Inexpensive but flimsy
One of the rare CB2 items that I cannot recommend. These planters are flimsy, such that they dent and bend easily. They have no drainage holes, though they can be easily drilled. For about the same price, a much higher quality product can be obtained from Crate & Barrel.

Perfect Planter for the Rooftop Deck
We've been looking for a modern rail planter for the roofdeck and stumbled upon this one. Ordered 3 and then 4 more after getting the first order delivered.
The oscar rectangular rail frame is very strong and sturdy and supports the planter very well (contrary to another review). There's no sagging after a week with a full planter. Great look and design.
Would upload a few pics if I could!

Does not fit over railings/difficult to get set up
We have multiple standard railings on our porches and thought that these planters would work on at least one of them, since the description states that "Flexible hooks adjust to fit most hanging surfaces." However, we cannot seem to find a place for these to hang! We even hammered the white rail frame in an attempt to make it fit, but the hook is so small, the only way it can work is if your railing is really thin. I do like the look of the planters, though, so I might keep them and just have them sit on the ground. If you have a ledge, these would be amazing. I unfortunately do not and might need to return them :(.
