I purchased the black planters. Overall I am satisfied with them. I like the size and the classic shape. They are heavy enough that they won't tip over and it was very easy to drill drain holes in the bottom with my small rechargeable drill. (Do this before you attach the bottom.) I wish the finish were smoother; it definitely has a bit of a recycled rubber/plastic look to it but, once my plants fill in and the "spillers" fall over the edges, it won't be noticeable since the flowers will take center stage. The price wasn't really a bargain given that I had originally seen the exact same pots on a national home improvement retailer's website for a few cents cheaper, but I had a credit for Joss and Main and free shipping, so I ordered them.
