I love the ease of assembly. 
I ended up buying a second planter. Love the cedar fragrance. As other reviewers note, this is not a finely crafted planter, but for my purposes, it does the job. In the northeast USA, the weather takes a toll on wooden things outside, so it didn't make sense to get a more finely wrought planter, as they will only last a few years- perhaps ten or so if you put in a garage or similar over the winter. I would give five stars if the internal slats fit better. The manufacturer suggests that in assembling, you ought to have a 1/4 inch between slats, but that does not completely secure the soil! If you use this planter for smaller pots, it would work fine.
