I have ordered these pots 3 times--Love them and can't have too many!
I just ordered my 3rd set of GardenBasics pots--the first set in March 2019 (still working great), the second for my daughter and son-in-law, and the third a month or so ago. They are durable and re-usable. My first set purchased in March 2019 is on its third planting.My 2019 herbs stayed alive and healthy from March until well into the fall. I used them again last year with the same great result. The first two years, I planted Bonnie Bell herbs from Lowes, and true to the instructions had to water them from the top for a while until the roots took hold. The plants looked a little sickly at first, but once the roots started growing into the water, they thrived and kept on producing. I started seeing a few gnats around the young plants, so added a 1/4" layer of vermiculite on top of the soil to discourage gnats from nesting in the soil--seemed to do the trick so I made it a part of my permanent plan.For this last set in January 2021, I decided to try planting seeds directly into the pots and am having great results. First I tried mixing the coconut coir with potting soil, but the best results so far are using the coconut coir soil by itself, spraying frequently and liberally with Miracle Gro water (1/2 tsp to a gallon of water), and keeping the pot covered with Press and Seal plastic wrap with little holes punched in it until the seeds are well sprouted. After well-sprouted I'll again add a layer of vermiculite.These are dressy-looking pots that look good both in my breakfast room (for very cold or hot days) or out on the patio (for most days). Illustrated instructions were great. Thanks!

Definitely worth the buy!
I really love these pots! They are just as described, came with everything you need n easy directions to follow. I added 2 cups of warm water to one of the round discs in a bag that was provided n watched it turn to beautiful soft looking dirt. Very easy to plant any of your pants in. Other reviewers said the pot was rather more on the small side but I disagree. The description clearly states it's 7 inches on the outside, but a lil smaller on the inside due to it been a lot in a pot. Perfect size for for my Rattle Snake plant n my Red Prayer plant. I'm thinking the 3rd pot will be for either one of my Dwarf Jade's or my Spider plant, haven't decided just yet...There was no foul odor to the pots as I have experienced with other companies. They were packed very well, nothing was broken n they came right on time. I definitely plan on buying more pots threw this company n highly recommend to everyone!

It works!!
I was going on a 9-day trip and didn’t want to lose my plants to lack of water, so I ordered these They arrived 3 days before the trip. I repotted the plants and watered them as directed. The morning I left, I max filled them and hoped for the best. I came home to healthy plants, including one that drinks like a fish!!! The pots are attractive, too. So what’s not to love? Well, these pots are not easy to fill. The drainage holes are too small. To fill the pot from empty takes forever. I’m thinking I will have to see what full looks like inside the outer pot and remove the inner pot and just fill the inside pot. Not as convenient, but clearly I can make this work with fewer waterings.

Vibrant and Durable Self Watering Pots
We have been on the look for self-watering pots for some of our plants that need watering more often, especially as we live in an extremely hot location. We've been extremely happy with the sturdiness of these pots and how the functionality works on the self watering. Also, I adore the bright colors that match perfectly for our lanai.Another thing to note, is they did great on their overall directions provided in the box and the instructional video. Their customer service was impeccable, as I reached out to them one one topic. It's great when companies like this make it so easy. I would highly recommend this product and brand.

Great pots
I was a bit hesitant at first to get plastic pots, but so glad I chose these. We have an underutilized garden window in the kitchen. The main reason it is not used as it should be is I am short and have trouble reaching the pots to water, even with a long nosed watering can. Enter these pots! I put them on large coasters (8 inch) and easily slid them back into the window. I can easily see when to add water without moving anything and reach the spot to pour in water with a long nosed can. Voila! No more climbing on anything to water my plants. I put plants with roots ready to go so didn't actually top water first as instructed. Not sure if that was an error or not (I've refilled only once, soon after putting in soil) so maybe follow the directions, unlike me!

Needs a small fix
They look and work fine, once you fix them. The slot of the water to go down is SO SMALL, you have to pour super slow or water will over spill. I drilled a couple holes in the plastic to rectify this and it's fine now. Other brands i have that are similar have a grate rather than a slit for filling.Also took a star away because it took about a month to arrive after prime day.

Easy to put together and works great
Nice pots - look nice, easy to clean. I used these pots for container flowers. Water level indicator insert was easy to put together. Water level indicator is accurate and I can see it easily. Kept the flowers ‘watered’ during extreme heat wave while also being an accurate indicator of when to add water.After a very heavy rainfall I did have to tip out extra water but I had to do that for the other pots too.The largest is a good medium pot size for around a 6 pak of flowers. I wish they made bigger pots too.
