This product is great for tomato plants,I love the fact that you don't have to tie them up in any way they just lay there......PERFECT!!!They are a bit tough to keep in tru,they keep slipping off track,too much time is spent on putting them together,but once you do they are great!!!!! Rust proofing is definitely a must!!!!! There not worth having without it.I hope you can rectify this problem.

Comments about Tomato Towers, Set of 2:
This is our third year using the tall tomato towers. I bought them because I hated the flimsy hoop towers which would fall over unless we staked them—and often even then, bent and warped if you looked at them wrong, and were a pain to stack and store.
Our tomato plants can reach 7-8 feet in height if left unpruned, and the tall towers are quite sturdy and will support them without problems. It's easy to get to the interior of the plant for harvest or pruning, and when the season is over the towers fold flat for storage. I LOVE them!
They are expensive, especially if you have many tomato plants, but they are well-made and they last, thus making them a good value. I can't recommend them highly enough.

Comments about Tomato Towers, Set of 2:
Bought 2 last year--they were great, so I bought 2 more this year. They held up under huge plants even in some 40+ mph wind. They collapse for storage. They are expensive, so I'll do two a year till I get enough. But, they are worth it for a great tomato.

I had been looking all over the internet for a tall enough tomatoe cage for my heirloom and domestic tomatoe plants. I ordered 6 to start and once my husband and I put them together which was very easy, and put them in our garden, we decided to add 2 more. So far so good. Easy to get to the plant to water, pick, plant, add dirt, etc. I would recommend these to anyone.

from West Chester, PA on 6/4/2011
Comments about Tomato Towers, Set of 2:
The height of these is excellent, and the width fits well over the tomato tepees. The wire is flimsier than other cages I've used, the connectors holding the vertical rungs to the horizontal rungs easily come apart when pressing into the ground and are hard to re-insert, and most importantly, 2 of the 4 I received were rusted at the solder junctions. Not the quality I expected for the price or from this company.

Really love these tall cages. We had a frost scare one night. It was very easy to pop off the top section, cover tomato plants with tarp and put the tops back on in the morning. The square shape allowed for easy tarping without damaging any little plants.

from mountain view, ca on 6/1/2011
Comments about Tomato Towers, Set of 2:
I love that each tower comes in two parts, allowing the use of the bottom half alone until the plant is tall enough to require the top half. The tower has the perfect dimensions to fit in our raised beds and to provide support in all the right places for the prolific tomato plant (not too narrow and not to wide). This tower was also the tallest that I could find anywhere, which will be enough for this tower to provide support to the topmost branches where all other cages fall short.

Comments about Tomato Towers, Set of 2:
I've only been growing tomatoes for five years. My plants are very tall indeterminates, and each year I've been frustrated by plants that outgrow my cages. My plants also blew over in last summer's heavy storms, causing me to lose a lot of beautiful tomatoes. These towers are the sturdiest I've seen yet. Everyone in my neighborhood is jealous of them!

Comments about Tomato Towers, Set of 2:
These things are awesome! I grow a variety of cherry tomatoes in very large pots. Last year I had them tied up to an 8 ft. step ladder. The towers fit into my biggest pots and I used a short bungee cord over the edges of the pot to ensure that they don't tip over.Much tidier looking than the step ladder. I will probably get more next year.

from Seattle on 5/24/2011
Comments about Tomato Towers, Set of 2:
These are much stronger and look to be more durable than the flimsy ones sold at some garden centers. That's why I ordered these. I wasn't disappointed in the quality. Price was more than the garden centers but quality is better and I will have them for years. The cages don't look like they will bend like the other flimsy ones. Raised beds grow giant tomato plants like I found out last year. These should keep them from sprawling and making a tangled mess.

from Napa, CA on 5/23/2011
Comments about Tomato Towers, Set of 2:
A reasonably priced, satisfactory tomato cage that can also be used for Dahlias. Stacking for height is a plus. Biggest drawback is that when the cage doesn't go in the ground at a 90 degree angle, a common occurrance, the cage has a tendency to separate vertically. Then you have to either take it out of the ground to try to put it together, or struggle with each fitting separately. A real pain. Not the type of experience I expect from Gardener's Supply.

