How big was the raised bed?

[bearded bloke]

Raised beds are 1m x 1m x 150mm high treated timber with interlocking corners

^^^ and not that great...I have one.

Has anyone got the cold frame?

I was thinking about getting one but I'm not sure if it is worth it.

I thought about it, SL, on another thread, but was told that they are very light and need to be fixed down. I decided to spend my £25 on polycarb and something knocked up from leftover wood

Bought a 4 tier mini green house from aldi £17.99 not too bad, 9.99 in b&m stores for a slightly smaller ones.
Aldis raised beds both broke when try to slot together. The boards are too thin and when interlocking while applying even slightest pressure the smaller part at the corner snaps.

Would return them if I could.

Would return them if I could.

Aldi are great at returning things like this - do you have the receipt? I swear I took back a mushroom kit that just went mouldy and I didn't have the receipt and they gave me my money back because it was an aldi item! Have you tried? They have a 60 day money back guarantee on anything you buy in store!
Saying that; I'm still not going to chance the mouldy garlic they have it looks and SMELLS like it would never grow! No garlic for me again this year *d'oh!*
