Bought this for my front porch. I've only had it a month, so don't know everything about it yet. It's easy to assemble, easy to fill the water meter tube, and I love that it's on wheels. I move the planter nearer the house during high winds, and it moves very easily. I think it's a great product and would recommend it to anyone. Great value for the price!

Comments about Self-Watering Rolling Planters, 15":

The problem with these planters is that you have to use a hammer to bang out the plugs at bottom so they can drain - the plugs should be separate units so they can easily be dislodged - instead they are part of the plastic that the planters are made of so hitting them repeatedly and with enough power behind the hammer in fact broke 2 of the 4 plugs in each planter, resulting in a cracked floor of each planter. By this time I had to try taping the broken plastic floor as my hydrangers had been sitting in the pots they came in for more than a week - so I kept the planters instead of returning them. Of course the tape did not work so every time I now water them (the old fashioned way, from the top with a watering can since the self-watering part cannot work with the broken floor) the excess water runs out all over my terrace from the cracked bottom. Please rethink how you have these made! The plugs need to be a separate unit, not part of the plastic mold used to make the planters. The idea of having to bang them out with a hammer does not make a lot of sense!!!

Love how the filler/indicator has been redesigned. It works so much better. Maybe a color other than Terra Cotta would look better but that isn't what I chose this product for. There are very attractive alternatives available that I will use for that purpose.

The plastic wheel broke off the first time that I moved it. I bought two for my back patio, but I will throw them out as JUNK in the Fall. They looked nice & I bought them because they were highly rated.

Comments about Self-Watering Rolling Planters, 15":

These planters are not that good looking. I was expecting better. They seem to be well made though. The one bag of container mix that is provided is not enough to fill planter. The caster wheels are small diameter, but I don't have any problem rolling them around on the paver patio bricks. The best part of these is the self watering feature which has a large reservoir.

Comments about Self-Watering Rolling Planters, 15":

Good for growing small shrubs or large perennials or a nice mix of annuals and perennials. Nothing with too much depth or large root systems with much weight. Casters are the weak spot---very flimsy and easy to break, especially on concrete or stone surfaces outdoors. Would be better with a bit thicker walls, too. Use them gently and don't move them around much after planting and they should make out OK. Clean design as to appearance. READ instructions and inventory the parts before you assemble.

Live in Texas and lost plants to a freeze we rarely get in our area. Next year we can roll the 2 planters in if cold weather is predicted! We can enjoy the self watering feature when we are not home.

I like the ease of moving a large container like that and it looks very attractive.

Comments about Self-Watering Rolling Planters, 15":

The planter was very easy to assemble (with my husband's help) and just the right size for the annuals I want to "spruce up" our front porch. I especially like the idea of wheels -- too much sun or not enough sun. Perfect. I just need the weather to cooperate. We saw snow this morning!! What an April Fool's joke.

Comments about Self-Watering Rolling Planters, 15":

So far these have worked out great. I purchased two and have inserted metal obelisks for climbing beans and cucumbers. Everything looks great so far. [...] I placed them in my driveway in a sunny spot close to a water spigot. I bought a short 25 foot hose to fill the reservoir since carring containers of water is no fun.

Comments about Self-Watering Rolling Planters, 15":

I don't find these flimsy, as some reviewers did. The secret to opening the drain holes without damage is to use multiple LIGHT taps. I used a very light tack hammer and hit each plug 5-15 times. We will use these on our deck, where we have had round Gardener's self-watering pots for a few years. These hold more soil, more water, and the water tube placement is better - takes up less of the available space. The casters are an improvement over placing a heavy pot on a rolling holder - much less prone to tipping over. (We move our plants from sun to shade a lot.)

Great planter. Wheels make it very versatile. We live in Florida and it seems to hold up well in the full sunlight which is a bonus

It would be perfect if it had an insulating layer as I am planting it in perennials and would love to be able to just leave it outside year-round.

