Backyard Discovery 47" Acacia Wood Garden Potting Bench & Serving Bar, Storage Shelf

Super easy to assemble and looks great. Use it for potting and also repurposed it for a trail mix bar for a baby shower.

I really like this potting bench. The leveling legs are a nice touch, and they prevent the wood from direct ground contact. I customized mine by adding some doors to the front.

Beautiful table, well made. It holds everything I need for potting plants and will be a great beverage station this summer! I changed out the medallion for one we have that is special to us, and plan to seal it soon. Even bought a custom cover for it to make sure it has a nice, long life out back.

This potting table turned out both beautiful and sturdy. Getting there was a bit of a process, but it turned out great! The package arrived promptly at my door, all 92 pounds of it! Fortunately I had a hand truck to haul it unto the garage. I am pretty handy with tools, but it took me probably 3-4 hours to assemble it, and when I was done, I realized there were some of the finer points I had assembled incorrectly, but which were not obvious so I didn't bother to correct. That said, the design is useful, the Acacia wood beautiful and the construction sturdy. I definitely would recommend it, as long as you don't mind a somewhat challenging assembly!

Bought this several months ago for my beautiful wife. She loves it! The wood is beautiful and makes a great addition to her BYD Bellerose greenhouse. I gave it 4-stars because the back board (around the top), was cut way too short. I'm surprised at this error as our BYD greenhouse and gazebo went together perfectly!

I love the bench very sturdy. However some of the planks are warped and we couldn't line up the holes so we had to drill our own. 2 planks came split .. did our own repairs … ID numbers were faded and hard to read but logic made up for that. Not all of the parts were oiled. We sealed it ourselves. With 4 costs of stain sealer.

Arrived as promised, assembly instructions are superb and parts marked for identification. A few assembly steps were more time consuming than expected and a second person was needed. But very satisfied with the end product. I can easily say that there is value for money here.

The pros: the sturdiness, the simplicity in design, The cons: the color is very different to the photo. It's much lighter in color and very yellow. I stained it but that did not prove easy as it seems oiled in sections and not in others which made the process more difficult than I had anticipated. Most seriously, the countertop is warping and splitting and water is pooling on the surface. It's not a cheap item so I am disappointed in this item. If I had not stained it I wought have returnft

This is such a nightmare to try to put together. The pieces are warped and nothing matches up. There's a million different pieces and the directions are terrible. There's a copy of a “new set of directions” in the front of the book but it's really all just chaos. We gave up trying after several hours. Entirely too much trouble to try to box up and return.

Difficulties assembling. Screw holes were not drilled correctly. The bench looked nice in the picture, not worth the price once the assembly began. one of the legs didn't go on properly either. Should have been better instructions. needs to be modified to be sturdy too.
