Vegepod - Medium Trolley

This is a very well made raised garden bed. I ordered the small size along with the small frame. It is just the right size for growing small vegetables and leafy greens on a porch or patio. The stand is very sturdy and comes with casters. Both items were easy to assemble. I am very satisfied with these items from Vegepod.

Excellent quality and very sturdy! Paint and finish are perfect and very heavy duty wheels!

Perfect Garden bed to keep critters out and keep enclosed veggies

I purchased a small unit from QVC and I was super impressed with the quality of construction. There are online videos that show step by step instructions on how to assemble the raised bed and canopy. So I decided to purchase a medium sized raised bed and leg kit through Amazon. Unit arrived quickly and everything went together easily. My only issue was some important missing parts. The clips that hold the canopy are missing and the zip strips that hold the water misting tube in place are also missing. These are not critical parts but they are important. Without the canopy clips, the canopy gets blown off the garden and without the zip strips the water misting system is not functional.

Yes, it’s worth the money! This review is just over a year after purchasing the vegepod. Here is the setup of mine: we live in Summerlin, NV where temps do get to 110-115 in the summer. The vegepod is sitting in the patio underneath the roof. It gets morning and afternoon light with shade during 12-4pm. The winter here by Red Rock canyon gets chilly in the 20’s with very very very strong winds (50-60 mph gusts). I have bungee cords wrapped around my patio post to the top of the vegepod so it will not fly away.I did get the stand without the wheels (regretting that now) and the winter cover. I see where I could have used the wheels to move it around the patio easily for more or less shade. Now that it’s extremely heavy with 9 big bags of soil, that baby isn’t going anywhere. I did also purchase a regular shade cloth because I couldn’t buy the one that fits the top at that time and I use clothe pins to snap the shade cloth during the 2 hot months here. I also purchased the $50ish 3x3 watering system hose by Garden In Minutes along with $8 timer on my faucet. This system has worked flawlessly. My work has me home every other week and my system can keep growing without me tending to it. It really was worth the investment. The plastic has not broken down at all since buying it. Most plastics do within a few months of exposure to the sun here but I do keep it in half shade most of the time.My husband thought it was ridiculous for the price and did not want it. Despite him, I got it anyways for the purpose of growing greens (spinach in particular since the prices here are California prices for food). I picked New Zealand spinach for this climate and boy was I surprised! I do have other things in it but it’s now a jungle. That’s the only gripe my husband has now which I can handle. I have swiss chard, onions, oregano, and kale along with the spinach. Lettuce was in it but bolts way too soon due to the temps in spring and fall. Carrots do wonderful in it too. I have learned tomatoes grow best here in November, December, and January under the winter cover. My kale isn’t big but produces a lot. I now have a Brussels plant in it that has taken over with the spinach. We will see what it will do.Happy gardening!

I have had the vegepod for 3 years this is my 3rd season getting ready to grow vegetables. The first time my wife bought small vegetable plants to transplant. I purchased the pricy potting mix, mulch ect. You have to start off with the good stuff and keep it going. The plants did very well. Grew pretty fast. The second year I planted seeds. It took longer as they should but the seeds germinated and grew. We had a little storm come through and annihilated two red pepper plants. I planted 3 one survived. I grew squash, egg plant, green peppers, red peppers successfully 2 years in a row in the vegepod. Grew cucumbers the first year.I also purchased a small potable collapsible vegepod. I transplanted one of my squash plants into the collapsible vegepod. I didn't know if it will survive but it did.I know folks may have issue with the price but if it's lasting like it is then it's well worth it. Understand it offers quality material and a watering system with a dome that does a great job protecting the plants, the stand is doing a great job standing up to the weather conditions and it's very sturdy. I live in SC 30 mile from the coast and we get hurricanes and tropical storms. The vegepod, even with the dome, is able to withstand the harsh storms.One piece of advice. If your going to place it in the yard try not to set it up on the grass with out some footing. Pavers is what I recommend to keep the stand from sinking in the ground.

Omg...as a very seasoned construct person this was too much of a pia to put together and the directions (both written and video) were not clear! I am happy I got it done, but there was a lot of unhealthy words spoken thru the process.

I am so happy with this, plants are growing beautifully! I got the large pod and it took a lot of soil (13 bags; 1.5 cubit ft each) and water to fill, but it is all working so well. We left it alone for a week so far with no problem, and So Cal is hot right now. If I get good at this I will be ordering another one! And the customer service from Vegepod is great; a couple of the water mister valves didn't work and they sent the replacements right away. I will say, however, that assembly is challenging if you aren't handy - be patient. Luckily, my husband is handy. I can't speak to maneuverability as ours is stationary (no wheels). A large pod with all of that dirt might stress the legs. Very happy with this product.
