Review: Solid Hive - These are well-made hives and have a nice dove-tail system in the corners of the boxes that fit nicely together. Solid boxes and the walls are thick, sturdy & wax covered as it should be. They are just as easy to put together as others that I have bought which is a bit time consuming, but not at all difficult. The only disappointing thing (which is my fault that I didn't read the detail), is that the bottom on this is solid. I wanted one that had the screen at the bottom above the solid bottom. You can get it, but it is sold separately with this company which it was included with others that I've bought. All in all, seems to be a solid hive.
Review: Very good quality - great customer service! - These beehives are very sturdy. It comes in a box disassembled but it's not hard to put it together...just takes a bit of time since you have to assemble all the frames as well as the main structure. Comes with a plastic queen excluder, a bottom brood box, 2 honey boxes, a roof, and an entrance limiter. Highly coated in wax so you don't have to paint or stain it. Looks really good. I built 2 of these. It did take a good few hours but that's because you have to assemble each frame with glue and nails but everything fits perfectly once you get it assembled. Update: I bought a third one of these and parts of it split while I was assembling it. Didn't have this issue with the first two. I contacted the seller and they sent replacements (and more!) The very next day without any fuss or hassle at all! I'll definitely be buying my bee supplies from these guys exclusively from now on! Edit on 4-17-22: ok.... after buying more from a different company, all I'm gonna say is that I wish I had just gone ahead and paid the extra bit of money and got the hives from these guys.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great looking bee hive!!!!
*by L***N on March 25, 2023*

I received this shipment about 2 day's early. The packaging was well done and contents organized making examination simple and assembly quick. Of course I added glue to every joint which was not really necessary. The wax buildup in the dovetails made it hard to join the pieces but I used my heat gun for just a few seconds and they slid together in an almost prefect corner. I did end up splitting one piece at the top edge as I put in the screw. I avoided that on all the others by hand tightening the screw for the final few turns. I did notice a few nails that were bent but there were extra so no problem. Love the quality and look of these hives. I would advise anyone to purchase these products. Top quality and they look fantastic.
