This is my 3rd Yorkshire box and they never disappoint. They are always beautiful and classy and I get lots of compliments. My first one had landscaping beneath so it didn’t have the corbels. My newest two I got the corbels and it just is beautiful. The corbels can be little pricey on a large box but they just add so much. If you are thinking of buying this box…., just do it, you won’t regret it.

    Great moisture control
    It was very easy to install and has been working well. The reservoir helps to maintain the proper amount of moisture.

    Rusted brackets
    We're generally very happy with these boxes after two years, but when I took them down to clean we discovered that every single bracket is badly rusting. The coating did not hold up at all.

      I love it!
      This is the largest window box I was able to find! Although my window is larger than the window box it still looks great and has added curb appeal to my house. I was able to install it on my own, but it was a bit tricky. My stud finder wasn't able to locate the studs from the exterior so, I went inside and located each stud and marked them using painters tape on the window glass. Make sure you follow the instructions! spread the glue and attach each panel one by one as the glue dries up super fast. overall I am super happy and will be buying additional window boxes soon!

        Very large and sturdy. We bought the extra brackets that permitted us to install it over the railing on the front porch. It gives the front porch a nice clean look. It comes in four pieces so you will have to put it together with the glue they provide.

        It is a Christmas gift. I opened the box, but did not fully unwrap, unpackage. I looked good. Hopefully it is all there. I have a few of these myself and they are an excellent product.

        Easy to assemble. I used small bricks to hold joined parts instead of clamps.

        Great product. Sturdy and stylish. Packaging was excellent with all components in tact. Assembly was relatively easy. Installing it to the house was also quite easy with brackets and hardware included. Glue product (used to assemble the components was very difficult to squeeze from the tube. Looks great!

        I was excited when I received the window boxes. When I took out the first three panels that were beautiful with a white satin finish, however the two side panels were a high gloss and did not match the front panel. The quality looked really nice. However the panels visibly did not match. I called Mayne customer service and they were helpful, however they stated that there could be a slight change of color and sheen due to lighting. There is a very noticeable difference of the panels not due to lighting. I am sorry to say I will be returning these as the company stated that replacement panels would be the same finish of what I have already received.

        Thanks for reaching out to us Mary, we always appreciate the feedback. The end caps of this window box collection are molded differently than the panels for structural reasons but we are always looking for a long term solution to soften the surface to match the sheen a bit better. These window boxes can be customized and painted to match any decor.

          I had similar planters on a home and after 20 years they still looked great. I found some at twice the price elsewhere but bought these knowing I could return them if I wasn’t happy. I can’t see any difference with these and am very happy! Just gorgeous and adds so much charm to my house!! Make sure you spend time installing the backboard to hang them so they are level. We attached a board and painted it black so it wouldn’t show.

          Fabulous window box, reviews priceless
          Love this box, only person in the neighborhood with one! Its in direct sunlight on 2nd floor most of the day in hot Virginia Beach... even w/trough needs warering for full 4-5 minutes by hose from driveway. Squirrels trying to nest but red pepper flakes in dirt helped! Husband in construction... review tips from others were gold! Clamps were KEY, speed with glue KEY. Husband created own wedge/notched blocking

            Do not buy Mayne window boxes. The self watering Yorkshire I bought leak like a sieve and they said it was because of improper assembly. Having followed the directions on their own video: Being generous with the glue, using clamps, tapping the caps with a rubber mallet, I have come to the conclusion that their glue sets up too fast (if you can manage to even get it out of the tube!) to form a seamless seal that will hold water. Another thing I want potential buyers to know is I also bought the decorative corbels only to find out they will not be flush if you have siding so a side view shows an ugly gap. The Mayne customer service people I dealt with were very nice and apologetic so I give 1 star.

              These window boxes are beautiful! Assembly was relatively easy, but mounting the brackets took time as they had to be perfect. We used a brace for strength on the wall as we have the 6ft Long window boxes. The boxes are a good depth, the plants do not dry out quickly.

              asy to assemble though I did take the added step of applying waterproof silicone caulking to the interior joints. This was a precaution against excessive water coming into contact with my siding. The item adds a definite ‘pop’ to my home’s exterior. Thinking of adding two more to some other windows

              Well made, looks nice on a large window, needs 2 strong people to pick it up and hold it in place while attaching to vinyl siding, lots of holes in the bottom for drainage, good style. I bought three for the front of my house, and have received many compliments. Highly recommend.

              We purchased the window box for my sister after she lost her husband to cancer. We thought it would be nice to have a place to plant flowers in his memory and enjoy them all summer long for many years to come. Beautiful product, easy construction and relatively simple installation. She loves it!
