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.

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.
The self-watering wick system can pull water upward from the bottom reservoir into the soil compartment.
The low price point can make these planters practical for quick outdoor transplanting.
The planter includes a plate that helps prevent leaks onto tables during indoor use.
The reservoir design can keep the drenched water level only slightly above the water line.
The self-watering reservoir requires refilling and may not suit all plant types.
The capillary action draws very little water, so soil moisture depends heavily on the substrate medium.
The water reservoir can attract mosquitoes, and the planter may tip over without heavier drainage rocks.
The small 8-inch size limits serious vegetable growing and can create stability issues outdoors.
