Honey Keeper Beehive 10 Frame Kit Super Box and 10 Deep Frames with Foundations for Langstroth Beekeeping

When I first opened the box, I thought "Holy crap, what did I get myself into!!!" In spite of looking like a jenga game, it is very simple to put together. I didn't use glue, 'cause here in east Texas, it melts in the summer and makes a heck of a nasty mess. I haven't used the nails yet, I'll finish that tomorrow. I will drill pilot holes, so I don't split the wood. I was extremely skeptical about buying this online. I must say I am very pleased with it!! Absolutely excellent quality, very well made. I wish I'd gotten my entire hive from them, I would've stained it instead of painting, this box is very nice looking! I will buy from these folks again when it's time to add another box (or, over the grumblings of my not-so-enthusiastic husband, another hive....). If you want a quality product at a decent price, this is it!!

Surprisingly really good quality for a product from China. The joints fit perfectly, no issues whatsoever. I've bought them twice now, for a total of seven of these kits. The only downside is that the frames are not pre-waxed. I usually add more wax anyways, so this was not much of an issue for me. Make sure to pre-drill holes to avoid splitting. I had one box split a little, but there was a large knot there and I should have drilled the hole deeper.

I like the way the panels are jointed together, I believe they'll last a long time. All the cuts and finish are great. Smells like cedar. The price was good. It came with all the hardware and with instructions for beginners. All and all, I'm well pleased. Not sure how the tariffs will change the price since this is a product of a certain country.

These are nice sturdy, easy to assemble, boxes and frames w/foundations. Pre-drill your holes to start. Direct nailing will cause splitting.
