I would give it less than a 1 if I could. After spending several hours trying to figure out how to put it together with no luck, we discovered that we did not have all the right pieces. For example, we had 5 #4 boards and were supposed to have 5. We had 3 #5 boards and we were supposed to have 2. We had 3 #1 boards and we were supposed to have 2. There was only one more board for the #2 and #3 boards and so we were missing one of those. Most of the board number stickers had fallen off the boards. The instructions are terrible. This is the worst thing I have ever spent money on. I’m going to try and return it.

This planter was a challenge to put together. The instructions were very vague and the boards weren’t all labeled. There are a lot of screws that need to go through three boards at a time.

Very nice quality but hard to assemble with the numbers on the parts falling off and the instructions and images were poor.

It came well wrapped and in a timely manner. However, all of the stickers that labeled each piece were found at the bottom of the box. Luckily, my husband is an engineer and based on the pictures alone. Because that's all we got.He was able to put it together.It's a nice bed butI wish the wood was a little thicker I also liked that it was made out of fir.

I love this planter and it’s look. As has been said, it does not have a bottom, but we were placing it in our previous vegetable garden, just replacing our prior low edging that was coming apart. It does take quite a bit to fill it, but I was able to use some dead branches, etc we had to take up some space along with some cardboard. I will have to add some additional soil next year due to settling Assembly does take a bit, but if you carefully lay all the parts out and pay close attention to the holes and where they are, you can figure out which piece is which. The labels came off during shipping of ours.
