Description
The Zest 2m Veg Bed is the larger version within the range. It's ideal for growing your own fruit and vegetables, such as carrots and potatoes. This manger style veg bed can hold up to a maximum of 375 litres* of compost.
For optimum growing, we recommend you position the veg bed on a firm and level surface. Always allow sufficient drainage to ensure the veg bed does not become waterlogged or excessively heavy during wet or colder periods of the year.
To protect the veg bed during the winter, either empty and store inside or use a breathable cover to protect against mould. If there is any significant snowfall, always ensure you remove from the top of your veg bed as it can damage the structure and shorten its lifespan.

This Veg bed is made of good quality wood. Delivered on time. It is a fantastic size and I’m really happy with it. I’ve already started growing some vegetables in it.

Very good value for money. Self assembly fairly easy but assembled legs incorrectly at first - a cautionary note would have help. Top Sideboards are floppy so I incorporated a cross beam to stabilise them.

Very pleased with the product, easy enough to Assemble, I would consider myself to have limited DIY skills, the assembly instructions are vague, but it's easy enough to work out with all the parts in front of you

Very sturdy piece of kit. Absolutely love it and have recommended to all my friends. Just the job when you don’t have garden space to grow your own salad & veg.

We found this quite difficult to construct. The instructions are a bit vague and the wood does not come with pre-drilled pilot holes to assist with assembly. It took three of us to set it up; it's definitely not a one person job. The item itself looks fine once built. Don't underestimate the amount of soil you need to fill it. It takes a lot.

The beds are fine but it's a good job I had two able younger people, used to flat packs to build them, the directions I'm told were not very good. You lose a star because of that.

Mostly pre-drilled, but assembly starting point was difficult to ascertain. A guide batten would have taken the guess-work out of knowing how far up or down the end boards to place the base plank. The instruction picture also shows the base plank upside down! Surely the chamfers should face downwards to prevent the base plank from being forced out of the bottom. Other than that we are extremely happy with this product and bought two.

Wednesday 19th April 2017 Verified Purchase
Robust large trough, easily assembled apart from legs which seemed to be capable of joining in several ways, only one of which was correct. Trial and error resolved this. Also had to make the overlapping leg joints slightly wider with a saw and chisel. It took 8 grow-bags to fill it. Now filled with a wide variety of salad plants. Bring on the sun.
