Review on Wax Coated Langstroth Medium/Super Box With Frames And Foundation: Ideal For Beekeeping (8-Frames) by Greg Lockhart

Revainrating 4 out of 5

It's a lot faster than bare unfinished boxes

Let me start by saying before buying this I bought another brand unfinished and built 7 boxes. Those seven boxes took 9 hours, then 3 days of applying finish. This literally took maybe 15 minutes to put together by hand. Joints were like butter. Couple little spots on the wood that weren't very clean and the easy fit did leave some gap but not enough for me to worry about. I did not glue the box because of the beeswax, so hopefully it will hold good. Screw holes were all predrilled and screw head holes recessed already. PROPERLY SIZED HARDWARE. YAY! Makes for a very clean box. My secret for squaring is a 24 inch dewalt clamp. Pulls boxes perfectly square and can set it with a couple screws in the corners then unclamp. If it stands up to time this will be my new go to company.

Pros
  • Nice peace
Cons
  • The frames may not fit tightly enough in the box, causing instability and possible damage to the honeycombs
