Planter pot VidaXL model 860704, white rolled cold‑rolled steel, 40x40x80 cm

VidaXL planter pot model 860704 is a rectangular white plant container made from cold-rolled steel with external dimensions of 40 x 40 x 80 cm. The pot combines a slim, modern profile and a durable metal construction intended for both indoor and outdoor environments. Its clean white finish and tall form factor make it suitable for decorative plants, shrubs or small ornamental trees on terraces, balconies, offices and public areas.

Advantages

The cold-rolled steel construction provides structural rigidity and a consistent surface finish. The tall, narrow shape gives vertical presence while keeping the footprint small, suitable where floor space is limited. The white rolled steel aesthetic delivers a contemporary look that coordinates with different décor styles. The robust build supports heavier planting media and larger root volumes compared with thin plastic alternatives.

Suitable for

• Indoor decorative plants in living rooms, lobbies or offices
• Outdoor use on patios, balconies, terraces and entranceways
• Planting shrubs, dwarf trees or multi-stem ornamental plants
• Commercial spaces such as restaurants, hotels and public areas

When it may not be suitable

This planter is made from cold-rolled steel and may be heavier than plastic or resin pots; it could be impractical to move frequently once filled. If the intended location is exposed to extremely salty or highly corrosive environments without additional protection, bare steel surfaces can eventually show signs of corrosion unless a protective coating or maintenance regime is applied.

Key specifications

• Material: cold-rolled steel
• Finish: white rolled steel surface
• External dimensions (approx.): 40 x 40 x 80 cm (W x D x H)
• Shape: rectangular, tall/narrow profile
• Intended use: indoor and outdoor

How to use

Place the planter on a stable, level surface. For outdoor installations, consider placing protective pads or feet to prevent direct contact with standing water. Before planting, add a layer of coarse drainage material or use internal liners to protect the steel from prolonged moisture contact. Fill with appropriate potting mix for the selected plants and position the plants centrally, leaving sufficient soil depth for root growth. Water and maintain plants according to species-specific requirements.

What to consider before purchase

• Weight when empty and when filled with soil — assess handling and installation needs
• Drainage and moisture management — plan for liners or drainage layers to protect metal
• Location exposure — consider corrosion risk in coastal or chemically aggressive environments
• Compatibility with plant size and root depth — choose plants suited to a tall, narrow container

Usage recommendations

For longer service life outdoors, apply a suitable protective coating to the planter’s base and underside and avoid prolonged contact with standing water. Use a breathable liner or elevated drainage layer to reduce direct soil-to-metal contact. When placing heavy plantings, use lifting assistance or position the planter before filling to avoid manual handling of the full weight.