Comments about Tomato Towers, Set of 2:
The tall tomato tower cages I received appeared at first to be well made and well designed with its ability to fold flat, but when actually assembled proved otherwise. Several welds broke, hinged corners came undone, and what I had high hopes for turned into a quagmire and comedy as I had to try and fit the hinges back together and wire the broken weld areas so they would stay together. This happened with both sets. I hope the smaller cages I ordered will not prove to be the same quality.

Comments about Tomato Towers, Set of 2:
We used these cages last season and was so surprise that they held up in our wind weather in the mid west. They also supported our over grown tomatoe plants to the max. We had some tomatoes that weighted in at 5 lbs and not one cage bent. The only issue we had was that we only purchased 2 sets but we planted six tomatoe plants. Little pricey but well worth the money. Will be able to use them again this year.

Comments about Tomato Towers, Set of 2:
I grow indeterminate tomatoes. For the summer of 2010, undecided as to which I would prefer, I ordered two of the stacking ladders and two of these tomato towers. The towers win hands down and I am ordering more towers for 2011. The towers, being rectangular in shape, have more stability plus there are many more surfaces (wires) for tomato vines to cling to. My husband and I had to put guy wires on the ladders to keep them up in a strong wind. The towers were fine on their own.

Last year's tomatoes grew fantastically well, and quickly overwhelmed the smaller supports I had for them. One of the disadvantages with growing indeterminate, heirloom varieties.

We are using these tomato towers in our raised gardens and in pots. They are better made than the tomato towers and cages we have used in the past from the local garden stores. They will be easy to store after use. They are very sturdy and will be able to support a heavy tomato crop. The bean towers are also great. We look forward to a splendid garden this year with the help of your products.

The tomato cages [...] I'm very anxious to use them but our winter has been rather long this year, have the cages parked out in our sun room next to the snow shovel. Hopefully it'll be nice from now on...it'll be a while til I can use them but I'm sure they'll do the trick. Last year my heirloom tomatoes took over one of my raised beds and I needed stronger and taller cages for them.

These towers hold the weight of my largest tomato plants where others toppled. I love that they store flat. Buy extra tall earth staples if your plants get large or your area is prone to strong winds. Do not get rough when taking the towers down. The panels will separate at the corners if you get rough with them.

So much better than any thing I buy EVERY season. Others do not last more than a season. These are easy to store, sturdy enough to hold up a full grown tomato plant in the wind, and tall enough to capture indeterminate varieties!
Will definitely get more. They come apart and fold for easy storage.

I had these for 2 years and I store them inside for winter, and some of them rusted pretty badly. I have a nice garden and I cannot use rusted supports, looks horrible. I found Texas tomato cages and they also fold for storage, but they are round (won't scratch you) and larger in size 24"x6' and 18"x6' in the same price range, but I hope they would resist rusting. I will be buying these to try.

Comments about Tomato Towers, Set of 2:
Finally, a system that holds up my tomato plants. I've tried the store-bought supports and also the tomato ladders. As the plants grew, they got out of control, fell over, etc. The tomato towers actually contain the growing plant, holding the tomatoes off the ground so they can ripen without going bad. Since I am doing one-foot, raised bed vegetable gardening, the towers also keep the sprawling tomato plants from taking over the neighboring veggies. The towers are easy to put together and sturdy. I can't speak to how they will store, since this is my first year with them. But I bought this double set so I will have more of them next summer!

Every year I've tried a different support system for my tomatoes but now my search for the perfect cage is over. These really work. Love the two stage option. When the plants are small in the spring you only need the base. My tomatoes are in my front yard so the option of not having the tall cages sticking up above the flower garden is wonderful. Add the second stage when needed. Incredibly sturdy - didn't even need the long staples to keep them from falling over. I LOVE THEM.

Bought these for growing pole beans on in a planter. The supports designed for pole beans were too big to fit in the planter but these were narrow enough. So far they are working great and the beans are climbing their way up them. Like the fact that they come apart and fold flat for storage. Much better than the tomato loops that my parent had that were stored in piles next to the garden! Good design.
from Grand Junction, CO on 8/9/2010
Comments about Tomato Towers, Set of 2:
I am disappointed that in arid Colorado (western slope), it is rusting. The holes are not large enough to get heirloom tomatoes out without bruising. It is a little difficult to line up the 8 parts to get the top on the tower (but cannot think of another way to design it). Despite the foregoing, I prefer the tomato tower to my old tomato cages. It is sturdier and wonderfully tall.

