Design fault - my new review

The spikes are too short, once you stabilize it in the soil with a full bottle of water on top, the tap is pushed into the soil. I lengthened the spike with a dowel stick to stabilize it and keep it upright and the tap clear. The drip is also erratic, must test it first to see how successful that will be. Not ideal but might work with some modification.

Pros
  • Conserves water and helps reduce waste
Cons
  • May not work as well during extreme weather conditions

Not bad but needs some tweaks

I like the drip mechanism but the spike needs to be about two or three inches longer. Otherwise, it becomes a bit of a balancing act to keep everything vertical.

Pros
  • Provides peace of mind knowing plants are always watered
Cons
  • Can be distracting or noisy during use

It doesn't work in my review

It comes with instructions on how to calculate the internal between drops of water in order to cover the period when you are supposed to be away. But then regulating the drops frequency is impossible. It goes from nothing to a full flow and for sure it cannot be regulated with the precision of the calculation

Pros
  • Keep plants watered even during droughts or water restrictions
Cons
  • Risk of water waste if spikes are misplaced

didnt work/junk on my review.

I got these for my outdoor plants, the stakes weren't long enough to securely hold up even a small water bottle without the wind tipping them over unless the dirt was super firm, some of the taps randomly stopped dripping and had to be adjusted while some of the randomly would empty the whole bottle. unfortunately i waited too long to return. disappointed i left for vacation and my plants didn't get the watering they needed.

I love plants not this item.

I dislike the universal fit this provides. Water can escape with the amount of space that is open on this item.I like the idea and somewhat the design. Glue gun and permanently glue your plastic bottle, covering the open slots for water to stay in.I kept this item.

Pros
  • Directions could be easier to follow
Cons
  • Used it to self water plants while on vacation!Didn’t work!

You get what you pay for

I loved the idea behind these as I have a small garden and need a way to keep it watered when I am out of town for a day or two. You can pretty much stick any bottle In these. However my gallon bottle was so heavy it pushed the entire spike into the soil and clogged the drip. Other times the bottle tipped over somehow and just emptied its contents entirely. The drip system requires lots of trial and error to find the proper drip speed, the first time I tried I came back to a completely emptied…

Pros
  • Can be used all year round
Cons
  • Can be difficult to store when not in use

For Small bottles good for me

I like the concept of these and it works well with a small bottle. If you put a larger bottle on these they are top heavy and do not stay in the ground very well.

Pros
  • Reduces risk of overwatering or underwatering plants
Cons
  • Can be more expensive than other watering methods
