Overall, we are pleased with the purchase. We bought one large and one small planter box. The larger one arrived with some damage to the box on delivery, but the smaller one was OK.
They were relatively easy to assemble, but we also found (as mentioned in some other reviews) that some of the slats were damaged and required glueing. It was a bit tricky as it was the 'tongue and groove' part but we managed to fix them. We are pleased with their appearance on our patio - they are as they appear in the description - and now hope they stand up to weather after planting.
