UPDATE (June 2026) Welp, one minor windstorm took this guy out. I had already moved it to the grass but that didn’t help. It tipped and one of the beams snapped. Never even had a chance to grow anything on it. Dropping my rating from 3 stars to 1 star.

PROS Doesn’t need to do much to be a trellis
CONS may not be able to do that one thing (ie Stay upright)
I’ve tried hand-tightening the brackets as tightly as I can, but the trellis still seems pretty wobbly and unstable. I’m not even certain it will stay up in a heavy wind. It is very wobbly.
Also, I received one bolt that did not match the rest of the set (it was shorter and required a hex wrench, while the others are Phillips head). Luckily I have surplus nuts and bolts, but if I hadn’t I would have been out of luck since the bolt they sent was too short to even be useable.
Because of these factors I’m only giving this 3 stars. Once winter is done and I can get it in my garden I will update on how well it holds up.
