Comments about Self-Watering Rolling Planters, 17":
I use it for tomato plants on my deck. It gets hot on the deck so I thought the self-watering feature would be helpful ... It is helpful with an easy to fill and read level indicator right on top. Looks great as well, but very disappointed a wheel broke off immediately after planting without added weight of water :(. If the rolling feature is not important to you I think it's OK. Didn't return.

Poor quality. Wheel broke off the first time I tried to move the planter on cement. Would never roll on grass. Suggest you pass on this item.

I have my planters outside and have found that the only problem is over watering if we get a strong rain. Fortunately with the wheels it easy to move undercover. My plants are doing great with the consistent watering instead of intermittent.

Instructions are hidden under difficult to remove grate. I had no idea they were there therefore,following a long search for the direction, the very heavy thorn plant was put in without the water feature set up.
It is not acceptable to send an item without visable instructions!!

I am completely satisfied with the product except the wheel base. It is not sturdy plastic and one false move and it breaks. They need to be made of metal.

Comments about Self-Watering Rolling Planters, 17":
I love this -- made it possible for me to have some fresh herbs the first year in my new house, when I had not yet had a chance to dig garden beds, or even decide WHERE to dig garden beds! My only complaint is that one of the plastic pegs that attaches the casters to the planter snapped fairly early on ... so mobility is no longer a plus. :-(
