Size looks wrong and the included has 24" boards not 48" boards... I think these are 2'x2'

Still a good price but I doubt you will get 4x4.

Look at the pictures, it's either 2 beds 24x24 or 1 bed 48x48 with a middle post.

Reads 24*24" boards, so sounds like one 4*4 or two 2*2 beds

No issues. Pretty quick and easy to install. The dovetails aren't perfect but the wood is red cedar and pretty soft so you can hammer them in pretty easy.

The hardest part was shoveling soil to fill it... it takes a surprising amount. Hopefully you have a wheelbarrow because I did not

What is the thickness of the wood? Did you treat the wood to help it last longer? We had a termite issue in the neighbourhood decades ago so my options are pretty much man made 'wood' or cedar. I looked into the wood before and cedar is termite resistant and rot resistant. I remember reading that cedar takes a few years to develop it's bug resistant properties and thus one of the reasons why it costs more to buy.

Interesting tread regarding cedar toxicity. https://permies.com/t/63668/cedar-raised-beds . There is talk about tomatos not doing well on cedar beds it seems.

I'd say about 1". I didn't treat it - don't know if it comes already treated...

I planted 2 tomato plants - I'll see how they do. It looks like there are mixed results with red cedar garden beds.

I know you can get 48x48 out of 24” boards and 8 posts. Can someone confirm it is indeed 24” boards?

I can't confirm yet (we'll see if my order gets fulfilled tomorrow for in store pickup). However, the description is pretty clear:
