For the clearance price, these were worth it. The self watering system seems to work well. I purchased two sets (so 4 total beds) and only planted in 3 so far, as the other one will have peppers which are not ready to go in the ground yet. I think they’ll last at least another two years. My only complaint is when putting them together, the end caps don’t fit easily when they’re put together, so I just left them off. There’s a photo to show what I mean.
