If your not experienced with assembly this could be a challenge
I was impressed with how perfectly this fits together. if you can hammer a nail strait this will go over fine. The instructions are very simple possibly overly so for some people. ( the small nails are for the frames ) Over all this hive is great for the money and my bees like it. its made better than my first hive ( it was an assembled kit ), i will be ordering more. takes about 2 hours to build and set up. ... show more

Surprisingly Good Hive!
I didn't expect such good workmanship at such a competitive price point. All parts assembled flawlessly - no sanding or filing needed! No pieces were warped, so clamping was minimal. Will definitely buy again.

Great Box and Great Customer Service!
It is my first Bee box and I was so afraid to order. When it came in, my husband and I took our time, read the instructions and it went together like clock work. The instruction are very basic, so we just read carefully and looked at the instruction carefully before putting it together. We also predrilled the nail holes to avoid splitting of the wood. It is a great box! Just make sure you understand that it is an 8 frame and NOT a 10 frame hive. I was missing one piece and I contacted the seller. They had it in the mail to me within 14 hours of sending them a message. Great Box and Great Service.....what more could you ask for? ... show more

Our first beehive and it aint bad.
Being our first beehive I don't know exactly. what I should, shouldn't have, that is better than the other. However this one is pretty good. It does come with some parts and you're like what are they but with a quick search on the Internet you'll figure it out (rat guard and be escaped). DRILL YOUR HOLES FIRST. They don't say that but do it. We worked as a team he drilled, I hammered. The box just sit on each other and are not stable feeling as a tower but maybe with Bees and honey the weight holds them tight. Just feel like it needs something till then like a groove the box sets in. I don't know I'm new to this. ... show more

Good hive, excellent customer service!
Some of the dovetail joints were not finished well and I really had to hammer a few of the pieces together but it really wasn't a huge deal. It was missing 1 side piece to a deep brood frame and I contacted the seller and they sent one right out without making an issue of it. I really appreciate this as it had been 2 months since I got the hive before I even opened the box to put it together. I did not use the nails they sent. I used wood glue on all joints, then reinforced with 16 gauge finishing nails. No way I was going to hammer all that when I have an air gun. Then I filled all the joints with wood filler and sanded and painted. Lastly, I added some decals I made on my cricut. The hive sits together well without gaps and my new colony of bees seems to be enjoying their new home. Right now only the bottom chamber has frames/bees but I did put the other brood box on top because I am feeding them sugar water in there (which is also why I have the inside top piece in that position you see in the picture). I will definitely buy another hive from this seller, although I will get the 10 frame instead of the 8 frame. Good customer service means a lot to me and they've proven themselves in this area so they've earned my repeat business. ... show more

For a new beekeeper this was a dream.
Getting into Beekeeping, and being into wood working, I wanted to order a hive first so I could see in person how they are built. Once I got it, I assembled and painted it. Like others, the nails they sent went into stock and I used an air stapler and glue to assemble everything. Assembly took maybe 1.5 hours. I have ordered another one and this time, I should be able to do it much faster. The pictures shown are with just the two deep boxes, one for the bees and the other one for the feeders. Once my hive get's established, I will add the frames and then eventually add the shallow. notes for potential buyers. 1. This is an 8 frame hive. It will not stack with 10 frame hives as they are not the same size but that is OK as I think I am just going to do 8 framers anyway due to them being a bit lighter. As note, the frames themselves are interchangeable, just not the boxes. Also, 8 frame langstroths are gaining in popularity for just that reason, they are lighter. 2. If you have an air nailer or preferably stapler, that is the way to go. Trying to nail this thing would make it an all day affair. 3. Materials are pine boards so quality per piece varies but they seem like they will replace bad parts. 4. Assemble and paint your hive well before you get your bees to let the paint and glue dry completely. All in all, I am very happy with it. I will likely make my own hives in the future but if I need one quickly, I would order from them again. ... show more

Nice Sturdy Hive
Very nice Bee Hive Box. It takes a while to assemble because there's so many parts. I was a bit overwhelmed when I opened the box, but once I figured out what pieces went where, I got into a pattern and it went together easily. I wish I had sealed the box with a waterproof sealer, than painting it white. It was a beautiful wood color before painting it. ... show more

Exceptional quality
We ended up doing much of the assembly with a brad nailer. Some of the dovetail joints were very tight. Overall, a good value. Recommended.
