Woodside 5 Tier Wooden Decorative Garden Flower Herb Planter

I initially bought this so that I could have pretty flowers cascading down to produce a mass of colour! (That is the last of the gushy poetry). When it arrived it resembled Noah's Ark in a Flat Pack. However, it went together pretty easily but I'd suggest an extra pair of hands would be beneficial. It is deceptive, in the picture it looks much larger than it actually is (and yes, I should have checked the sizes provided). I have used it as a miniature Herb Garden - However, the sections only hold a small amount of soil and you must get a good mixture of soil and mulch because it doesn't take very long for the soil to dry out. Other than that, It's a good and sturdy product, it would benefit from some wood preservative if you have the time. It arrived well packed and turned up quite quickly. I'm satisfied with my purchase. I shall be placing it in my greenhouse for the Winter with a watering can close by so that I can water my herbs occasionally

The Woodside 5 Tier Wooden Decorative Garden Flower Herb Planter is a fantastic addition to any garden or outdoor space. Its tiered design, sturdy construction, and ample planting space make it a practical and visually appealing choice. Whether you're a seasoned gardener or a novice, this planter provides a convenient and stylish way to showcase your favorite plants. With proper care and maintenance, it will undoubtedly bring beauty and functionality to your garden for years . One potential improvement for this planter could be the addition of a protective coating or treatment to enhance its durability and resistance to weather elements. While the wood seems solid and well-made, applying a sealant or weatherproofing treatment could further extend its lifespan and maintain its attractive appearance over time.

This planter was easy to assemble, after which we treated it with 2 costs of yacht varnish before staple-gunning in the supplied liners. Then we planted two strawberry plants per tier. It looks really good and is excellent value for money. Some people have commented on the lack of pre-drilled screw holes, but we didn’t find that to be a problem at all.

I really like the look of this and, despite the reviews warning that it was poorly made with not enough pilot holes, I took a punt and bought it. Well, the other reviews were not lying, this item seems to be missing about two thirds of the required pilot holes for screwing it together. Luckily I have a drill and used a 1.5mm bit to create these pilot holes in the appropriate spots, but it took me at least 90 minutes to figure all this out. I bought this 3 months ago and if I just tried to screw it together with no additional holes, I think I would still be sat there turning the blunt wood screws into flat wood. Also, the holes that are prepared are not countersunk. This little planter does look nice, but only buy it if you fancy a little afternoon project, it is not fit for purpose as a ready-made item.

nice & good quality

It’s definitely smaller than the photo and can be tricky to put together. I found it best to ignore the instructions, I put assembled the bottom 4 troughs and butted the bottom one to the bottom of the back, then butted each one to the top of the next. Then attached the side supports to the top shelf but before attaching the front panel fix the screws to the supports. Then attach the front panel last. It’s sturdy when filled with earth and should look nice when filled with some herbs. Value for money and arrived even faster than advised. Overall happy and would buy again.

Wanted for alongside a brand new hand build raised pond and it fits perfectly. I unfortunately managed to get the top two shelves wonky on first attempt but fixed by restarting with the bottom one, stapling the liner in place then putting the next shelf on and repeating so I only had to get the bottom shelf straight and the rest followed. It's not the most expensive looking planter, but it looks pretty good, is sturdy, compact and the pieces feel solid. I'll give it a varnish and probably put some strawberry plants in the top, let them cascade down and hopefully encourage the frogs to explore the pond.

Really awful, difficult to construct and the instructions are not clear at all. The wooden pieces are warped and not straight. Screws stick out of the side of the structure. Extremely overpriced and disappointing.
