In windy locations, we recommend anchoring these towers with our Extra-Tall Earth Staples, sold separately.

Comments about Tomato Towers, Set of 2:
I bit on the idea that these were heavier than "ordinary" cages, better coated, sturdy, last longer, etc. Right out of the box, the first cage snapped a weld or two. This is my main complaint w/ the other garden store type cages. I will be trying to deal w/ Co. about this as I unpack and try to use the other cages. Maybe that is the only one -?- And the hinges come right apart, and this is annoying. I think I can bend the straight piece such that it will not come out of the hole, and that should make the cages easier to handle. Not sure why the hinges are shipped loose like this. For the premium price (which I was willing to spend for a premium product) I am not satisfied yet.

Comments about Tomato Towers, Set of 2:
I'm trying two of these for the first time this year and my plants are still small, so time will tell if these Towers live up to their promises. I grow a variety of tomato plants, and my beefsteaks generally need all the support they can get. The Towers seem like they will be ideal for containing and supporting the plants.

Comments about Tomato Towers, Set of 2:
This tower is REALLY tall...which made me think it would be great for peas and beans which climb. Unfortunately, the windows (between wires) are a bit too large and I'm having to train my peas and beans to climb it. They probably will as they grow taller but for now it's not as well suited for this use as I thought it would be. It would be great for tomatoes, and since it comes in two sections (top and bottom) it's possible to only use half in the early part of the season and add the second half as your tomato plants grow.

Comments about Tomato Towers, Set of 2:
I used a couple of these towers to support tomato plants last year. They seemed to do their job through most of the season. But when the plants were fully grown and loaded with dozens of not-quite-ripe tomatoes, a breeze (about 15mph) blew them down to the ground.
The towers didn't uproot themselves because the stakes were too short. No, the stakes stayed firmly in the ground while the frame of the tower twisted and bent under the weight of the plant. There was no way to salvage the mess of metal that the towers had become. And unfortunately, there was no way to salvage my tomato plants either; several of the main stems/branches had been severed and the plants were hopelessly tangled in the wreckage.
So after months of caring for my plants, rather than harvesting pounds and pounds of yummy fruits, I didn't get a single tomato. An entire season wasted because of these flimsy Tomato Towers.

The actual units were not as sturdy as they look in pictures. I actually returned them and bought something else.

Comments about Tomato Towers, Set of 2:
Although these tall cage supports are sold as for tomatoes, I purchased them for climbing pole green beans and they work great for that. I have a small raised garden bed, so need to grow vertically as much as I can. I plant the pole bean seeds around the inside and outside of the perimeter of the square cage, and they grow right up. This support has large square trellis shape that allow for my hand to reach through to harvest the beans and manage the plants. Sturdy construction, folds flat for easy winter storage. Great product. I am sure they would work great for tomatoes too!
