Apollo Plastics L2X4-MOCHA 2 by 4 Mount Deck & Fence Railing Planter, 12-Inch by 30-Inch Rectangular, Mocha

This product worked perfectly on my apartment balcony. I ordered 3 of teh 2x4 Terracotta railing planters. They arrived super fast via FedEx (who I'm not impressed with as a shipping company... they just threw the box on my front stoop, rang the doorbell once, and walked off). When I opened the box, two of the three planters were perfect. One of the three, however, did have a sizable crack in it with a chunk missing out. I contacted the seller who didn't even have me trouble with shipping the broken one back and immediately shipped me out a replacement. Thier customer service was extremely nice and very quick. The product itself works perfectly, held to the balcony rail by weight, I have 9 flower plants each in two of them and 9 pepper plants in the third so they are good size. This is the first season I've used them but so far they are holding up to sun and storms quite well. Mine only had a small, easily removed label on them so I didn't have any issues removing it. Many of my neighbors have asked me about the planters. They look very nice, they're good sturdy planters, and the seller has amazing customer service. I could not be happier! Definitely recommend the product and seller!

The planters are perfect for quickly putting out flower pots on the porch! It beats what we did last year in having to tighten bolts, which didn't hold the entire season. I took the advice of someone who posted that removing the stickers should be done like ripping off a bandaid. Pull it fast, even though it goes against what you would think, and nearly all of it comes off. The small portions were easy to remove for a clean finish. Also, since our railings measure 2.5 inches, I went to a craft store and bought half-inch thick Styrofoam and put a strip on each side of the railing cavity. The fit is snug and works like a champ!! Great product!!

I bought 6 of these planters and got the free 2 day shipping thru my Amazon Prime membership. Very well packed. I like the planters and they are indeed big!My complaints are:If the manufacturer is going to stick a HUGE sticker on the side of them they should make it be an easy peel off sticker! Not only were the stickers hard to remove but the adhesive was visible all over the side once I did manage to get the sticker off and the planter surface mars easily. I for the most part have over hanging plants that are now grown in so much that you can't even see the planters beneath them so I can live with it. But for other upright plants it does distract from the planter to have sticky residue or scratches from simply trying to remove the sticker visible.

I purchased these planters on the basis of the other ratings. These planters do not fit my deck and unless you measure precisely, do not take a chance. There is no margin of error. The quality is good and does have drainage holes. I will be returning these.

The planters were really nice, larger than I anticipated. The only drawback is that there are drainage holes on both sides of the planter on the bottom, so when watered will drip on my deck which is covered in an astroturf type carpet. I am not going to be able to hang it on the deck, so I still don't know where I'm going to use them!

Very disappointed as these items arrived scuffed with black marks! They look like they were not treated well at the warehouse! Difficult to ship back because of the size!

For 20 years, five planters were hung on the outside of our second-story wooden deck railing, adding considerable weight and stress which was poorly supported. Now we have six of the larger, well-supported Apollo planters resting directly above the deck rail. The saddle-bag design virtually eliminates stress to the deck rail; they're more visible and attractive from inside the house and outside; the clean white color is compatible with our brilliant white deck railing paint; in our case, the saddle-bag form on the bottom holds the rail more securely than I expected, but it also provides a small gap above the rail which permits air to circulate between the planter and the rail, adding life to our deck paint; and finally, we no longer have to fight the rusty metal hangers that we used to have. There are no metal parts to rust on this planter. TIP: Three small drain holes are provided on each "side" of the planter for a total of six. We squeezed a small amount of hot-glue into the three inside holes; now the planter drains to the outside of the deck only--cleaner, no deck staining, and more than adequate drainage.

I am very pleased with the railing planters. They fit nicely over my porch railings and I do not need to worry about them getting knocked off by either humans or their counterparts. Squirrels and cats have been known to knock pots off railings in the past. I like the durability and color and the drainage works fine. I can grow a lot of veggies (lettuce, radishes, squash-I support the fruit w/pantyhose) in the planters that I cannot grow in the ground because of the black walnut trees that border my yard.
