Adorox 7.8ft Garden Arch Trellis for Climbing Plants, Metal Arch Frame, Pumpkin Archway Outdoor Garden Arbors and Arches for Halloween Christmas Birthday Party Baby Shower Decoration(Black)

Bought these with the intent of using them as support for my vegetables and vining plants. Since nothing has fully grown up yet, I can’t tell if this will work but I certainly love the look. It’s exactly how I envisioned it.Directions: Directions are ok but not the clearest. My advice is start at one end and continue all the way to the other side, left to right or right to left. I tried to work faster by putting together both straight ends first then adding the curve and that was a mistake. The poles in the drawing look the same so I thought what is the harm. if you do both sides and try to connect, the bars won’t go inside each other. I had to undo everything and start over.Quality control: It didn’t help that they sent one set missing a bar at the top. Since they sent me a new one, and I didn’t check prior to starting myself, I didn’t deduct anything from it but quality control needs to be better. Nothing worse than putting together everything to find your last piece is missing.Time: took me about 1-1.5hrs to put together 2 of these by myself.Quality: these are a little flimsy and move all over when you are putting it together but we taped two arches together which made it sturdier. Since these were for raised beds, the soil is keeping them in place in the ground. I do not know yet if it can withstand any actual hanging veggies or not since I just started my fall garden. We shall see.Bottom line: worth a try!

Product arrived on time with all the pieces. Be aware that setting this up takes some space and patience but the diagrams are easy enough to follow.The arch is Not meant to just stand on its own, it needs to be stabilized!If you plan on adding decorations to this for an event it pays off to properly anchor it, especially since any decorations you attach can get top heavy or catch the wind if you're outside.I personally used this as a trellis for my peas and green beans in the garden. All I had to do was leave the last rung off the bottom and push the ends into the dirt. It held up until we had a windstorm a week later and all that was needed to fix was some garden wire and stakes in the ground. It's been months now and no further problems.All in all a pretty decent product for the price, would buy again

Decent for the price. I needed something quick for a fast-growing vine so this services it's purpose. Very easy to put together. It is pretty flimsy but as mentioned, it serves it's purpose for what I needed. If you have high-wind areas or are expecting a very sturdy arbor for heavier flowers or items, this probably isn't what you need. I will say it's much larger than I expected, which was a good thing for my needs. I'm happy with it, especially the price.

I didn't use this for the advertised purpose. I used this for a Halloween direction. It was used for our walkway. I attached lights, two life-sized plastic skeletons, and creepy cloth to create an entryway. For $30 it worked well enough. I had to use stakes, fishing lines, and zip ties to keep it secured. It survived the rain and wind for a month. A few of the screws stripped after some use and it wobbled a lot.If you're using it for a one-day event, it's perfect. If you're looking for a permanent fixture in a yard, spend more money for a better product.

Arrived with rust already visible. Cross bars unable to use due to welding of nuts backwards or completely sideways. Very flimsy but was expecting that for price.

Great product, will order again.

My friends were getting married and their venue of choice was a sandbar halfway through a canoe trip on the Wisconsin River. I figured the setting deserved to be as beautiful as their marriage so I bought this archway and a couple packs of white balloons. The thing only cost $25, it had mediocre reviews, and I was brining it camping. My expectations were pretty low.The package was delivered in a tiny box relative to its setup size. Two conflicting thoughts ran through my head when I looked at the package. The size and weight was perfect for packing into a canoe, but I grew increasingly concerned about its structural integrity.So halfway through the float trip, we found the perfect sandbar. I set the archway up with a friend, but it easily could have been a solo mission. It felt a bit rickety when setting up and a few components had to be coerced into place, nothing too alarming or unexpected. Again, it was only $25. Overall, it went together in about half an hour. We stand the archway up and shoved the bottom verticals into the sand as far as they’ll go. The archway became surprisingly stable. We covered the archway with balloons and added some ivy from a nearby fern gully. The archway looked immaculate.The wedding commenced right around sun set. Beautiful ceremony. Tears and smiles. Memories.Overnight, there was a huge storm. I woke up in the middle of the night in what I thought was a lake because the tent decided to leak. At sunrise, I escaped from the wreckage that was my tent and looked towards the archway. Most of the balloons had popped, but the archway stood strong.When I bought the thing, I wasn’t convinced I would get it assembled without it failing in some form or fashion. I never expected it to withstand the storm. I don’t know how much people typically spend on wedding venues, but it’s probably North of $25.

Thin cheap metal. But expected with the price. The instructions were pretty basic. Not hard to assemble. Does NOT come with anything to anchor to the ground. Very light. DOES BLOW AWAY. Only extra pieces you have is a screw. So don’t lose parts.
