Our container arrived in a remarkably small box (yea!), and two of us put it together with no difficulty - even working in the half-light of dusk. We used all the shipping cardboard in the bottom (along with wood and grass and compost), and after only two weeks we have corn & beans (from seed) along with some transplanted squash happily enjoying their new space together. I think the raised bed is nicer-looking and will make access easier than rabbit fencing. The product seems to be good quality. Time will tell. I might update to 5 stars in a decade or so.
