I purchased these planters to replace old plastic wicker ones that had fallen apart due to sun rot. They are tall and very sturdy, and should last for many years. There is a plastic "shelf" about 10" down from the top, so you don't have to fill up the entire base with rock or dirt. My only minor complaint is they did not come with instructions on how to use the various watering techniques available. The bottoms come sealed with no drain holes so you can use these indoors. I am using them outdoors, so I drilled drainage holes at the 4 dimples on the bottom which marked the locations to drill. These planters can also be "self-watering," by drilling holes in other locations (but again, no instructions were included).

Great looking planters. The design is well thought out with a drainage system near the top therefore the soil doesn’t take up the entire area. Great price. Sam’s marketing team did a great job of making sure the planters were available when they received a plethora of plant options. So I grabbed the planter and spent some time trying them out with the actual planter. Ended up purchasing two of these planters along with my favorite plants (while doing that you can google the plants to see if they’re good for your particular zone/area, pet/human toxicity etc). Definitely the best value for the most impact. And the plants are still alive after a month so that’s something!

These planters look nice. That’s about it. I have them on my front porch. Full sun. Two problems. The sun is fading the black. Second problem, they are supposed to be self watering. My plants aren’t getting enough water on top. My plants keep dying. I have to keep remembering to water them.

I love my new tall planters. I planted coleus in them & they are beautiful 😍

Beware if you’re not 100% sure about these tall plant planters, because you’re stuck with them! Rather they are Damaged, have missing parts no refund or return. I just received these last week! The plugs are missing on the gray ones! So, I was going to return, exchange or get a refund! I was told by AI assistant they were not eligible for return replacement or refund no matter what was wrong with them. Nowhere, that I could find online did it said they were not eligible for refund or return? Is this SC new return policy? I’m gonna try to take him to the club and get a second opinion is this is not right!

I planted my hibiscus in this self watering planter. The only downfall is there were no instructions. I had to go on UTube to find instructions .

The only reason I didn't give this 5 stars is because Sam's Club lowered the price by $10 not even a week after I bought the planter. The planter itself is great!

Sturdy planter, however it is not self watering without drilling holes and purchasing string to run through it to make it self watering . Had to google to see how to make self watering

I love this piece. Its very affordable.. easy to move around..looks great by my front door. Im very happy with it as well as a great price at 29.99

Love the quality and value of this planter. The design is great. Used at the base of steps at entrance of home and it looks fantastic!
