The first planter did not work at all I got mine by backing the Kickstarter. The first planter did not work at all. The tevaplanter company replaced it at no cost. The second one worked for a few months. However, the planter became covered with a white film that blocked the whole. This caused the loss of two orchids. Customer support suggested soaking the planter in a vinegar and citric acid bath. They recommended using filtered water. I have always used filtered water.

Great idea but does not work Tevaplanter is really a great idea and I wished honestly it’s working. I tried it several times now, with different kinds of plants and water but it does not work. The water doesn’t come through the material and every plant dried out. So I only have two very expensive ceramic- vases now. Very sad

Cool look but is not working at all Backed the kickstarter something like 3 years ago and received the products this autumn. Box is cool, pots are cool, first try with chia seeds worked super. Then, every other plant I tried has been a complete disaster. First of all you are forced to use rain or distilled water, and there is no way to put any fertilizer in it unless you want the "holes" to be crippled by white salts. Then, the pots itself does not keep wet, but the water keeps flowing in the saucer, eventually filling it, wetting everything and of course emptying the teva itself. Orchids must still be manually moisturized, everything else does not receive enough water to prosper. Sadly, it was really a waste of money.

Looks cool, Does not work Looks cool, really wished it worked, but unfortunately it does not. I’ve only used it with distilled or rainwater, and water stops making its way to the outside surface. I even cleaned it with vinegar, distilled water, and citric acid; as recommended by the company. It seems to help temporarily, but quickly declines. If you’re thinking about buying one of these; do not. Save your plants and use a regular pot.

Beautiful but useless Beautiful but useless. I got mine on Kickstarter and doesn't work at all. Water didn't even wet the surface of tevaplanter, impossible for a plant to grow. Assistance were terrible. They asked for a video and they just disappear, even after many mail. Maybe someone can found a working one but mine were not worth it.
