Classic Home and Garden Spartan Urn Planter - Timeless Plant Urn for Floral Displays - Durable Indoor & Outdoor Plastic Garden Planters (14”, Oil Rubbed Bronze)

This is the first urn type outdoor pot I ever purchased. I bought it because of the price...it was better than all the others and offered good features. It has spoiled me for all the rest. I have the Cast Iron color (4) going on 4 years...I've used them as fountains (with the plug in and a solar pump) as well as planters. Right now, they are welcoming you as you enter or leave our formal garden, on both sides of an arbor, holding a boxwood type plant. It is easy to assemble, sturdy, has a drain hole with removable plug. It looks pretty realistic. At first, i purchased the Cast iron, which is a dark gray. I then purchased the Ivory ash, a taupe-y light tan, I came back to get the Bronze but it seems to be unavailable right now. I hope it comes back in stock soon...these really are a wonderful addition to my garden, both the formal and informal areas.

It is of good quality material, with drainage hole and plug, I really appreciate the thoughtfulness of the design.

I love these planters. They look like cement, and the details are so beautiful!

Pluses: Yes, lightweight.Sturdy, Too new to say how it will hold up. Doesn't seem flimsy though.Appearance: not bad.Size? Somehow a little smaller than I expected, but a very usable and practical size nonetheless.Value: very good. I prefer real stone (who doesn't?) but budget and ability to move a pot around and change it up easily counts for a lot. These in real stone or concrete would have set me back quite a lot more (3x? 4x?) and be extremely heavy.My two tiny picky little gripes are about the rim. First thing: It's thin and not rolled over at the topso it gives away that it is plastic right away. Second is that the top of the thin rim is also not finished like the pot. Maybe it's only the Ivory Ash color, but due to the base color the pot has a kind of greenish-cream lip. I'm seriously considering painting it to get it to be less noticeable. I know that once the plants get bigger and grow over the edge it will not show but it's quite distracting right now.

Like item .. Looks like stone until you get quite close. Is difficult to remove rubber plug in urns used outside to drain water. I use them for faux flowers due to heavy shade in summer. Have two outside and. Two inside.

These urns are even better than their picture. I used two with a scrap of granite to make a garden bench.

Very nice. Read the description to see the size.

These are good looking and very sturdy. I planted faux evergreens in them and placed them on the front entry steps. One of them blew off the steps onto hard brick. This happened three different timesThe soil spilled out but the pot was surprisingly not damaged. Lesson learned they are now secured to the steps.
