Veradek Corten Steel Series Pedestal Planter - Tall Corten Steel Planter for Outdoor Porch/Patio | Naturally Rusting Steel for All-Weather Use | Modern Rustic Décor for Tall Plants, Trees, Flowers

I purchased these many years ago and I love them so much. There is a nice shelf on the inside so when you fill with filler or dirt, you don’t have to fill the entire container, just the top 1/4. They have patina over time beautifully. Very rustic which is what I wanted.

I bought three of these planters in different sizes for our desert backyard. They were extremely easy to put together. The solution they suggest takes FOREVER to rust them, so we went to youtube and found a video of a different method that worked wonders. You can easily search for the solution on there. Once rusted they really made our backyard look like a magazine. They have held up well in the sun and heat. They are heavy and sturdy. They do soak up heat so I keep aloes and plants that can tolerate the heat in them.

Beautiful product…a bit hard to assemble, but we did. And we had to build a second one. We sprayed them to rust sooner. Very cool process. The height and width were perfect

I am deeply disappointed in Amazon and Veradek for all the trouble I have been through. I had purchased several planters that cost $2285.23. Unfortunately, the planters did not arrive as they looked in the pictures on the listing, so I had to return the planters back to Veradek. The planters were returned and signed for on August 30, 2024, at Veradek. After a short time, I followed up with Amazon and Veradek about my refund. Veradek responded, "Please reach out to buyer support. We are so sorry; unfortunately, this is a very rare occurrence. We do not have a way to fix this and have reached out to amazon daily for help but there is no solution yet. Please let us know what they say! Thanks so much."When I reach out to Amazon the cusotmer service rep assures me they going to solve this issue and they are filing an A-Z Claim, but the next time I reach out to Amazon, they don't have a record of a claim being filed.I have repeatedly jumped through every hoop, returned the items, followed up with Veradek and Amazon, and filed A-Z Claims at least three times. Every time I messaged, everyone thanks me for my patience. What did I get for my patience? Nothing! Amazon informed me that the time has passed to file a claim, and they can do nothing, and Veradek says they can't do anything either. Leaving me without the planters I paid for or my money that was to be refunded. Amazon and Veradek don't care about the customers because they got $2285.23 and the planters back that they can sell for the same or more money. The most disheartening part of this experience is the feeling of being ignored, which has left me feeling undervalued as a customer. Am I surprised by any of this? Not really.Here is an update to the saga...After three months of repeated follow-ups with Amazon and Veradek, I finally got my refund. Veradek was always responsive, but so was Amazon. I am just happy to have this matter resolved and my money back.

I did have to take a few deep breaths trying to thread those wing nuts, not going to lie. But the final results are worth it. These are going to be so cool when they patina to their final stage.The pieces matched great, the small weld spots (that one review spoke of) will most likely disappear when they rust. I’m excited to fill them with plants. I went and sprayed them with the hose to get the process started. I will be looking into ways to speed up the process, I’ve heard vinegar in a spray bottle can help.UPDATE: I mixed Salt, Vinegar, and Hydrogen Peroxide in a spray bottle and sprayed them until they were drenched. I came back from running errands a few hours later and they were beautifully partina’d. They are under cover on my front porch so they weren’t going to have a chance to transform on their own.I love them. They reinforce the rusted tin skirting on my house. Coming together!!

Well I have purchased several of this style planter and these are by far the sturdiest I have purchased. We are using these in a desert landscaping but would be attractive in any scenario.My biggest problem with them is the delivery service that deliver them (not Amazon), they either deliver to the wrong house, or they deliver them in front of my screen door. When delivered in front of the door, I need to go out the back door then go to the front so I can move them. Hmmm.

The media could not be loaded. So I thought they came rusted and assembled . Was super bummed but I really wanted them so I put them together and they are stunning . I’d buy over and over . Worth it .

These turned out SO WELL!! My husband sprayed & brushed 5 applications of hydrogen peroxide, salt & white vinegar...I ❤️! Turned an urn on end, bowling ball...pathway art!! TY. franki
