The raised beds are great, work as you'd expect. Assembly of the actual parts was easy but the plastic they put on there is ridiculous. It took me longer getting the plastic off all the pieces than it did actually doing the assembly. They need to find a better way to protect the pieces in the box.

These are the best beds I’ve used yet. Very sturdy, easy to assemble and great quality!

Purchased 2 of these beds (4 x 8) last year, but didn’t get around to putting them in until this year. Pretty easy to set up, and they look great! The only issue I have is the netting, lights, and irrigations systems DO NOT adapt to these beds. My mistake in not researching more, but from what I understood they would be compatible. The lights are definitely not due to the “bump” in the back that fits in the ridges of the classic beds. Also, the nets and irrigation system should be compatible-as the screws and bolts fit, but the spacing makes it impossible. I didn’t want to deal with a return after already assembling the beds and accessories, so I crafted a cedar frame to place just inside the raised beds, then attached the poles and irrigation system. Would love accessories that are compatible with these beds!

agree with the other comments about the plastic and grommets. a pain to take off the plastic, and when. the grommets become loose, they just spin, making it impossible to tighten properly. some of the grommets also didn't line up, again making the assembly a pain. I see why they discontinued this model
