We have thoroughly enjoyed our planters. We bought two initially then liked them so much we bought another, larger, one. Excellent quality and design. Ours stay out in the weather all year (today it is 15 degrees). They are on our small town home patio garden. One is used to camouflage HVAC with tall plants. They are light weight when empty. And guess what? when our Terrier anoints them it doesn’t show!! Love this product.
