1 Deep & 1 Medium Beehive

very thankful for Galena Farms for helping me get the two missing pieces shipped to me very quickly that was probably just an accident and not put in the packaging but they were very helpful with support and speedy shipping time! the hives went together perfectly once i figured out how to assemble them! my bees come next month so perfect timing for me to set them up outside! its very sturdy product Im so very happy with this product since i have bought other types that just the wood split apart, but this product is so nice and perfectly constructed, they fit just right! Thank you once again Galena Farms for this wonderful product!

I’m giving 3 for now. Could go up or down depending on if I receive the missing pieces. The seller did respond quickly to the initial contact. I just haven’t heard anything in 3 days if they have sent the missing items or not, and have yet to receive items. Outside of that, the product is great. Bees seem to be just fine with the boxes. Everything is easy to put together. Update: Spoke with the seller immediately after this review. They had in fact already sent everything to their warehouse and they promptly took care of everything! The package came in while I was out of town. This seller has gone above and beyond to correct this minor mistake. Upon open the package, they sent a complete super box with hardware. Just a wonderful experience all the way around. Wish all experiences were like this one! Will DEFINITELY, do business with this company again! Thank you!!

Really enjoyed building this hive. It was my first time building a hive but the instructions were very clear. It looks really great. Pro tips: 1) buy a heat gun for $15 and use it to melt the bees wax at the box joint ends, then cover with a thin towel and use a rubber mallet to seat the pieces. 2) pre drill the holes for the nails. I didn’t get any splits 3) Bee (LOL) careful when installing the screws during the brood box and honey super construction. I used a cordless impact gun and split one of the pieces a little. If you do this, melt some beeswax with the heat gun and press it into the crack. I’ll buy another one of these hives for sure!

Just Beautiful! Got this for my mother, it's so nice, great quality!

I purchased 1 assembled and 1 unassembled hive. I love the quality of Hoover Hives and love the wax dipped coating. Hives were securely packaged for shipping. The assembled hive was super easy to pull out of the box and set up for use. The unassembled hive was super easy to assemble but the supplied nails to split some of the wood. If I purchase another, I would again prefer to spend the extra money to purchase the assembled hive so I don't split the wood. Overall Hoover Hives are an excellent quality, great craftsmanship and very sturdy!

I really like this bee hive, really would like an assembled one but it wasn't to bad to put together! Thanks!

The hive was a little hard to get the dove tails together because of all the wax but I appreciated the fact it was so well waxed it is nice that the holes are pre drilled for the boxes, frames went together easily. Screw and nails included. Good wax coat on frame boards overall good looking hive Looks sturdy and well built I think it's a great hive for the money and love the fact it's american made 10 out of 10 will be buying again

Very good
