  • The best bang for the buck!!!!
Color: Burly Wood
I have read all the bad reviews, and I cannot believe people would write a bad review about this bee hive. I have bought 3 of these hives. One thing before buying you better have common sense about building anything out of wood.. The entire build is easy, if you know what you are doing and if you have the correct tools. First thing, I did not use the supplied nails! If you have to use the nail, I suggest NOT to buy this product. If you have to use the nails, maybe getting a nuc of bees is not the right choice for you. Granted, most people do not have an electric or air brad nail gun. If you are looking into raising bees as a hobby or to try to make a living, invest in a brad, or 1/4 18 gauge staple gun. I have built 3 of these kits, the first 2 I used an inch brad nailer. The third one I used a1/4 - 1 1/12 inch staple gun. I am sticking with the 1/4 inch air stapler. Using one of these tools, you better know how they work or you might put a staple through your finger. My last one i used 1 1/2 finishing staples for every part, even the frames. The tools I used were: Hammer, Titebond 3 wood glue, and an air staple gun. If you are building one of these kits, the Glue also works as a lubricant to hammer the dovetail joints together. I love the fact the boxes are made of cedar wood. Cedar can withstand the elements and is long lasting with out rotting. Once painted it should last for years. I defiantly plan buying more of these kits. The price is right and it is a great product. ... show more

  • Good quality on new purchase
Color: 4 Layer
I hate reviews that say '5 Stars, item arrived on time and intact!' because I don't care how it shipped - I want to know if the ITEM is any good. But here I am doing almost just that same thing..haha. In case seller has others for sale, mine is the 4-box hive: 2 deep and 2 medium. I was worried because of some negative reviews and because there also aren't that many reviews for the product. I work in shipping and know how some heavy items are easily damaged. I half expected damage on arrival. Delv'd by FedEx, and they seemed to take care with it. One seam of the shipping box had a split, but shipper had taken care to band and tape well. Nothing was damaged. A lot of reviews for low-price hives mentioned missing pieces. All pieces were included that should have been. I feel quality is great so far. Sure, wood is narrow and can split - it's the nature of wood. There might be types of wood that don't split, but I've worked with a lot of hardwoods that still did when pieces are narrow. I, personally, could not face the thought of hand-nailing 1,000 small nails, so I broke out the wood glue and brad gun...haha I had zero pieces split on me. The bag had plenty of nails, though, so there were probably plenty to secure everything. Seeing the narrow pieces, I'd probably pre-drill holes...another thing I could not face, thus sealing my choice of a brad gun! Can't remember if this item had reviews for no instructions, or for bad instructions, but instructions were included and pretty clear. Pieces went together easily and are square. As with any assembly of this many pieces, some pieces fit more snugly, some more loosely. Light hammer taps took care of the snug fits, wood glue and nails took care of the loose. All pieces fit, and there were no big issues getting any where they were supposed to go. All boxes and parts sit squarely on top of each other. Assembly took probably close to 2-1/2 hours at a lazy pace. Are they interchangeable with boxes from other hives? I don't know as I don't have any other hive boxes to sit them on. Outside measurements of boxes are 16-1/4" x 19-7/8", according to my cheapie tape measure. Big question - will it hold up? I don't know. I plan to coat with 2 light coats of exterior paint and hope for the best. I'd say it's probably the same for any wood going outside, but if I remember a year from now and can find my original review, I will update. Last biggie - will the bees like it? I also don't know because my bees arrive next month. If I imagined myself a bee, I think I'd like it. But who knows. This will be included in my one-year update, assuming I can find the original to update and assuming I don't kill the poor bees. Things I'd love even more: option of a screened bottom board for hotter climates. I can buy separately but would have been easier to just add on to here. Me being lazy and no reflection on this product...haha Also would have loved the foundations coming pre-waxed. Wax options I see here see are not so great as far as reviews, and the process of waxing seems tedious. I'd have paid more for the item if pre-waxed foundations had been an option. But I knew this going into the purchase, so no reflection on the product. I was hugely nervous about buying this given the # of reviews and some of the comments, but I'm so far really happy with the purchase. Hope this review helps someone else looking for an affordable and easy option for a hive kit purchase! ... show more

  • Unpainted Quality Cedar Beehives
Color: 4 Layer
I bought this 4 level hive during a lightning deal at a price significantly lower than competing hives. ($170) The shipping box was too light weight and was busted on each end. Luckily, nothing was damaged and all pieces were still in the box. The cedar wood hive pieces seem very well made with dovetails joints, and the wood looks excellent. (Have not assembled them yet.) These come with nails instead of screws, so no holes are predrilled as with some other brands. I will use screws, so I will have to drill the holes. The pine frame pieces also look very good. All foundations are black plastic and are not wax coated. (Description just says foundations - does not mention wax.) I have found that on other brands that furnish thinly wax coated foundations that I have to wax coat again to get bees to build proper comb, so this is probably not too big a deal to me. I do believe when assembled, these will be quality hive boxes and frames. However, considering the light weight shipping box, no coating on hive pieces (3 other brands that I have purchased are wax coated.), no predrilled screw holes, and no wax coating on the foundations, I would only purchase this brand over other brands if price is lower. They are a good deal at the price I paid. ... show more

  • Great hive and price
Color: Burly Wood
The hive boxes and frames are cut so well that assembly is very easy. They are strong and sturdy boxes. The frame also go together easily, Excellent customer service and response time to questions.

  • Beware of Foundation
Color: 2 Layer
I purchased two of these hives when in a pinch for time, as I had captured more swarms than I had hives to hold them. I cobbled together old equipment and ordered the hives thinking I could assemble them quickly and meet the need. Everything went great until I got to the frames - which came with plastic foundation WITHOUT WAX. I happened to have some leftover wax which I melted and brushed on the foundation, but only enough for one hive. I decided to bite the bullet and order the right kind of foundation which came with wax coating. Apparently the do-it-yourself part of the hive assembly went further than I realized. All in all it took another half day to wax the foundation. UPDATE: I received a response from the company concerning this view, in which they confirm that there is no wax on their foundation. ... show more
