    • 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

    • 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

    • I think mine was a return. Missing and broken pieces were disappointi
Color: Burly Wood
Review Image by Miranda Miranda
Update: Seller contacted me and resolved the issue. 5 star customer service!! This was a great bargain, and I really needed new hive boxes and frames as my apiary grew by 4 colonies in a week. Unfortunately, I think I must have gotten a return or something. The first clue was the condition of the box, and upon opening it, I found it had no telescoping or inner cover, three of the deep frame pieces were broken, and although two packs of foundation were wrapped up, the third was loose and all over. Id return it, but the box was taped up all over the place and the corner was crushed pretty badly when it arrived, so I have nothing to package it back up in!!! The positives: I don’t mind that the frames were unwaxed, as that’s easy enough to do myself. The boxes came together well and the wood is nice and takes paint easily. The craftsmanship is good, save for the broken frame sides, and it’s as easy to put together as any other hive I’ve assembled. Now I have to buy more frames and lids, so I’m not thrilled about that. ... show more

Acceptable craftsmanship, great price. I was skeptical to purchase at first but was pleasantly surprised with the quality of the material. The craftsmanship is decent, could be better. There is quite a bit of chipping on the wood layers which of course is not ideal, and where the wood has been laminated you can feel the separation if you were to run your nail over it. However, most of it is cosmetic and as long as you paint it with a couple of good coats, it shouldn't present any issues later on. For the price, I think this was a steal. One thing I wish they had was the option to wax-coat the frames, and if you were wondering about the title of my review, that is what I was referring to. The frames come unwaxed and it is bare plastic. Which means, bees are less likely to accept it and are more likely to avoid it and build around. So, you will need a couple of pounds of wax and a was melter or an old pot to melt it and brush over the foundations a few coats, in order for the bees to be more likely to accept it. Overall, out of 10, I'd give this purchase an overall score of 7.5. Now, the rest will be determined by how long it lasts out in the world. Hopefully, I will not be disappointed. But so far it seems like a solid choice. ... show more

    • Nice for the price
Color: Burly Wood
Was honestly surprised how nice the carpentry was. The foundations need to be coated with bees wax before you introduce bees to the hive though, learned that the hard way. They are drawing comb nicely now though
