End of summer deal on planter gardeners say 'looks good' and is a 'great size'

August is a dry and hot month, but there are still crops gardeners can sow. For example, salad leaves and spinach are classed as short-term harvests and are ideal for the summer.

Looking ahead to the autumn and winter, gardeners can buy planters to grow veggies such as cabbage, kale, leeks and parsnips. Yimbly, a marketplace owned by this title's parent company, Reach Plc, has the Outsunny Raised Garden Bed With Legs And Shelf at 10% off.

Normally 58.99, it's on offer for 53.10 with the discount code SUMMER10. Comparatively, Amazon has it on sale for the RRP of 58.99.

The Outsunny Raised Garden Bed With Legs And Shelf is made of solid wood and is described as 'stable and durable'. Ideal for people who cannot bend down for long periods, it is 76cm tall.

The lower layer features a storage shelf, allowing the owner to load buckets, tools, or other items. It's a light green colour according to the spec.

For other options, Robert Dyas has this Charles Taylor Extra Large Planter Trough for 54.99. This one is not raised so sits on the ground directly, and is made from Scandinavian Redwood, designed to withstand the British climate.

Elsewhere, Argos has 20 off this Lattice Wooden Garden Planter, now 28, was 48. It is a timber planter box with a tall trellis wall for a flowering vine.

The Outsunny Raised Garden Bed With Legs And Shelf doesn't have any reviews on Yimbly but shoppers can find customer comments on Amazon. One shopper had some words of advice about keeping the planter in good condition, saying: "Excellent product. This is the second one of these we've purchased. The first was last spring, and has lasted very well.

"Easy to put together. We did put a wood preservative on it, then a coloured shed paint. Also lined the inside before putting in the compost. Using them for some veg plants, and looks good in the garden."

Someone else remarked: "A nice solid box, easy to put together and a great size for placing in my small greenhouse. Should be able to grow plenty of lettuce, strawberries and chilli peppers and it should hold a substantial amount of soil. The slat-style shelf on the bottom will be very convenient for storage, as well. Good drainage and strong when built."

One gardener was slightly underwhelmed with the Outsunny Raised Garden Bed With Legs And Shelf. They noted: "Not bad for the price but very small and I would not order a second one."

However, someone else remarked: "Very easy to assemble and well made. Just the right height for working on planting strawberry plants."

Another shopper commented: "Very good size with plenty of room to grow your plants. Would recommend."

A final reviewer penned: "Great value. I bought this for my son who wanted to grow herbs in. He was really pleased with it. Easy to assemble and quite deep so herbs are growing well."
