cThese beds are beautiful. They arrive well packed, we had no broken or damaged pieces. We wound up short of 2" screws right at the end so had to use our own. I would recommend the company send extras. I waited for over two weeks for my order and had to call to check on it. They said they were waiting to hear from the shipper, which was FedEx Ground. It did finally ship though i did not receive an email from OLT. Also, I submitted two different email messages to their support/info email addresses with questions about water proofing and changing the location of the entrance door to my 8x16 foot raised bed and deer fence kit. No response to the emails. When i called I got general info that "many people put filter fabric or plastic on the insides of the beds." I suggest the company be more clear about options to prolong the life of the raised beds. I treated the insides and outsides of the beds with a food safe plant-based oil sealant for Garden Boxes, FDA approved. I also did use filter fabric on the insides of the boxes, even though we really try to avoid plastics. The time and effort to put the boxes together was a lot. Definitely more than 6 hours for the 8x16 +deer fence kit. I'm waiting for the dirt to fill them and some gravel for around the outsides, then we'll finish the deer fence. Can't wait to get started gardening again!

I ordered the deer fence option to use as a support for tomatoes, cucumbers, etc. No more stakes! Plus, everything growns at a convienient level, I can bring a chair in and work the beds easily. the gate keeps rabbits and other rcurious critter out! I did add my own version of a hoophouse roof for a partial shade cloth. I love this thing. The best growing spoace I ever had - and I've been growing over 50 years!

The garden bed is well made and pretty easy to assemble. We had the foundation professionally done just to make sure it would be even, level, and look nice. That was worth the extra money. My wife and I assembled it over about a week, doing small sections at a time. The 4 hour estimate on the website is a bit short. I'd give it a couple of days.
