FAQs
Does this require any tools to assemble?

Can I leave this outside year-round?

What type of soil should I use?
A high-quality potting mix designed for raised beds or container gardening is recommended for best results.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Assembly is straightforward due to the tool-free design; ensure all panels are locked into the stainless steel fittings securely before adding soil. It is highly recommended to place the VegTub on a solid, level surface like concrete or pavers to maintain structural integrity.
For care, occasionally wipe down the exterior with a soft, damp cloth to remove debris. While the powder coating is weather-resistant, checking the hardware periodically for tightness will ensure long-term stability. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive scrubbing pads, as these can scratch the protective finish.
