Excellent product. Fits our porch rails perfectly. The overall appearance is very neat and complimentary. Because they are so easy to install and maintain my summer annuals, I ordered additional planters for our front porch in the white and they are beautiful. We have the bronze colored planters on our back deck and they blend with the decking but add the needed summer time burst of color from the annuals. Thank you, Linda

This is my third season with these planters and I loved them until about 10 minutes ago. When full of soil they are HEAVY (at least for me). I made the mistake up lifting it by the rim and it broke off cracking the side of the planter in the process. Grrrrrr. They look great and fit well on my deck rail. The wind is never a problem. So I am back to order a replacement and to WARN others NOT to lift them by the rim especially if they are fully planted and the soil is wet.

Already had 3 of these containers. Moved to a new house with larger deck. Ordered 4 more. Hope to get a couple more next year. A little pricey, but worth it.

They really do stay in place during wind storms. I think they could be at least 2 inches deeper to allow for root spread.

The ability to place on rails and add colorful flowers enhances my deck. That says it all for me.

The extenders that hold the planter to the rail also act like water reserviors and self water. Bought many to dress up my house to put on the market!
We received our planters in less than a week. They are now filled with plants and look great. We have people stop and ask where we got them and tell us how beautiful they look. I am so glad I found these as I don't see them in the stores.
Pros
- Fits the railing nicely
- Sturdy attractive
Cons
- None to Speak of
Best Uses

plenty of space & easy to plant the flowers.
