I have 9 of them. They are far inferior to Earthboxes. Just the 2 piece system is inherently leak prone, the plastic gets brittle after a few years, they continuously get holes from the weed whacker, my Earthboxes have no leaks, are older and have no weed whacker holes. I am in the process of replacing them with Earthboxes, a few per year. And they are shallow, and smaller in general. Even that burlap cover system, meh! They only cost about $6 less, what on earth was I thinking?
