BeeCastle Heavy Wax Coated Langstroth Unassembled Deep/Brood Box with Frames and Beeswax Coated Foundation Sheet (8 Frame)

These are great bee boxes. Super easy to assemble & already beeswax coated. We buy these over & over. Best part is how quick they come when you realize you need them. 🍯🐝

These BeeCastle deep brood boxes are excellent quality. Cedar boxes can be hard to find now, and these are sturdy, well-made, heavily wax coated, and good looking once assembled. The frames and beeswax-coated foundation are a nice value, and everything felt solid enough for real hive use. I was very happy with the quality and appearance. Beautiful boxes, practical setup, and exactly what I needed for my bees.

It was easy to put together. Bees love it so much that I had some hitchhikers trying to get in while building it 🐝

This is the best! It is CEDAR, coated in a thin layer of wax. Most important, it is accurately cut so it assembles like a dream, fitting snuggly and perfectly. The instructions are clear and easy to follow. Thank you BeeCastle!!

The box went together well with great dovetail joints as well. I’m very happy with this brood box. I will be ordering more from Bee Castle.

A solid product for beekeepers new and old, both with ease of assembly and cost, but a word of warning; the frames are surprisingly delicate and the wood of both the frames and the box itself can split easily. Also, the surface is a tad difficult to coat due to the hydrophobic beeswax coating already present, so if you plan on applying any kind of paint, stains, or varnish, stretch out the application process over the span of several days and be sure to leave ample time for it to dry. I applied a weather-proofing stain to my boxes over the course of a week and it took roughly 4 days to finally finish drying, even though it would ordinarily dry in 2. That said, the added effort is worth it to give your hive that personal touch.

This boxes are amazing, I'll give them 10 out of 5 LOL. It was so easy to assemble and I love the fact that everything is wax coded. When I was assembling them even the bees were flying around it ready for their new home, somehow the was coat was attracting them. It came with everything (nails and screws), very sturdy and the wood didn't crack.

The quality and ease of assembly was superb/excellent in fact. a good purchase.

Waxed boards are very nice. Great natural look with no need to paint:) mine fit together so good, I could have gotten away without screwing together. Wonderful fit. At around $70 to Canada was also a good price. Update June 2023 - would not buy waxed boxes again. They only look great when new. After out in the sun the finish wears off. Then you have a box that looks bad and you can't paint because there is wax residue on it. I will only buy boxes I can paint from now on.

Although it came in so many pieces, the assembly was easy and quick.

Très bien,

Nice kit fits together beautifully the only thing I didn't like is the plastic foundation had an unpleasant sent not like bees wax. I used it for a brood box the bee's don't seem to mind. All in all a decent starter box but I wouldn't recommend using it for a honey super.

Perfect size. Easy to instal. I highly recommande !! Ive personnaly brought 6 of them
