Great box, problem with frames
Joints fit perfectly, use a square to assemble and it's excellent. There was a bit of extra sawdust on the frames, but bees will pick that stuff off. Plenty of wax on frames too. Great price point, happy with purchase!Update 1 year in: The frames have not been drawn out well at all. It's not the bees, I had some other empty foundation that did fine. Whatever wax they used for the foundation - bees don't like it. I still think the box was built well and fit together nicely, but I'm downgrading to 4 stars. Save yourself some time and use better foundation; your bees will thank you.

Each Box assembles in 5 minutes or less-glue and nails!
My husband has an air gun for the nails, so his took less time, I assume than it would if you were to hammer it in place, but ours was cut to perfection and fit like a glove. Please watch the assembly video in the description prior to complaining that the pieces don't fit. If they didn't fit, and you had to make "alterations" to get it to work, then you weren't doing it correctly. It does require a hammer to fit the 2 pieces together, as shown in the video. My husband dabbed wood glue on, hammered into place and then used the nail gun. Each box took less than 5 minutes-he guessed 2 minutes per box, but I padded it with 5 just for the people who aren't crafty or unsure. The frames we bought separately took longer due to the smaller size.

Poor Quality
My brood box was getting full, and I needed another deep box fairly quick. I ordered this box and found it had many issues:1. The joints do not fit together. The Jig that is being used to build this must be way off. It must be hammered together with hopes it doesn’t crack.2. The boards do not line up at the top and bottom once you get it together. Therefore, a gap is left between boxes. This is really bad. It would take the bees a significant time to seal this up.3. The frame foundations are covered in splintery saw dust, they had the same issues with joints not fitting but not as bad as the deep box. A lot of air compressor time was needed to partially clean the foundations up.Since I needed a box fast, I tried to sand this box down with a belt sander. Then I painted it and put it on my hive. I had to use painters tape as a temporary seal.In summary, this box is no good. It must be replaced, but I can’t replace it until I get another box.I recommend you purchase bee hive products from a reputable company and not this one. They are selling a very low end and almost useless product.

Good quality frames and foundation. A few issues with the deep super.
A nice price, well below market (including shipping) for a deep super and 10 frames with foundation.The pine has some knots, some go all the way through, so compare this to "commercial" grade parts sold by the big name suppliers.The frames fit together and went together well, no issues. Sizing correct according to Langstroth hive standards.I had a few issues with the deep super though. Not sure if this is typical or if it was just mine. Some imprecision in the cut of the finger joints that needed adjustment.I recommend this package as a cost saver for people with some experience, skills and tools to make minor adjustments to the fit of the parts. People who have assembled hives from parts before and/ or with woodworking experience. Just be sure to dry fit and measure things carefully before you open the glue bottle and commit, be ready to use a wood chisel, saw, plane, sandpaper etc to make things fit together correctly. If you have no experience working with wood and no tools to do so, if you're a n00b, I can not recommend it. In that case, spend a few dollars more and buy a kit, or pre-assembled parts from one of the big name national suppliers with better QC.I contacted the seller/ manufacturer, they responded quickly and took steps to correct the issue.

No hardware included nor predrilled holes
Hardware was not included (screws and nails) and there were no predrilled holes for the bee box where other that have ordered did have predrilled holes.
