Follow the instructions. It's specific.
Use potting MIX not SOIL.
The watering tube goes in a particular corner, and the screen that goes over the bottom has a defined orientation.
Mix will get into the clean water reservoir and you'll have to clear the drain holes. When filling the planter up (every few days), do it gently to try and avoid stirring up too much debris.
There have been complaints about the wheels breaking the tub while being moved. My experience is to make sure those wheels are pushed all the way into the holes, and you won't have any problems, so long as the drunk frat guys from the corner bar don't decide to play Mario Cart the Home Game with your planters on their way past your house. Grr.

You might be able to adapt this product for hydroponics using the description on their web site.
Note that this is a repost although the initial post didn't get much traction. I purchased on a few weeks ago and recently planted a few tomatoes in it. I'm still trying to figure out how to install a trellis.
We promised ourselves to never buy again after last year, but caved a couple weeks ago because HD is so close. But here it is not two weeks later and those HD plants are crapping out.
Similar plants in same locations and conditions bought from a reputable nursery due fine.
