Comments about Paper Pot Maker:
Although I personally needed to read the instructions on how to use this product it is actually very simple to use and takes up almost no space. It could really have saved me a lot of money on peat pots if I had actually taken the time to use it this year, but I was too lazy to spend an extra few hours collecting paper and I got frustrated with flimsy little paper pots blowing around. Hopefully next year.

Comments about Paper Pot Maker:
This product works as described. The only con is that prolonged watering from the bottom gets the newspaper wet, and wet newspaper gets flimsy. Even so, these pots really work, and It's really easy to use.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Comments about Paper Pot Maker:
When I purchased this product, the description said this product made 3" pots. 3" is the HEIGHT, not the DIAMETER. The actual pot is barely over 1" in diameter and is hardly big enough for any useful purpose, in my book. But, if tiny paper pots are what you're looking for, this is a great product. It seems that they have also corrected the description on the size, as well.

Comments about Paper Pot Maker:
I bought this for my husband for a Christmas present. He is very thrilled with it and made several pots right away. He found it easy to use and is excited about starting his seedlings in the pots. It's exactly what he wanted. I like how durable and well made it is.
