So far so good
So I will admit that I purchased a similar one by a different company and received it and CRIED! It wasn’t the the total hive, the broad box wasn’t event going to line up with the sides... id have to cut and wiggle to make it work and have major gaps. So I quickly went online and purchased the hybrid flow hive & got it 4 days later. I was was amazing. All the parts, professional and easy! I am so happy I spent the extra and have this flow hive to get me started with bees.

Beginner
I’m a totally a new Beginner, the hive came quickly, and was very easy to set up. I bought a Nuc with the help of local bee keepers. The hive arrived very good and became so big it actually swarmed! I had an extra brood box on top but they still swarmed. The bees have still not taken to the Flow hive frames yet and stored any honey. Getting concerned on that part right now. We will see!!

First Flow Hive
Very impressed on the ease of assembly (my kids and I assembled in around an hour). I placed a package of bees on May 14 and was impressed at how much progress they made by June 2nd (see photos)

Great suits, criminal packaging.
We were immensely happy with the suits however, very disappointed to see that each component came in an individual single use plastic bag. However much I appreciate the good work that Flow does, it will mean that we won't order from you again unless the packaging and production chain gets thoroughly looked into.

Tracking
Dealing with Flow has been great, only it did take quite a long time for my order to be produced for shipping (understand it may have been built to order). I'd suggest a way customers can track to progress of their order. Otherwise the staff interactions have been fantastic and very helpful. Hopefully Australia Post doesn't take too much long to get my hive to me... I can't wait!! :)

Easy to assemble
Compared to your very first "Founders" Flow Hive these laser cut models fit perfect and slide together easily. The new base with legs is so nice I would like to request 3 for my original hives. I notice they are not for sale separately. Please make them available. Robert Skorr (Skvorecz)

Plastic viewing window did not fit
We have purchased 5 flow hives and have been happy with them. We purchased a single flow hive super to put on some frames from another company. The clear plastic single viewing window on the side, did not fit the inside space for it. We had to sand and whittle the wood so it would fit properly. There is also a gap between the door that comes off to view the flow supers and the wood piece above it. It's a bigger gap than our other Flow Hives. We just thought we should mention it to you. On a brighter note, the bees have really taken to theses flow frames, after having been on for just a couple of days. I did paint them first with melted beeswax and gave them a jar of sugar water to get them started.

Classroom Flow hive
I am very impressed with the flow hives upon first review. I have been a bee keeper for 20 years and am very excited to see how well they work. I have designed an observation hive that sits in the back of my classroom for my agriculture students to view and we have placed 3 flow hive frames inside, which we can access the honey right from the classroom.

Easy to build looks great
I built the box with my kid. It was easy and fun. The split bottom of the board split when I attached it to the stand.

Remarkable
My favorite thing about Flow be hives is that although it may seem easier to beekeep it still keeps you very involved and connected in the whole process. I enjoyed building the hive, painting and staining my bees new home. This is my first time trying the bee keeping scene and thus far I have enjoyed every single second of it. I can’t wait to see the future for me and my 2 boys in beekeeping. I look forward to purchasing at least 4-5 more really soon. THANK YOU, FANTASTIC JOB

Beautiful hive
I ordered the flow hive 2 with the leg leveling kit. Instructions where easy to follow and the predrilled holes made it nice. The leg leveling kit was missing so I had to take pictures of the box and form and email those and then they sent the leg kit. The leg kit came and it was missing the wood bits that go on the side, so I had to take pictures of the box they came in and send it to flow hive. I just received the wood bits today (almost a month after I first received my hive). Honestly I probably wont put them on now since there are now bees in the hive. Otherwise a nice hive.
