This was perfect for my needs. The distressed-look wood of the planter box matched the discarded, hinged shutter doors that I found in the alley near my home. I am growing basil (from seed) in these planters- purchased two originally & just ordered an additional one, as I like them so much. I attached the planter boxes to the shutters near the window, so I may have herbs in my kitchen. I love that they have snug liners! I paid attention to the measurements given in the description, and am extremely satisfied with my purchases X2.