I bought a few more because it looks good, wheels and supports a rose plant well. Love that it is self watering which helps me and the plant out, when I get too busy to do watering in my backyard.

Comments about Self-Watering Rolling Planters, 15":

I am not "young" anymore & these rolling planters are perfect as I can roll them all over my patio. It would be impossible to lift them full of annuals.
I have ordered them two years in a row, when I found out how great they were. Last years are in as great shape as this year's new ones.!!!! Still sparkling white! Great product. Joni

This is a good design and it waters well for about 10 days indoors in sun.

Comments about Self-Watering Rolling Planters, 15":

I have only had this planter a month, so cannot comment on durability, so far so good. I found it to be easy to assemble - did not have the problems others did with knocking out the plugs or with the water level indicator. I have planted a tomato in it, it is a good size for one tomato plant and the square, folding, tomato cages just fit. I like that the wheels allows me to rotate or move the plant. Bigger wheels might be nice, but these roll ok even on rough aggregate sidewalk.

Very attractive and I love that the planters have the self watering, my flowers look great in them.

Comments about Self-Watering Rolling Planters, 15":

We bought these planters for the deck at our place on the water. Since we are not there all the time it was hard to keep plants alive. Now they water themselves! Everything is growing great and looks so fresh when we arrive on the weekends.

Comments about Self-Watering Rolling Planters, 15":

I wanted flowers near the house, but there's only concrete where I wanted them. I've tried flower bowls there before, but if I ever forget to water them for a day, they die. The self-watering planter has remedied that. I ordered just one to try it. I plan to order more, and some of your hanging, self-watering baskets for my daughter's birthday. Thank you. Gloria Thomas

holds a large plant and can be wheeled to different locations

Comments about Self-Watering Rolling Planters, 15":

Very nice. I wish the tomato success kit had the same type of fill tube. This tube works much better in comparison. Be careful moving the pot over uneven walkways once it has been filled. The wheel shafts snap.

Comments about Self-Watering Rolling Planters, 15":

Great idea to have bottom up watering planter. We even planted seeds in it and started by watering form the top on the pre soaked dirt we mixed with water when filling the box. Seeds are germinating and looking good. Now we can water using the fill tube.

I purchased 3 of these planters and will definitely be buying more. I planted dwarf blueberry plants in them. I haven't had to worry about over watering or underwatering because of the water gauge. Great idea!! They were very easy to assemble, no problems. Thanks for a wonderful product.

I have a new enlarged patio and these have given me 2 beautiful planters full of breathtaking flowers. I love not worrying about watering too much or too little.

Comments about Self-Watering Rolling Planters, 15":

I purchased two of these planters for my four year old Bird of Paradise plants. The plants are getting big and needed more room to grow and ultimately bloom. The plants needed a better water source than I had been providing for them and the planters needed to be easily moved within my home. These planters work great, look good in my home and roll easily for moving outdoors for the warmer months. Superb!

Comments about Self-Watering Rolling Planters, 15":

Have tried to grow tomatoes for years, only to end up with bugs, weeds, or animals getting to the tomatoes before me. This planter lets me keep the plants inside an enclosure, but move them as I need to. The self watering is a blessing in the FL sun.

Comments about Self-Watering Rolling Planters, 15":

Wow - a great looking planter I can move around easily! The self-watering feature works wonderfully...not like some I've tried. This one seems to really know when your plant might be "thirsty" and offers just enough to keep everyone happy. It rolls easily - even over carpet and looks pretty darn snazzy too. Do read the insert and find the goodies stashed underneath the packed bottom plate though. Assemble quickly per that insert then you and your now glad plant are good to go!

Comments about Self-Watering Rolling Planters, 15":

The self watering planters are fantastic. it keeps me from having to water so often. I decided to buy them because we travel some during the summer and it will help my friends who come to my house to water for me. I will never buy any other containers for my plants but self watering ones anymore. They are great.

