      A great turtle

      The turtle moves from porch to lawn to garden easily. It is sturdy enough for adults to sit on and kids to play on.

      I was so looking forward to adding this piece to my garden. He is so good looking and gets lots of attention but after 2 months, almost all of the paint is gone off of his back. Returning it for a refund - not worth the $$.

      Comments about Plowhearth Turtle Bench:

      I put this on my back deck and I love it. I get many comments on how different it is. In my view it could be a little bit taller - maybe a couple of inches. Other than that I LOVE it

        I use this whimsical turtle as gardent art as well as a place to put objects I use for the outside. He sits next to my grill and attractively holds my beverage of choice as I grill.

        The turtle bench looks good. It is not as tall as I had imagined. The edges of the turtle shell have already been bent by my grandchildren while getting on and off. Attractive addition to my patio.

          Comments about Plowhearth Turtle Bench:

          The color is very beautiful-- like burnished, weathered copper. Not too shiny, not too dull. He is still living in the house, as we hate to put him out in the Northwest weather. A covered area would be best for such a nice "stool."

          It arrived undamaged, but just barely. The huge box was starting to fall apart, and his tail was sticking out. We lucked out there.

                  As I like a variety of garden sculptures around our home,I placed this turtle under an evergreen tree (lower branches removed) in our extensive landscaping (approx. 6000 sq.ft.; no grass, as we live in the middle of ten acres of woods). The bronze color is another hue to add along with our concrete figures and rust colored garden sculptures.

                  Because we have an average of 56" of snow (last year brought 86+" of snow) in the winter, decided I would put it in the garage until spring.

                    Have our buddy in front of the waterfall in our front yard. Very cute. We sealed him before putting him out on the advice of other customers notes. So far so good, he is in the sun and water everyday.

                        The turtle was to go on the deck. However after a month or so rain water got under the turtle's body. Whatever is inside the turtle rusts. I had rusty water stains on my deck. I didn't want to return it because it is really a cute addition to my back yard. He now sits in a mulched area on the side of a paver patio that sits around the deck.

                          I fell in love with this turtle in your catelog. It is perfect on my porch. Since it was going to be out in the elements I sprayed it with a clear protective seal just in case. I also bought the bear which is kept inside. A perfect addition to my decor!

                            Everyone compliments my turtle. I have it outside my back slider door on a covered bluestone terrace. Kids sit on it. I use it to place my morning coffee mug on it when I actually do relax. it's really cute and strong too. Not heavy so it's easy to move around. I'm very pleased w it. Worth the money too.

                            I sent this to my sister for her 50th wedding celebration. I live in Arkansas and when I moved here she took over caring for my two turtles who I had for 30 years and she loves them. They are the hit of the neighborhood so this piece was perfect. She put it outside for the celebration as we had a hawaiian theme but plans to put it in her livingroom from now on as she says it is too beautiful to be outside and she wants to look at it every day.

                              He looks great on my patio, however, he fills with rain water down the back of his neck. We may have to drill a hole in his underbelly to let the water out. When we turn him on his nose to let the water drain, it is rusty. Otherwise, he is perfect!

                                      I have been collecting turtles for about seven years. This has got to be one of the most awesome turtles I have. It looks great out in my yard with all the other turtles.

                                        I have it in my patio. I didn't put it in the sun due to the reviews, but all my friends are threatening to steal it. My husband thinks he can coat it so protect it from the elements. I just love it!!!!

                                          It's not often that I spluge on frivolous items, however, I am so glad I bought this turtle. He puts a smile on your face, and is the perfect little table on our dock. I just love him...sometimes we all need to treat ourselves.

                                            I love the turtle. It has it's own personality. I use it as a foot rest/end table poolside. Due to a knick on the turtle, during shipping, I have to protect it from the rain so that it doesn't rust. My turtle is a great conversation piece and children want to ride it.

                                              [...]We intended to use him on our patio as a table/footrest, but he ended up in our front garden/porch area. Everyone who visits asks about the turtle, pets it, and wants to know where we got it. It is the kids favorite thing to sit on and they all wave good-bye to it as they leave. We love our turtle -- he has become our favorite garden accent!

                                                I put it in the family room waiting for the snow to melt- it makes such a great coffee table, foot stool it may never make it onto the deck.

                                                    I love my turtle. He has a place of honor right next to my front door. It is just a wonderful piece of whimsy. He brings a smile to my face every time I walk up to my front door.

                                                    It is already loosing its finish and starting to rust. It is cute but surely not worth the money.

                                                          I was so looking forward to adding this piece to my garden. He is so good looking and gets lots of attention but after 2 months, almost all of the paint is gone off of his back. Returning it for a refund - not worth the $$.
