I honestly LOVE the look of these and ignored all the other reviews about the insert not staying up because I wanted the planter.  When I got it I discovered exactly what the other reviews were talking about.  The insert design is really bad.  I'm not sure why they are being sold and shipped without fixing such an obvious flaw.  HOWEVER with that said I really love the look of them.  My husband just retrofitted it with some yard stones to get the insert to stay up.  They really are beautiful.
