Melphoe 2 Pack Self Watering Hanging Planters Indoor Flower Pots, 6.5 Inch Outdoor Hanging Plant Pot Basket, Plant Hanger with 3Hooks Drainage Holes for Garden Home (Gray)

Beautiful, self-watering planter. It is plastic but looks like glass hanging from a window. I love the water effect and how easy it is to maintain. Initial instruction on how to get the chain attatched was confussing but I figured it out. Very happy with this product and ordered more!

The best feature of these planters is the ability to water my plants from below (the biggest issue I've had with house plants is "root rot" - often resulting in a once healthy plant suddenly covered in a ton of yellowing leaves). Definitely use the rope cuttings supplied. Until your plant's roots start making their way down through the container into the water - when you might want to start thinking about replanting in a bigger container anyway - the rope definitely helps in pulling up moisture. I also think the both the color (emerald-green) and design of the planters are very attractive. I'm using one of the planters on a desk (removed the hook and chain entirely) and another as a hanging planter, and both are working well. My only complaint (and I think another reviewer already mentioned this) is the difficulty you might have in getting water into the well below the container. You're going to have to lift the entire plant out of the planter (unless, as someone else suggested, you drill a hole). This is relatively easy for the planter I have on the desk, but a little more unwieldy for the hanging plant. And, as they both grow bigger and heavier, it might become a bit more of a problem. Still, all-in-all I'm very happy with the planters and would purchase again.

My spider plant is thriving in these hangers. They look amazing and are holding up after months of use. The only downside is that it’s difficult to fill the bottom container for the self watering part. If you have a watering can with a neck, it might not be too bad. If not, you have to take the whole thing off to fill up.

My philodendrons and pothos love these planters! I either kept forgetting to water my plants or overwater them, and this pot helped me maintain the correct amount of moisture in the soil. I just hung it from my curtain rods in the window and the plants have thrived.

In person it looks more plastic-y than the more glasslike images, but it's also a darker green than the images, which helps (at least imo). I do recommend green over white/gray, since dirt that falls through is less noticeable. It doesn't feel flimsy - it's not extremely thick, but it's enough for small plants. Also, the lightness enables hanging it up from curtain rods without bending them over time. (Mine is the 5.3 inch, so I can't say how the 8.3 would hold up though.) Overall I love it! For me, it's exactly what I was looking for.

Loved the idea of a low maintenance planter that I could fill with water and not have to worry about for a while. Unfortunately I learned fairly quickly that the water basin at the bottom serves as an ideal environment for fungus to grow, and it wasn’t long after I started using them that I had little mushrooms growing in the bottom of the planter. As long as the water is replaced every couple of days or so you should be good, but I feel like that defeats the purpose of having a “self watering” planter. I was also somewhat disappointed with the size of the planters. They were far smaller than I had pictured them to be. Credit where credit is due though, they do look nice when hung, and are quite durable for being made out of plastic. I don’t outright dislike them, and they’ve definitely grown on me, but the issues I listed are indeed problematic and do count against them as far as I’m concerned.

Love these for my patio!! I replaced the black ones I got from buying hanging plants from home depot. These are so much nicer to look at

Love these. Great quality. Hang at the right level. No more rot.

Très beau. Exactement la grandeur que je voulais et la couleur.

Las macetas no tienen la culpa de que mis plantas estén muertas, pero bueno producto, son de plástico, lo cual las hace ligeras para colgarlas!

Esthétique, pratique, j'adore

her plant loves this container as the plant hangs with heart shaped leaves Very Happy Plant

It exceeds my expectations
