3 Tier Wooden Elevated Raised Garden Bed Planter Box Kit Natural Cedar Wood

My kids gave me this planter for Mother's Day. I love the look, was excited to get it put together and in use on the yard. Had a load of dirt delivered and it fell apart. This planter is now held together with a tie down strap because a corner blew out. Not sure what to with it once the veggies are harvested.

Slightly differs from the one I ordered last year. However, I love being able to garden with this planter. Plenty, of space for plants and easily reached to weed, prune or water.

I bought two of these planters and one was great, no wood glue and no cracks in the boards. The second one was full of pieces that had wood glue used to keep the boards together at both the middle and corners. The quality control on this product is disappointing and I'm sure that the one bed won't likely make it through more than a season of use. Positive is that they were pretty easy to put together though some of the by vets were switched on the corner pieces.

This is my 3rd one, I've bought. Happy with them

Sadly, I should NOT have trusted reviews from folks who havent filled/used it yet. I read prior reviews, and BOUGHT 12 of these 3-Tier Cedar Beds, trusting they would hold-up well. Unfortunately shortly after filling with a light raised-bed soil, many wooden corner joints began to split and several supports cracked from the pressure of watered soil. Note: I used Raised Bed Soil, not potting soil because these are a 20 cubic-foot raised bed. I returned the four unopened boxes and am stuck with eight cracking cedar planters that might fall apart within 1 year. Also: in case it matters, the cedarwood looks unstained/unsealed but *it is sealed*, so you cannot stain it your own color.
