Tout est conforme.

This raised garden bed was exactly what I was looking for and more. I wanted a sturdy garden bed that was reasonably priced but easier on the eyes than your standard galvanized steel bed. First, this company really pays attention to detail from packaging to including extras (two pairs of gloves, a very nice screwdriver, and extra screws in case you feel you need extra support - which we didn't.) The garden bed was easy to assemble - easier to do with two people once the pieces start going together, but could be done with one. The instructions are clear and even include a few tips we found helpful. Once assembled (took about 15-20 minutes), it looks great and feels sturdy. We have about 24 cubic feet of soil in it now and have no bulges or buckling. Looking forward to a large, lovely garden this summer!

The planter bed forms are a great addition to our garden and efforts to grow some of our own vegetables.

I just received these today, so I can't really comment on durability. When considering my purchase, so much of the review comments I read dealt with whether or not these are easy to assemble. Since I've not completed that part, I felt it worthwhile to share my success.First of all, read the directions. It's one page. It's not really complicated, but there are some subtleties that, if missed, can yield a lot of frustration. For me, an important take-away is that you are sliding the long frame pieces onto the corrugated walls, not pushing them on. TIP: when sliding the long connectors, pull the wall piece in the opposite direction as this relaxes the height of the corrugation, reducing resistance. It felt natural to push the wall as you push the frame piece, but this flexes the wall making the corrugations taller, introducing too much resistance!Second, the key to the structure, stability and rigidity of these is all in the aluminum frames, not the corrugated walls. Proper positioning of the long pieces, followed by ensuring the bent part of the connectors (middle of long section and corners) snap in to the slots in the long frame pieces. While the instructions emphasize the exact position of the frame pieces, I found that close was good enough since snapping the connectors correctly would tighten everything up just fine.Third, it may not be obvious from the pictures, and it wasn't mentioned in the directions, but when you are joining each wall (long dimension or corner) remember that you should be overlapping the corrugation, not just butting up ends of sheet metal. I'm guessing that at least some who complained about sturdiness may have missed this point! (btw, I found no need for the self-tapping sheet metal screws to strengthen any part of the structure).Finally, as you may see in my pictures, my installation is against a retaining wall. I was able to I create 3 'C' shaped frames using the parts of 2 full kits (with corner connectors to spare). I understand you can get extra middle connectors or corner connectors from the manufacture, so you should be able to use these kits to make a variety of shapes. I was originally considering using metal roofing plus 2x2 pressure treated posts to anchor for a similar result. While these kits are probably 2x what I would have spent on raw materials at the big box, this result was very quick, and likely more portable that what I could have assembled myself. The one negative of these versus diy is that I could have built something with 18-24" depth instead of the 12" these provide.Two suggestions to the seller and manufacturer:- You can sell these parts to form a variety of layouts. Offering packs of extra center and corner connectors would open up a lot of options- 18" or 24" wall pieces would be a great option for deeper raised beds. Or, 'H' grooved frame pieces that would allow for assembling double height structures with the same 12" high corrugated walls could accomplish the same.

Not high enough to stabilize in ground and have enough above ground for planting