Comments about Tomato Towers, Set of 2:
Our cone-style tomato frames were bent out of shape in a storm, and the plants were bending over badly; we thought we'd lost them. We decided to try the tomato towers and it was an excellent decision. They took a bit of 'tweaking' to assemble, but the extra few minutes was worth it. They withstood a HUGE storm in the Washington DC area last weekend, remained upright and the plants are still intact. Our hummingbirds think they make great vantage points too! I would definitely recommend these towers - I'll probably buy more of them.

Comments about Tomato Towers, Set of 2:
Some tomatoes just keep growing! These are just tall enough to keep them contained. They are a bit tricky to assemble and place because they come in two sections that separate much more easily than they go together. Once in place, though, they seem quite secure. Just remember to lift and move them while holding the lower section to avoid pulling the upper section off.

Comments about Tomato Towers, Set of 2:
Our cone-shaped tomato frames were blown over and bent out of shape in a severe storm. We knew they were beyond repair, so sent for two tomato towers. [...] We're delighted with them...they needed a little bit of tweaking to close them, but the plants, which we thought we might have lost, are upright again, well-supported by these sturdy items, and are bearing fruit. We've had another storm since then, and they haven't budged. Will probably order more. Thank you, Gardeners' Supply!

I am fortunate that my tomato plants grow very tall, full and produce well. I needed something to keep the plants upright without having to constantly tie them to a pole and look organized. These tomato towers did the trick. My tomato plants are growing straight up and contained in the cage, making my garden looks great! The openings in the cage are large enough making it easy to harvest my 1lb plus tomatoes.

Great to have something tall enough for my plants! The only downside so far is that my tomatoes are trying to escape through the sides. I think I have them trained now so they will go up and not out. My neighbor is jealous of these because they fold flat. I plan on getting a few more for next year.

I enjoy growing heirloom tomatoes. Most heirlooms are indeterminate plants that tend to sprawl. The tomato towers are the only support system I have found that works. The first ones I ordered were so effective I added two more this season.

Purchased 2 sets last year and again this year, as well as a set for a gardening friend who was so impressed with mine. Srong, heavy duty support, especially for very large and tall heirloom tomatoes, that were difficult to suppoet in older traditional cage.Only drawback is the insert places for the top section, as well a the top section inserts rust, making it difficult to attach. Will be sure to clean and oil before storing @ end of season. They are easy to fold and store.

Comments about Tomato Towers, Set of 2:
I have over 33 years as a home gardener, and currently plant 110 square feet of tomato plants each year. This is the best tomato cage that I have ever owned! Not only is the tower very sturdy, but it can be used short for Romas, and then with the extension which is provided, it is tall enough to handle sprawling Brandywine. We have some high winds and thunderstorms that usually knock over my tall tomatoes in the filmsy, inverted cone shaped cages that I have had to replace many times. I wish I knew about this tomato tower years ago, so that I could have saved myself money, which I could have used for more gardening toys!! :-)

These tomato cages are off to a great start in my 5 year old self watering tomato pots. They seem like they will be able to hold a lot of vines and the tomatoes as they start to load down. Given the height I will need to tie the tops to the garage so they don't topple - they are simply too tall to stay upright, especially if there is a bit of wind.
Love that they fold flat for storage over winter.

Comments about Tomato Towers, Set of 2:
They have yet to be tested by growing tomato plants. Appear to be sturdy and supportive. However, assembly was difficuld. The units were jammed togeather and had to be pried apart. Lining-up the top section legs with the openings at the top of the bottom section was a challenge initially. We found that inserting one side first then rocking the top unit away from that side gradually matching the two adjoining sides and finally the opposing side worked quite well. Perhaps the instructions could suggest that approach.

This is the second set of these cages that we have purchased because they work so well at containing the tomato plants. The are sturdy and will not blow over in the wind. They contain plants that grow very large. Last year we had a tomato plant that grew up, out the top, and over the sides of this cage and it produced loads of tomatoes. These cages allows you to let the tomato plants grow free like that. They produce more when they have more branches to produce from.

I ordered 2 of your tallest tomato towers among other items and I am SO pleased with them. I had the 2 sections connected together until recently when I discovered that 2 out of 4 of our red cabbage plants had been eaten by some varmit. I took off the upper sections of the tomato towers and stuck them around the remaining cabbage plants since our cabbages will be harvested before our tomato plants are tall enough for the upper sections. My husband now thinks I am a gardening wizard for saving our remaining cabbages from critters. I have to give your all the credit for creating such wonderful and practical tomato cages. We will own these for years to come...I just love them AND all of the other products we have purchased from you. Thank you!

I grow a lot of heirloom tomatoes, some of which get quite tall. I've tried lots of methods to support my tomatoes including staking, spiral stakes, traditional cages, etc. Last year I bought two of these cages to try out. They are tall enough to support my heirloom varieties and wide enough to provide a stable base. No more tying up top-heavy tomato plants. I'm buying more this year!
Comments about Tomato Towers, Set of 2:
Not sure about these. Our garden is new, with soft/deep soil. But when I push these into the ground the corners come apart. You have to keep them very level as you're pushing them in. Seems like the corner loops should be closed tight enough keep them from slipping apart.

I ordered a similar product from another company earlier this year, and Gardener's Supply's product is FAR superior with a better price. I'm very pleased with these tomato cages so far. They are well made, easy to install and are working great. I might add that they've also survived the first torrential storm of the season here in North Texas (high winds & flooding rains).

Comments about Tomato Towers, Set of 2:
After years of not doing so well in the staking department (being something of a laissez faire gardener) I decided to splurge out on a pair of these taller cages, even if they were a bit pricey. I now wish I'd had them years ago because they almost paid for themselves this year in the time and hassle saved as well as getting a better yield. They did just as well with a more sprawling salad tomato as they did at holding up a fairly heavy beefsteak type and even accommodated the overrun from a third rambunctious tomato vine in one of those round cage horrors.
They held up well over the long California growing season with no bending or twisting and I may well be getting two more in the spring. Would definitely recommend for beginning veggie gardeners.

I bought these for last season and was so pleased that I have returned for more. They were excellent at supporting our tomato plants and were very easy to set up and take down for winter storage. I will not go back to tying up plants to a stake anymore. This was soooo much easier and worth it.

Comments about Tomato Towers, Set of 2:
Much easier to use and store than the home-made tomato cages I've used for years. Suggestions: 1) Wire receptacles should be on the bottom of the upper section (not top of the lower one) so water doesn't accumulate in them. 2)Sharp edges on wire ends can scratch you if not careful. Should have been rounded off as part of mfg'g process (would add some to cost). I capped them with electrical "wire nuts" (solderless/twist connectors) which should last a few seasons.

I purchased sone tomato ladders (with the extensions) AND some cages to see which I prefer before ordering more for my indeterminate tomatoes.
My plants at this point range from about 2' to 5' tall, and so far, both the ladders and the cages are doing their jobs nicely.
Visually, I prefer the ladders.
Will report back as my plants progress in height.

Comments about Tomato Towers, Set of 2:
I already had a set of two tomato towers. I used them last year and this year. I also had conventional cone shaped supports. Last year my tomatoes did not do well due to lack of sun. Over the summer of 2008 I lost two mature trees in my yard--one to spring storms and the other to Hurricane Ike (exatly one year ago today!). So this year I have more sun, and made two more gardens in a now sunny area. I used the tomato towers and the cone shaped supports. No comparison. The towers held my heavy tomatoes up even when they were very heavy with fruit. Next year all four of my plants will be supported by the towers.

Comments about Tomato Towers, Set of 2:
I have a number of very tall native plants that need propping up. Nothing else is as tall as these towers, so I build and separate them to become more linear and surround the large plants. The plants then remain upright. I use the towers on green headed coneflowers, New York ironweed and a cup plant, all of which grow to 10-12 feet.

