Instead of watering the plants or soil directly to risk overwatering or underwatering, you refill the reservoir whenever it is empty. Not ideal for all plants and you still have to add water yourself.
Community Reviews
This 8 inch self watering planter is a simple low cost option for keeping plants hydrated through a bottom reservoir and wick, and it includes a plate so it should not leak onto tables. The design can help with transplanting and general indoor or outdoor use, but the reservoir holds only a little water and may need frequent refilling. The small size is not suited to serious vegetables, and the pot can tip unless weighted down. Mosquitoes and moisture control are also concerns, so it works best for smaller plants that do not need deep drying cycles.
Common Questions (5)
It has a bottom reservoir and a wick that draws water up into the soil from below. The plant sits in an upper chamber, so you refill the reservoir instead of watering the soil directly, but the pot still needs manual refilling and is not ideal for every plant.
The reservoir holds relatively little water, and the capillary action only draws a small amount upward. That means the soil may need multiple refills to get fully hydrated, especially with fast-draining mixes.
The 8-inch size can tip over, especially outdoors, and adding heavier drainage rocks to the bottom can help. It is also fairly small for larger plants or vegetables, with one comment estimating it may only fit about one full-grown lettuce.
The reservoir can become a breeding spot for mosquitoes if water sits in it. Adding mosquito bits to the reservoir is a practical fix mentioned for preventing that problem.
It includes a plate, so it should not leak directly onto tables. That makes it easier to use indoors without needing a separate saucer.

I went in store this evening and got all those sizes. Also bottom dishes were on sale for $0.60 - $1.60 (for other planters that don't have it attached).
