FCMP OutdoorCasablanca Self-Watering Planter (2-Pack) – Set of 2 Large Planters for Porch, Patio, Outdoor/Indoor (MOD-CP3000-BLK-2) Black (24-inch Tall)

These are actually huge. The inserts didn’t go deep enough for my aralia pots, maybe half way down the planter, but they’re still sizable planters. I love that they look classy and I can fill the bottom with rocks or styrofoam to get the height I need for my aralia pot. I also love that they’re big enough for large plants - i might buy more for my star jasmine and fill the whole thing with dirt.So far construction seems sturdy enough to do the job. The walls are thin enough that I can bend them with very slight pressure. So beware that if you plan to have these in some punishing southern sun, they may melt or warp. Mine stand up to California morning sun just fine so far, but we’ll see what happens as the season warms. They don’t feel so thin to me that morning sun will damage them, but I wouldn’t let them sit in all day sunshine.

I love this set of 2 planters, they are a great value for the money and look fantastic at the front door. I have not used the self-watering feature so cannot comment on that. Easy to drill a few drainage holes on the bottom and then simply place potted plants inside. Comes with an adjustable insert to accommodate small or large pots. They are well constructed and seem as if they will hold up well. They do seem a bit lightweight so I placed 4 bricks inside on the bottom to keep them stabilized in case of high winds. Overall, a great purchase!

Very nice, and I’m glad that I purchased two of them. I ejected the option to remove the insert and it’s working out great for my Gulf Stream bamboos in them. I just wish that they offered them in brown/copper color

Bought them for a wedding, they were sturdy, attractive, and a perfect size. Can't go wrong with these for the price.

They are beautiful! I would definitely purchase again. Price point was good also!

Used to put a decorative plant at my door and at my garage. They are really sturdy but I needed sand to weigh it down. If used for real plants, this would be perfect because they soil would hold it down.! I would take a picture but it is late, I just got off work and I don’t feel like going downstairs! ☺️

Received quickly. Well-packaged. Looks great on my front porch. Two feet tall, lightweight and comes with a middle section to hold a pot. I did add pebbles to the bottom.

Just beautiful out front. Love how sturdy they are and the insert lets me put different size pots in it. Bought them to use planters for different seasons and they are good and sturdy. Don't hesitate to buy. Fast shipping. Instructions included for self watering.

Nice color, very dark. Inside the self watering feature will keep pots from falling inside. Overall good value for the money.

I love the fact that I can choose different size pot plants to put in, and they look lovely.

Decent quality. Look very nice.

Nice planters for the entrance steps veranda area, love them, great shipping too!
