Beautiful containers
I purchased these many years ago and I love them so much. There is a nice shelf on the inside so when you fill with filler or dirt, you don’t have to fill the entire container, just the top 1/4. They have patina over time beautifully. Very rustic which is what I wanted.

Love, love, love
I bought three of these planters in different sizes for our desert backyard. They were extremely easy to put together. The solution they suggest takes FOREVER to rust them, so we went to youtube and found a video of a different method that worked wonders. You can easily search for the solution on there. Once rusted they really made our backyard look like a magazine. They have held up well in the sun and heat. They are heavy and sturdy. They do soak up heat so I keep aloes and plants that can tolerate the heat in them.

Be patient
Beautiful product…a bit hard to assemble, but we did. And we had to build a second one. We sprayed them to rust sooner. Very cool process. The height and width were perfect

Not as shown
I bought this item to complement some other planters because it was shown as rust.it’s silver steel. They assured me it will rust and nothing is happening in over a month. I reached out and asked for a compensation because I had to pay to have this planter assembled and if course no response . This planter weighs as much as I do so I proposed they arrange to have it picked up, u guessed it no response.It sturdy don’t get m wrong but definitely not worth the aggravation and be aware the advertising is false. No where in the description does it say it comes silver and will change to rust at some pointMy advice DONT buy from this company, so many other companies sell the same item but they actually come in RUST

Needs assembly and raw steel form
The media could not be loaded. So I thought they came rusted and assembled . Was super bummed but I really wanted them so I put them together and they are stunning . I’d buy over and over . Worth it .

Great Look
Well I have purchased several of this style planter and these are by far the sturdiest I have purchased. We are using these in a desert landscaping but would be attractive in any scenario.My biggest problem with them is the delivery service that deliver them (not Amazon), they either deliver to the wrong house, or they deliver them in front of my screen door. When delivered in front of the door, I need to go out the back door then go to the front so I can move them. Hmmm.

super cool, assembly took 40 minutes —before/after
I did have to take a few deep breaths trying to thread those wing nuts, not going to lie. But the final results are worth it. These are going to be so cool when they patina to their final stage.The pieces matched great, the small weld spots (that one review spoke of) will most likely disappear when they rust. I’m excited to fill them with plants. I went and sprayed them with the hose to get the process started. I will be looking into ways to speed up the process, I’ve heard vinegar in a spray bottle can help.UPDATE: I mixed Salt, Vinegar, and Hydrogen Peroxide in a spray bottle and sprayed them until they were drenched. I came back from running errands a few hours later and they were beautifully partina’d. They are under cover on my front porch so they weren’t going to have a chance to transform on their own.I love them. They reinforce the rusted tin skirting on my house. Coming together!!

Assembly may end your relationship, but your home value will skyrocket
First - these are gorgeous and incredibly sturdy. Here are a few items the instructions forgot:1. You will need to restock your band-aid supply (and I have "piano fingers").2. Have your friends come over - these are a two-man lift3. (At a minimum) Have an "I'm sorry for what I said during assembly" card handyOnce you've got it all assembled, inserts are very hard to find, I'm hoping the garden fairies leave one in exchange for my firstborn.All jokes aside, the customer service for this Veradek company is outstanding. I have several of their planters and love every one of them.
