I don't think the quality of this item matches up to the amount being charged for the product. It's very flimsy, and there are no drainage holes. I had to drill holes myself into the bottom of each side of the pot. In addition, the expandable center portion makes for a dirt collection center on the rail to which it is attached. It does, however, fit over a 1-2" railing as promised, which is the main reason it was purchased. All in all, I would say the cons out-way the pros for the price.
