I do like the planter so far. It looks great in our space. After reading the Q/A, I have a few added thoughts. The bottom drainage holes do remove after unscrewing a nut thats inside the planter. You have to practically climb inside the planter to reach the nut... or have a really long wrench. There were notes about the styrofoam being left inside the planter if using outside during the winter. If that was truly the intent, then the material should not be white. Replace it with cardboard as an example. I lined the top shelf drainage holes with a coffee filter to keep the dirt from falling through to the bottom. These are pretty large holes so you need something to prevent the dirt from being lost. We'll see how it does...