from Raleigh, NC on 9/9/2009
Comments about Tomato Towers, Set of 2:
We had ordered and used these tomato cages a year prior. Because of their expense, we decided to use a shorter, less expensive tomato cage. As the plants got larger, the cheaper cages began to tilt--so we bought poles to keep them from falling over. With the first windy storm, the cheaper cages fell over. The tomato cages from Gardners Supply stayed put and did not sway in the storm. We have now bought two more cages from Gardners--we will probably add two each year. They are well worth the extra expense.
from Oxford, OH on 9/9/2009
Comments about Tomato Towers, Set of 2:
I put out 24 tomato plants each year. For years I supported them with flimsy wire cages that sagged and sometimes fell over. By next year I'll have all my tomato plants supported with the tomato towers. They do not sag or bend under the weight of a bountiful yield of tomatoes. And that part of the garden looks great, too, even late in the season when the garden has become riotous. I'm also able me to place the plants closer together, since the towers guide the plants toward vertical growth.
from Los Ojos, NM on 9/7/2009
Comments about Tomato Towers, Set of 2:
I used this for my tallest tomato plants without securing the towers in any additional way. Harvesting the cherry tomatoes was easy and the towers withstood typical NM windiness. Removing leaves to encourage ripening from the bushier tomato plant was harder but I have had more trouble with the usual tomato cone supports. Initially,it was hard to pry one of the towers apart from its folded into fourths shipping position- I used pliers and upward and downward force which popped the rods out of the side coils. Reassembling required that I bend the rods a bit to get them to stay in the coils, but this did not seem to affect the sturdiness of the tower. I plan to store the towers folded in half.

The tomato tower is easy to use amd grows with the plant. I do wish that the wire gauge was heavier but this product is working well for us.

from Boise, Idaho on 8/1/2009
Comments about Tomato Towers, Set of 2:
These towers are sturdy, hold the weight of a heavy tomato crop, and the "legs" are long enough to keep the tower solid in the ground. The fact that they collapse/fold makes them easy to store. I purchased two of these about three years ago, and have just purchased 10 more. (OK, so I may have just a few too many tomato plants, but no tomato will go un-eaten!) The older cages have held up very well. My only complaint is that two of the "sleeves" that hold the top section to the bottom section have fallen off. The sodder/weld must have broken. This may have happened during the winter, when I didn't get them stored inside the garage. The cage is still functional, and I will be more careful to store the new towers in the garage over the winter. The large 8" openings allow for easy picking, and also give space to bring new growth up into the inside of the tower (even if it's a week or so before I get back to the vines). Well worth the investment, with a little care in storing inside over the winter. Great for indeterminate tomatoes, any variety of tomatillos, and taller pepper plants.

This is my second set of tomato towers. I loved the ones I got last year and purchased a second set. They just pop right into shape, taking no time at all to set up, or take down. Plus, if I am diligent in tucking in the vines as they grow, there's far less to tie up than with other cages. When I used shorter cages I always had to pound tall stakes in the ground to keep them upright and provide something to tie the vines to.

Works great for keeping tomato plants off the ground and upright in the wind. Easy to reach through to pick ripe tomatoes.

Comments about Tomato Towers, Set of 2:
I bought these for my two Earthboxes with 4 plants total. The plants were semi-established (about 2.5 ft high) and I needed to stake them somehow - saw a you-tube video of a womans'earthbox garden who had used these extra tall towers on her tomatoes in her Earthboxes. She used in a diamond shape, since they are square, so did I. This year is an experiment for me-I have tomatoes in the ground, in the hanging upside down planter here in this website and I bought 5 Earthboxes. The self-watering container plants are by far the most abundant growing plants that I have. These towers are providing the necessary strength that these plants need to withstand the wind and the weight of the plants in general. I would recommend them wholeheartedly to anyone growing tomatoes, they are meant for the ground garden, but they can be modified for container planting too.

I garden in a city. The tomato towers hold my tomatoes, cukes and small pumpkins off the ground. They work great for peas and vining crops as well in saving precious space. My garden looks well kept and organized to those passing by (and to my husband, a tidy man). It is amazing how much I can fit into my small space by using the towers!
from Brighton, MI on 7/23/2009
Comments about Tomato Towers, Set of 2:
I really like the fact that there are no sharp parts in the design to scratch me as I harvest my crop and how sturdy these towers are.
I would like to see a larger variety in height and the distance of each support arm on the units to use with other plants that I would like to grow vertically (melons, beans, cukes, etc . . .)
I do not like the idea of add-on heights because they usually have parts that scratch my arm when I try to pick my crop. I believe that this one piece design of support made especially for beans, cukes and melons would be great.

