Banc de jardin 3 étages

This is a handy, sleek and functional potting bench. The reflective typle top shelf covering makes clean up easy. The addional ahelves are good for holding extra pots, soil, fertilizer, etc. And note hooks on the side! Perfect for hanging tools. Highly recommended!

This is a light weight potting bench, the wood is fairly thin, but when assembled it is pretty sturdy. Assembly took about an hour and directions were clear. The shelves are a nice feature, as is the hook on the side to hold garden tools are a towel. If you are looking for a heavy duty potting bench, then look elsewhere. As for me, I wanted something small and useful to keep on my porch for a quick repot of a house plant instead of treking to the green house. So this works for me. An added bonus...the wood smells nice and it is kinda cute!

Good thing this was on sale, even that was overpriced. The top pieces don’t lay flush so they are gaps all atoms the top. I recommend pre-drilling holes for the frame also as they did with all the other pieces. (See photos) If you hit a knot, the screw will either crack the wood (had that happen) or not go flush (see photos). I expected a bit of cheaply made but this is even less than expected. The leg protectors will accumulate everything cleaned off the potting shelf. The whole thing has only small staples holding it together. The wood is easy to mar as I did with just the little aluminum wrench they sent. (See photos) It doesn’t seem very sturdy until you add some weight to it. They sent a flathead screw driver instead of a Phillips head. The best part of this shelf if the bolts that hold the shelves to the frame. I don’t recommend using it anywhere except a garage, which is where I wanted it anyway. If you get it for $20, might be worth it, but don’t pay shipping. Wish I’d waited to see if Aldi has one again next year.

Assembly description as stated in product description: 【Quick & Easy Assembly】 No tools required—simple snap-together design for hassle-free setup. This is completely wrong. There are 30 screws/bolts included for assembly. It took my husband about an hour. Also, a cookie sheet has thicker metal that the top of this bench. I plan to use it on our covered back porch; hope it survives.

This garden bench is really cute and the cedar smells amazing. It could work well as nice outdoor decor but I’m just using it for storage in a small greenhouse. Assembly was relatively easy, and the screwdriver and wrench needed were included with the hardware. I used a Philips head drill for faster assembly though. The bench is sturdy and holds lots of gardening supplies. Although cedar is very weather resistant, I put the bench in a covered area so it will hold up longer.
