The bench came in a long box and I dreaded having to assemble it. But once I got it out, it could not have been easier. The frame unfolded and the shelves set in, and I didn't even need a tool for anything. It was terrific, and I couldn't be happier with it. Fits in the spot I had for it perfectly.
Overall I really love my potting bench. It is very light weight and was super easy to assemble. Sadly, after only one summer season the soil pouch has deteriorated due to the sun. I do live in Colorado so that may have something to do with it. I will probably make a new pouch out of something more durable.
I liked the bench. I have it on the patio hold plants and as a buffet for entertaining. The only issue I had was that the 2 welds that hold the folding hinges on one side broke. Not enough to send back, but will need to get fixed locally.
Bought this as a potting bench and buffet for our new patio. It was easy to set up and works great for both purposes. It is a handy place to take care of the pots and hanging baskets for the patio, and for parties we clean it off, put ice in the container and use it as a bar/buffet. We gets lots of compliments on it.
My wooden potting bench finally died, and I was looking for something that folded up for winter and wasn't too heavy. This bench is perfect. The hangers are good for handtools and the potting soil holder is very handy. Great purchase.
