Comments about 20-Year Teak Planters:
Love it! It is on my deck and my herbs are growing beautifully. The only problem is that the bottom is not totally closed in the corners so soil leaks out. I solved the problem easily by putting stones in the corners.

Comments about 20-Year Teak Planters:
My wife is an obsessive gardener; buying something for her is a little intimidating, but this little guy did the trick. It's smaller than I thought it was, but that's on me. She loves it, and we think its modern look & feel on the patio couples nicely w/the older, more classic look of everything else out there.

Comments about 20-Year Teak Planters:
It is way overpriced for what it is. The self watering part is so flimsy that it doesn't fit properly. I question, if the wood is really teak.It certainly doesn't look like the picture.

Comments about 20-Year Teak Planters:
We are using the planters on our deck overlooking the lake. We purchased 4 boxes and are thrilled with the way they look and the capacity of the water reservoir. The teak wood appears to be very good quality so we are hopeful that the planters will stand up to the durability claims made in catalog. We did make adjustments to the directions after assembling the first box--i.e. do not remove the plastic securing the slats as instructed in step one & we did glue the corner end caps to secure them and prevent exposure of sharp corners.
Pros
- Attractive Design
- Holding Capacity
Cons
- Difficult To Assemble
Best Uses
- Outdoor Plants
Comments about 20-Year Teak Planters:
The instructions for assembly of the water gauge were incorrect. Once in, the gauge was not working, and I am stuck with fillingthe reservoir until it overflows.
Otherwise the planter is very beautiful and my herbs are very happy.
Pros
- Attractive Design
- Looks great on the deck
Cons
- Had to make adjustments

Comments about 20-Year Teak Planters:
Have 4 different vegie plants in the trough planter. The water reservoir wouldn't hold water at first due to it being ill-fitting. We had to find a way to make it a little wider so that it would fit more securely in it's holder. After using a couple of screws it works well and the plants are growing very nicely.

Comments about 20-Year Teak Planters:
These are very nice planters that assembled easily and look very nice. They were a tad expensive for what you get.
