied. It has no base. Package came with a dirty glove and screws lying loose in box

The product is great except

The product is great except we are having to buy washers as the screws provided go straight through the holes. Otherwise really good product.

Very disappointed

I cannot comment on the item because two days before it was due to arrive my order was cancelled but the first I knew of this was an email saying my refund was on its way! I followed this up with Debenhams and got a very poor response. I was told it probably went out of stock just before packing. Very strange that this happened to all three items I ordered. Also strange was that all of the items continued to be advertised as available. I am not a happy customer. I have used Debenhams for years but there is something about this experience that doesn’t sit well with me. I won’t be rushing back.
