Boxes seem to be high quality and went together well. The boxes seem a little large as they will almost fit a 9th frame (not quite). I hope this does not become a problem with the bees building too much extra comb. Time will tell. Otherwise, very pleased with these hives.

So easy to use and beginner friendly!
Preston B.
The only reason I didn't give this beautiful hive 5 stars is that the frames were terrible. Fully 20-25% of them had huge knot holes and splits in them. The hive on the other hand is a work of art. Very well crafted and my bees love it.
Elsa N.
Nice boxes, strong frames. Bees were happy to move in!
Ken E.
Just put this together the other day for another swarm I caught but these guys decided to move on in. All my hives are BEE Castle and they work great Just placed an order for 3 more hives
William S.
Bees have moved in and I am looking forward to them paying rent(honey). They also declined photos or videos due to privacy concerns.
Heather C.
Very nice! All the pieces fit together perfectly!
Eric G.
A great kit. Easy to put together and looking forward to a productive season!
Matthew B.
Our bee castles were easy to assemble and we are impressed so far. love that the boxes are covered in beeswax and the smell is wonderful! We got the 8 frame hoping the bees would fare better in a smaller space due to our long snowy winters. I gave 4 stars because we haven't used the hives as our new bees will arrive in May.
Greg S.
Good quality boxes. Easy to put together. Very affordable. Will buy from again
Roger G.
The order arrived on time and without damage. Everything was in the box including instructions to assemble. I am pleased with the quality of it.
Sebastian S.
Great product. Waxed very well
William J.
I'm still putting them together have had no problems no damage although 1 box was. But I purchased these because of the wedge top bar frame as I am foundationless, there is no wedge just standard plastic frames not used for foundationless without reworking.
Stacey S.
We love the bee castle, easy to assemble. The joints fit perfectly and square. We have shopped around for hives these are the most economical and great quality. We now have three 10 frame hives and two 8 frame hives we will continue to order from bee castle!
wayne s.
Great hives they go together so easily and hold up great. Bought a few last year and they still look great.
Sebastian S.
Great quality.
Della S.
Came on time. Great product. Have bought multiple hives. Love the wax coating. Good product for the price.
Bill M.
everything looks great very easy to assemble.
my entrance reducer is broken i will have to make a new one.
Eric G.
Easy to put together and is pre-waxed. Looking forward to starting my new hive.
Linda D.
Overall I'm pleased with the hive box. It was quite easy to put together. There were a couple small broken pieces on frames but were easy enough to glue and nail in place so it wasn't worth trying to replace. It's a BEAUTIFUL hive, although I'm disappointed that within 2 weeks of being outdoors, the edges have lost a fair amount of wax, so I'm going to have to coat the edges soon to preserve the wood. Still, for the price, I'm happy with it and will likely buy another one.
Shirlee E.
Bee Hive is nice and sturdy.
Placing it outdoors today.
Bees coming next month
Lynda A.
The hives are beautiful and easy to put together. As a first time beekeeper I was happy to see that the foundation for the deep hive boxes are black, which will make it easier to see eggs in the cells. I can’t wait yo get my nucs at the end of the month and start this adventure
mary B.
This was my second order. Somethings were a little off. ¼ of the screws were too short, metal cover on my waxed hive was dented in 2 areas (shipping box wasn't dented at all), and the entrance reducer was splitting apart just touching it, but they are sending items to replace them.
Lily B.
Beautiful hive! Smells SO good!!!!! Very high quality! Great wax coat. Easy to put together. I pick my bees up next week! Thank you for making my jump into beekeeping affordable and pretty!!!!!
Della S.
Easy to purchase great prices. Was here in a few days . Easy to build. Very good construction
