10 Frame Complete BeeHives

I ordered this hive to get ready to split my other two hives. The quality is amazing, tight joints with no excessive wax. Went together easy with no need to hit with hammer. My other two hoover hives had so much wax in joints i had to cut it away snd hammer them in so hard. Will definitely but bee castle again!!!!

The BeeCastle 10 Frame Langstroth Bee Hive has been a fantastic addition to my beekeeping setup! The 100% beeswax coating is a standout feature, providing a natural and attractive environment for my bees. The construction is solid and durable, ensuring the hive will withstand the elements for years to come. The included beehive frames are well-made and fit perfectly, making assembly straightforward and hassle-free. My bees have taken to the hive quickly, and it's clear they are thriving in this high-quality setup. Plus, the price was right, offering exceptional value for such a premium product. I highly recommend the BeeCastle Langstroth Bee Hive to any beekeeper looking for a reliable and efficient hive solution!

I'm a first year beekeeper and bought two of these hive kits to start...I'm a little over a month into having bees in the hives and so far these are working great. The woodenware seems quite nicely made and is cedar, which you'd pay a premium for elsewhere. Everything fit together well. I disagree with other reviews saying that the wax coating on the foundation was light. The wax on the Beecastle foundation was actually heavier than the wax on some Premier foundation I got -- I did go ahead and roll some extra on but I'm not sure it was strictly necessary. I guess the only thing I would like as an upgrade to this kit would be screened bottom boards for varroa IPM/monitoring, but most other kits also come with solid bottom boards. Overall, I'm extremely happy with these hives and will probably buy more -- it's hard to beat the price for what you get.

I’m very happy with this BeeCastle 10 Frame Langstroth Bee Hive. The wood pieces fit together well, and assembly was straightforward with basic tools. It feels sturdy and well designed once put together. I also liked that it uses the standard 10-frame Langstroth size, which makes it easy to find extra parts and accessories. The frames and foundations included were a nice bonus and saved me time getting started. Overall, this hive offers great value for the price and is an excellent choice for both beginners and experienced beekeepers. Highly recommended!

I purchase two different kits of this style from two different vendors for the purpose to compare them each other. The hive and components look to be pretty solid. Plenty of wax on the boxes and parts. The inter cover was not notched for a top entrance so I will have to notch that myself. The joints are solid and the assembly was very easy and the wax made the seams seal up very well. The one draw back I found for both the kits was the shipping boxes. The carboard box was barely strong enough to hold all the components in the box. The shipping box should be a heavy box because the shippers are not gentle with these boxes and they had wholes punched into them. They might want to consider strapping the boxes also because when I open the box it just fell apart. I ended up with missing parts and having one of the med boxes being broken. Which they promptly replaced by their customer service reps.

Fantastic product. We originally purchased one that was more expensive, but came to us with the wood worked and split. It was horrible. We bought the BeeCastle beehive, and the workmanship is fantastic It was rated #1 on Amazon. We should’ve bought this one to begin with. It’s well made and easy to put together. The difference is night and day. If you want a well made product then the BeeCastle is the one. Also, their customer service was awesome. We had one small minor issue, but they took care of us. You will not regret purchasing this item.

This hive is really well made. The quality of the wood and the finish with beeswax was exceptional. All parts were included and I’m now ready to start the split when the weather improves. I used wood glue along with the nails to secure the frames, but that is my personal preference. Just to expand on the quality a bit, the dovetail joints for the hive boxes were fantastic, and the screws really provided an exceptionally secure connection. The inclusion of the mouse guard and the queen excluder makes this hive an all inclusive solution.

Easy to assemble and seems like very good quality. The bottom board was cracked due to the carrier being rough with the box. However, I reached out to the company and they were very helpful and sent me a replacement promptly. Very impressive and will continue supporting. Can’t wait to get my hives going!
