Love it! I used the raised garden as more of a planter for my balcony but, I'm really happy with how it's turning out. You don't need any heavy tools to put it together (besides a hammer of course). All of the pieces slide together and the tops of each corner are hammered in with nails they give you. I have not done that yet as I'm still constructing my little balcony planter but, I will once I'm done.
