Comments about Terrazza Trough Extension Kits:
I use these planter boxes on the edge of my driveway next to my wrap around porch. They went together easily and I've had many positive comments from friends and family. I plan to buy additional units next year to add more plants to my back deck.
Comments about Terrazza Trough Extension Kits:
The extension kit grew my Terezza planter to the size I needed. It was difficult to assemble however.
Comments about Terrazza Trough Extension Kits:
very happy overall -- one section not working though and don't know how to fix it because once soil & plants are in place, how do you fix a problem w/ the tube w/o major disruption to the system? generally happy w/ the product, however.

Comments about Terrazza Trough Extension Kits:
Overall quite easy to assemble and add to the trough planter. Two downsides for me though were the fact that a number of pieces arrived broken (although did not affect final assembly), and you don't get the option of the ball finials... they only send the pointed finials.

Comments about Terrazza Trough Extension Kits:
I started my first vegetable garden on my new deck using this extension with the trough model. I've been very happy with the results. One side does drain, but I left out a little square portion while assembling so that may be my own fault. I love the convenience of the self-watering feature. The only thing I would tell new gardeners is that if you're growing plants that don't have very deep roots, you can use a shorter container and then not spend so much in soil. I also found this extension to be a cost effective method of essentially doubling the planting space of the trough model.
Comments about Terrazza Trough Extension Kits:
I've grouped one planter and two extensions together, and I think once it is assembled it will function well and be very attractive on our deck. Not all of the parts fit easily together, particularly in the extensions, so I've been struggling for hours to construct it. One tab was not molded properly so I had to modify it with a saw. It looks like I may have to omit some parts just to finish it. I notice that to get his published the editors have a right to modify the review so I hope it is printed as written.
Comments about Terrazza Trough Extension Kits:
So far the planters are great. They were pretty easy to assemble. I was missing only one part but it was not critical to the functioning of the planter. I'm wondering how they will hold up to being outside year round in a full sun location. I have other planters by the same manufacturer and they've done great. Hopefully these will too.
Comments about Terrazza Trough Extension Kits:
The floats in the water wells are poorly designed. I also am not sure how the plants get to the water when the trough is 18" deep and a 6" herb has been planted, or the plant doesn't rot if continually wet. So far I have had no problems, but I do water when we have a deficit of rain.

Comments about Terrazza Trough Extension Kits:
I used these planters as a border for the front of our lake cottage. They work great since we cannot be there every day to water. The reservoirs work great. The only thing I worry about is the coming winter if they will freeze and crack. Since I have one planter and three extensions it will be impossible to move them indoors.

Comments about Terrazza Trough Extension Kits:
I used one extension kit with two trough planters, added trellis for privacy and now have a living wall on my front deck which is beautiful... one small problem with assembly [...]. Planning on buying additional units as needed.
Comments about Terrazza Trough Extension Kits:
I put together one main box and two extensions, almost 10feet long and place it by outside of sunroom; simply beautiful with clean line.It was very easy to put together.[...]
Comments about Terrazza Trough Extension Kits:
I am using this on a south face patio that does get shade by mid-afternoon. Plants are growing well because the soil remains moist without constant attention.
Comments about Terrazza Trough Extension Kits:
While they certainly work as described, the planters look just as nice individually as they do joined by these extension kits.
Comments about Terrazza Trough Extension Kits:
The extension kit was easy to put together. The 800 number helped instruct how to plant and we did order spoil to fill from Gardner's. Exceeds our expectations.
