With winter behind us, we’re gearing up for gardening season. Planter boxes and raised beds are some of the easiest ways to spruce up a porch, decorate a patio, or add color to a big deck.

We have our eye on the Three Posts Barros Cedar Planter Box from Wayfair, which is a stylish and functional addition to just about any outdoor space. It’s tough to say what’s more appealing: that it assembles in mere minutes, according to shoppers, or that it’s more than 30% off ahead of planting season.

It took customers less than 10 minutes to build by screwing together each of the four sides and inserting the floor panels. The planter is 40 inches long x 12 inches wide, which is a perfect size for easy planting, watering, and weeding. At 12 inches high, it has plenty of depth for roots to spread and plants to thrive, with drainage holes to prevent overwatering and root rot. It’s become gardeners' go-to for growing spring flowers, vegetables, herbs, and ornamental hedges.

The style is classic yet rustic, with smooth planks, a rich stain, decorative moldings along the rim, and baseboards along the bottom. It features solid cedar with naturally occurring oils that make it resistant to insects and water penetration, protecting it from warping and rot. ”It was very simple to put together,” according to one reviewer who said it looks like they spent twice as much on it. To increase their longevity, one shopper suggests treating the box with a water sealer.

Over 2,600 people were impressed enough with the durable planter box to leave it a five-star rating. Customers have found loads of areas to place it, such as by outdoor fireplaces, on apartment balconies, on pool decks, lending privacy to hot tubs, and providing a hiding spot for packages and deliveries left on porches. Many shoppers even added DIY elements, such as staining it, incorporating trellises for climbing vines, and casters for easy moving. One person shared that it’s “been in heavy rain, wind, and snow without being damaged.”

With an outdoor planter, you’ll be ready to start growing when it’s finally warm enough. Snag the Barros Cedar Planter Box while it’s 34% off, and keep scrolling for other shopper-loved planters also on sale at Wayfair.
