Although the planters look cool, this is one of those items NOT to buy online. Despite these planters being heavy metal construction, the shipping packaging is very poor, a low density foam sheet about 1/4" thick. As such there is little means to protect the edges of the planters through the shipping boxes and the geometry of the hand holds do not lend themselves to the shipping companies respecting the "Fragile" printed on the sides of the packaging. If you want something like this I would suggest a local purchase, even if done online, this is just not something that will be able to survive a cross country shipping unscathed.
