Land Guard 8×2×1ft Galvanized Raised Garden Bed Kit, 108 Gallon Capacity Raised Garden Boxes Outdoor, Oval Metal Raised Garden Beds for Vegetables, Blue(with 10 Connecting rods)

Easy to assemble and looks great!

The directions are poor but common sense will finish it. Seems to be fairly manufactured and decent gauge considering the price. Design is good. We bought two and are doing away with two ends and joining the two into one for our space. Also we sprayed painted the bolt ends in black so they are hidden, just a different look that we liked better. Great value

Wanted to start transitioning my garden to elevated beds as I age. It took a while to get all that was needed layered in it (bark, hay, etc). However, we planted strawberries in it and they have really grown. As for being raised, it is still pretty low to the ground. I plan to look for a taller on to try out next.

My Maryland clay dirt is horrible—and let’s be real, I’m getting older. A raised flower bed solves both problems. You can fill it with quality soil, and it saves your back. The panels feel thin at first, but once you put it all together, the structure is surprisingly stable. Assembly takes about 45 minutes (lots of screws), and while one person can manage it, it’s easier with two. The color is vibrant, hasn’t faded since last year, and there are no sharp edges. Just be sure to place it on a flat surface—otherwise heavy rain will wash away your good soil. Pro tip: buy these out of season when the price drops. Your plants will thank you with healthier, stronger growth. “Your honest girlfriend-reviewer: saving you time, money, and buyer’s remorse.”

Just put these together and I really like them. I like the pale yellow color. It's a nice muted butter yellow. They are not super heavy duty, but they are very comparable to what most raised beds that you would put together would be made of. For some reason when I bought these I thought they came in a set of two, but it only comes with one (that was completely my fault, no idea why I thought that). But I liked them enough that I bought the second one. It took about an hour to put the first one together because we made a few minor mistakes. So I have a few pictures to help someone else hopefully not make the same mistakes. You want to put the five rounded pieces together first without putting any of the bars in the middle. We put a bar in that first flat panel the first time. Also always make sure the panels are overlapping the same direction. And the rods go in the second hole and the bottom hole in the panels. My husband also tightened everything with power tools which helped speed the process. All the screws and bolts worked for us. We had no problem with that and we did have extra at the end. The size and depth I believe will work perfect for what I am planting (beans, peas, cucumbers, carrots, radishes). I'm going to see how they do this year (my husband doesn't know this yet) but I will probably be buying more for next year's planting season!! We also put a little cardboard and mulch in the bottom and then it took about 10 yards of dirt for each 8 foot container.
