        I'm trying pole beans on this tower for the first time this year. It seems sturdy and is quite attractive in the vegetable garden.

        Tame your beans!

        By Purple Morning Glory

        Pros

        • Easy to assemble
        • Rugged
        • Smart Use Of Space

        Cons

          Best Uses

            Easy set-up, comes hooked together so no wrestling with it and having open hooks catch on fencing, clothes, etc. They come in two pieces - a top and a bottom, each one a collapsed square. You pop the squares open and then fit the female sleeve prongs of the top over the corresponding male ones on the bottom. The genius of it is that they aren't all the same length so you can line up the long ones first and then the short ones, instead of feeling like you don't have enough hands to line them all up at once. I have only just planted the beans but I am looking forward to having the usual sprawl contained! And lower risk of the bean complex becoming a sail in heavy wind - it's just a much smaller face. Like an old-fashioned bean teepee but even more space-economical!

            Disappointed

                Best Uses

                  I was very disappointed in the gauge of wire of this tower. While inserting it in the ground, several of the side wires broke off. They seemed to be lightly soddered to the frame. I kept wondering if I was doing something wrong. I am sure it will hold the beans but it is now a little lopsided and won't square up. The pepper and eggplant supports were sturdy and that is what I expected.

                  • Small space

                  will be able twice the pole beans as the bush beans and space left over,
                  So sturdy they will outlast me I'll put them in the will
                  compact so well for a small amount of storage space
                  Only good can be said
                  And "the greatest people" work there!

                      Pros

                      • Excellent For Climbers
                      • Tall Supports Work Great
                      • Very strong construction

                      Cons

                        Best Uses

                        • Cucumbers
                        • Pole beans

                        I've used these wonderful cages for beans and cucumbers for about five years, every year getting one or two more. They're a bit pricey but worth every penny as once installed they never need to be adjusted for the entire season. The long legs go deep into the ground and ours have never needed any ground staples. I have nine of them now and only the oldest one has a slight break in it. They fold flat for easy winter storage. My best vegetable cage of any type.

                        • Good Quality
                        • Simple assembly

                        Cons

                        • Pricey

                        Best Uses

                          The tower was simple to assemble. I had no problem fitting the top to the bottom by myself, in spite of having an injured thumb. I like that it will be easy to store. Good quality, so I was willing to pay the price. If it lasts a few seasons it will definitely be cost effective.

                          • Saves a lot of time

                          Cons

                          • Somewhat Hard To Stack
                          • Support Stakes Needed

                          Best Uses

                          • Yard Long Beans

                          The bean towers are a great replacement for the bulky, hard to store, and setup concrete hardwire rolls I used for a long while.
                          Take down should be a cinch, at end of season, too.

                          They do need support stakes, and I added cross braces, because of the spring and summer monsoon winds here in Arizona.
