Editorial Review:
Don't let your houseplants die of thirst due to your busy lifestyle. The Deluxe Plant Watering System is ideal for people who can't always be there to care for their plants. Since it waters up to 14 different indoor plants automatically, you'll know your plants are watered whether you're on vacation or just too busy to remember. At an average rate of flow, the Deluxe Plant Watering System can water 14 plants for two full weeks. The Deluxe Plant Watering System has a large, 7-liter tank capacity that uses an electric pump to water up to 14 potted plants automatically. An advanced water control system enables accurate flow, while individual adjustable taps regulate the amount for each plant. The taps insert into the soil and have nozzles that release an adjustable amount of water to each plant every 12 or 24 hours, as specified. You can even use multiple taps for plants in large pots, if desired. A long, 65-foot hose connects the plants to the Deluxe Plant Watering System. Taps are inserted at user-specified intervals to accommodate the plants to be watered. Connect the power adapter, and select the amount of water to be dispensed every 12 or 24 hours. The Deluxe Plant Watering System does the rest, shutting off automatically when the tank is empty. The water is delivered in short bursts at 30-second intervals in order to allow time for the water to sink into the soil. Please note: When the system is watering for 30-60 seconds each day, the motor noise is definitely audible, so you can either program it for every 24 hours (watering during the day) or plan the 12 hour time frame that is most convenient. Unless you are a heavy sleeper, don't program the plant waterer to go on during sleep hours as it may be loud enough to wake you up.

loud but works well 
It is a little loud when it kicks on, but I am able to schedule it to run when the noise is not an issue. It only has 12 and 24-hour cycles, but it also turns itself on whenever it is powered on (assuming it is set to a water level other than "off"). So, I use it on a lamp timer to turn the unit on at whatever frequency I wish, thereby allowing me more flexibility than the built-in timer will afford. The water is delivered in gradual increments so as to allow it to soak into the soil better. If you are... more info

Plants say thank you! 
I have a bunch of pepper plants that I've been raising from seed for a few years now. Went out of town for a couple of weeks, and this system kept them alive! It takes a bit of checking to figure out exactly what setting to use for the plants, but that wasn't a big deal. Starting about a week before I left, I waited until the plants were totally dry, then set up the system. I picked the midpoint, and waited a day or two... Then checked with my moisture meter, and adjusted up/down from there... Filled... more info

Does the job but It leaks and is too noisy 
First problem:
If the tank is set up too low, the motor doesn't have enough power to pump the water to the higher plants.
But if it is set so the the water level is higher than the lowest spike, then the water slowly dribbles out, eventually leaving a pool of water on the floor. Second problem:
The noise that the device produces is intolerable. I took it apart thinking perhaps the motor was hard mounted to the housing, but it did have small rubber mounts, which I interpret that the... more info

It's great, plain and simple 
This product is built well, and not complicated to set up nor to use. I read the instruction manual, expecting a huge hassle and assembly, but this was not the case. I had the auto-watering system in place for a week-long trip out of town, and when I came back my 10 plants were doing so well! My thought process was that I would have to bug one of my friends and pay them $50 to come water my plants anyway, so why not just give this system a try. It is more consistent than I could ever be, so I have been... more info
