This product was flimsier than I expected and very difficult to put together as the sections kept springing out of place. Once erected with stabiliser bars in place it seemed quite sturdy. I have not grown anything in it yet so I don't know how effective it will be

As expected
1ST Of great delivery service ordered on Sunday arrived Tuesday,also text on Monday with delivery date + choice of alternatives then text again early Tuesday with a 1 hour time slot for delivery again choice of alternatives delivery arrived as per time slot. Makes a change not to have to wait around all day for a delivery if you know date even.Now the product it is what it says it is. Made of plastic & corrugated plastic for self assembly. I assembled the item in under 10 minutes on my own. Once assembled it seems as robust as a plastic assembly is likely to be, pretty sure the potatoes will like it.End of the day it is what it is seems that it will do what it needs to the quality is as expected for this price, if you want something ornate this is not for you but simple and functional this is a good choice.

a bit flimsy
We were surprised to find the barrel was made of fluted plastic board and very badly made, so that it was a real struggle to assemble. I would not buy one again.

These garden barrels are quite stylish and really do the business. Only complaint is that they are very fiddly to put up and had my husband doing his war dance whilst using some choice words to accompany the assembly. I have recommended them to friends as after assembly they are really a useful bit of garden kit.

It arrived with the plastic cracked, so hoping it will hold up. It was so difficult to put together. Not worth the money since I don't see it lasting for 1 season, if that.