Comments about Tomato Towers, Set of 2:
The Tomato Tower has been the answer to flimsy cages that mangle and crush under my tomato plants. They are sturdy, fold easy for storage, and are tall enough to allow your plants to thrive. You should fully install the bottom cage in the ground before inserting the top. Otherwise when you push the tower down, the top has a tendency to pop out of place, especially during installation. I do plan to buy more for next season.

Comments about Tomato Towers, Set of 2:
In my 50+ years of Gardening, I have used every imaginable product and method to cage tomatoes. These rugged towers are by far the best product of its kind I have ever found. Each year, I find myself buying another set or two. The towers can handle even the tallest tomato plants, with the largest fruits. Once in place, you simply continue to feed the branches of the plants through the opening in the towers. There is no need to tie the plants. I recommend placing the towers over the plants as soon as possible after planting. I usually use a small green plant stake in the beginning to give the plant support until it reaches the tower. I find it most effective to have the tower in place in the beginning for ease of installation.

I used my tomato towers for hierloom Rutgers tomato plants, which seem to grow taller than most tomato plants and need the added support the towers provide. I reordered in July, four more sets of towers. It's too late to use them on tomatoes in my area, but eggplants and peppers are just beginning to branch out. The two halves separated make an adequate support for either. I couldn't be more pleased with the results I'm getting from this product.

Comments about Tomato Towers, Set of 2:
I had been searching for decent tomato cages for a while before buying these. I initially bought two cages and then purchased more after seeing the heavy-duty construction. PROS: The cages are two-piece and fold flat for storage. The grids are large enough to reach through to pick larger tomatoes. CONS: The cages are a bit pricey. Also, when trying to push the legs into the ground, the cage can come apart at the corners. You must work around the cage pushing each leg into the ground a little bit at a time while attempting to keep the cage somewhat level. Using this method minimizes the cage coming apart.

The tomato towers do what they are advertised to do, (which is rare these days), I have used the traditional cheap tiered tomato cages and once the plant is heavy with fruit I have wrestled with my tomato plants to get them upright again.
With these tomato towers, they are heavy duty, they don't bend when you push them into the ground, you can pick your tomatoes through the cage comfortably. I liked them so much I ordered 2 more this year and they are affordable, especially in these tough times.

Comments about Tomato Towers, Set of 2:
I use the towers to support tomato plants. I have used round cages and even made my own, but these are still the best. We have heavy soil so they can be hard to set into the ground so it is sometimes helpful to have two people helping push the opposite ends into the ground. I usually have to add extra supports due to Nebraska winds. I find that the towers store easily taking up very little space. All in all, I will continue to use these and purchase more even though I feel that they are a little costly.

The towers are nice. Assembly is easy and straight forward, all you have to do is unfold them. I had the weld on 2 seperate cross bars near the bottom break when pushing them in the ground. The ground wasn't that hard, recently turned sandy type soil. That disappointed me for the price they charged. The towers are tall and should do well to support even the largest of plants. It's nice that they fold flat for winter storage. They are better than the round cages by far.

I am using these for squash plants, I think they will be strong enough for the weight of the squash.I will probably buy more for my tomato plants next season. They slide together so they are pretty tall for tomato cages which is great,and they are certainly stronger than the flimsy things you get at the Home stores. The only problem is that one of mine was stuck in the fold position and we had trouble getting it opened up. Be careful as I pinched my finger, use a screwdriver if needed. The other 3 parts I didn't have any problems opening up.

Comments about Tomato Towers, Set of 2:
Great cages for tomatoes. They are very study and hold steady during high winds. Our tomatoes are already above the top, but we don't like to let them get much taller that 6ft anyway. The only downside would be that it needs to be a little bit wider. At 14 inches square, some of the bushier varieties will need to be squeezed in or the branches may break as they hang over the wire.
Overall, the best tomato cage we have every owned. Easy to store, easy to put in place and it works very well.

Comments about Tomato Towers, Set of 2:
I wanted something sturdy as well as protecting my plants. Just purchased them, so don't have any negatives about their use at this time. Hope to also use them for climbers (flowers).

Comments about Tomato Towers, Set of 2:
Once I was able to unpack them out of the box they seem fine. Out of the box they were very hard to unfold. Someone needs to look at how these are packed in the boxes. Wish I would have bought these last year instead of wasting my money on the tomato ladders which proved worthless and now taking up valuable space in my shed.
