I really like the design of the bed it's very convienient. The sprinkler does very well, and the design is very space saving. I'd say that this bed would be a great purchase for someone wanting to try out strawberries, but if you like it, you may want to expand your garden later on.  -  Tuesday, May 08, 2007 I'm pleased! Reviewed By: Kacy Stephenson (Martinsville, IN) I've always wanted a pyramid bed to grow strawberries, as the wandering nature of the plants seem naturally well suited to this type of structure. My neighbors down the road have a strawberry pyramid bed, and it looks sensational. I was pleasantly surprised to find this product on the Gurney's website. I'm not the greatest with constructional projects, and I was grateful with the simplicity of this pyramid. The key is to have plenty of planting soil available. If you bank the soil against the frame of the pyramid, it will hold it's shape without problems. I love the pyramid's watering system, too.  -  Friday, May 25, 2007 Better idea Reviewed By: Emma (Charleston, SC) As others said, this is pretty flimsy. Still, it's a great kit. We actually reinforced the walls with brick landscaping edging (to make it look prettier) and its REALLY sturdy now. You could probably do away with the whole kit all together, though. Just make a big circle out of bricks, edgers, or retaining wall block. Fill it. Make another smaller circle on top, etc. It's the same idea, but will match you landscaping decor better than aluminum.  -  Monday, June 04, 2007 pyramids are great Reviewed By: Madrone (Shelton, Washington) Always wanted one of these. I just set up the first ring, filled it with soil, stood in the middle and used a hoe to move the soil towards the ring. Rounded up really easily. My soils are really shallow, so I am going to use one pyramid for carrots.  -  Thursday, July 05, 2007 Great product Reviewed By: Mark Tibbetts (Searsmont, Maine) Great strawberry bed. Easy to set up and wintered well, lots of strawberries, with the cost of strawberries this item has paid for itself many times over.