Comments about Self-Watering Rolling Planters, 15":

The Pot looks good , the problem is while trying to pop the tops off the pegs for water drainage. They don't tap off , when I had to tap harder it cracked the bottom of the pot. I am very dissapointed.

Perfect size for my small back patio. I filled three of them with herbs, small pepper plants and a cherry tomato plant. I like how I can move the planters around to maximize sun, or shade, as needed. Very easy to assemble. Self-watering a nifty feature. A nice product all the way around.

Comments about Self-Watering Rolling Planters, 15":

I found this planter easy to put together and use. The water level indicators are easy to see, and the planters can go at least a week without adding water. Time will tell how well they will hold up to our weather here (we have four seasons). The planters are very attractive, although I don't really like the shiny finish.

Comments about Self-Watering Rolling Planters, 15":

The watering tube cover seems to be better designed than the ones on the bigger planters. This is a nice design for a single plant. It makes a good replace for the square foot planter. An optional cage would make it a five star design.

My Hibiscus with large yellow blooms looks wonderful in the white planter. Hibiscus need constant water in hot months, so the self-watering pot helps ensure it won't dry out.

Comments about Self-Watering Rolling Planters, 15":

These are total junk. For [$] I expect something that doesn't break. During assembly, one of the bases cracked. Gardener's Supply sent another base, with no problem. Now, a month after we have been using them, a wheel broke off! We are not being rough with the planters, we simply wheel them from one side of the porch to the other once a week.

Comments about Self-Watering Rolling Planters, 15":

I've used these for several years inside some teak planters that hold benches. They've always worked very well for me. The only negative experience was recently when we had 2 awful storms come through, one after the other. We got as much as 5 inches of rain in one day. There was also hail and wind gusts up to 70 MPH. The storm destroyed most of my geraniums, breaking their stems and peeling their leaves away. Begonia tubers floated up and away. And these planters completely filled with water and ran over. My other self-watering containers, such as the window boxes which were hanging over the railing, drained the excess water. These didn't. I had to pull all the plants our and replace the soil. It seems my other self-watering container have an overflow somehow, but these do not. However, this situation is very rare and has only occurred once in three or more years.

Comments about Self-Watering Rolling Planters, 15":

I used this planter on my terrace for vegetables. As instructed for outdoor use, I had to take a hammer to knock-out the caps on the drainage holes. One hole proved to be tougher than the other three and I managed to break the bottom of the container. After a lot of super-glue & tape, I finished the assembly and continue w/ my planting. So far, it is working great and the plants are thriving. The size and style (w/ wheels) are great for my small space, but I would warn anyone buying to be careful if buying for outdoor use. If the cap does not come off easily (after the second hit), move onto remove the other holes.

The water indicator on this is super easy to read and super easy to fill. I have an eggplant in one that has six eggplants on it and it's only been growing a month or so, from a very small purchased plant from a garden center. The plant has just zoomed in size and is producing lots of fruit. I used the organic self-watering planting mix in the container, from Gardener's Supply.

The granite color is not displayed, but it was a good choice - basically dark charcoal without any shine. Excellent accent with weathered teak furniture and the color stain on our deck.

I can't always be there to water my plants. I don't have to worry as much with this self watering container. I like the fact that I can roll it easily where I want it. If my plant needs full sun I can still move it to my cosy patio and make an attractive surrounding for evening sitting.

I ordered one, planted zinnia and marigold seeds in it. The plants grew very well, and I could roll the planter from sunny spot to sunny spot. Love the water capacity it holds....no longer have to worry about being gone for a few days and having plants wilt.

I purchased the product to grow celantro on my back deck. However, with the daily heat at over 100+ degrees it just won't grow. I even keep the plants out of the direct rays of the sun. Even my tomatoes are small this year due to the heat. I guess I need some kind of cover to keep the direct sun light off the tomatoes. The product is fine however.
