Wow I finally used it, in a couple of days, growing strong, it's doing exactly what is stated

Works like it should , automatic settings i have 4 peppers plants growing about to give peppers .. Nice my peppers are growing out to the light , wish it was a little taller , noise is pretty quiet and my plants grow faster than outside , Height is alright

A mi hija le encantó. Cumple con lo prometido .

Best homegrown lettuce ever. Tastes much better than store bought and lasts much longer. Even stays crispy for over a week in the fridge.

April update: I have been getting a good harvest from this once I started using the fertilizer regularly. I'm used to growing in soil, where you don't fertilize any seedlings until they've grown true leaves. With this, I would go ahead and fertilize as soon as you see sprouts. The other thing I've learned is that this likes to be almost completely full most of the time. If you can hear the pump, it's struggling, and to keep it covered completely means keeping it topped up. I have used filtered water from the fridge, which seems to have helped a ton as I just pulled out all the roots from the last set and it's still incredibly clean on the inside. My complaint about the cycle starting stands, as power outages have knocked this off its schedule several times and it's a bit annoying to have to wake up super early to reset it. I noticed that the plants closer to the pump struggled (left side) while the plants farther away did really well. For my second planting, I intend to only do 4 plants spaced well on the right side and see if I can get some indoor tomatoes growing. This works great for a minimum capacity and it will probably be best to use it for very small plants: herbs, leafy things. I have some specialty tomato seeds for plants that top out at 10 inches tall, so it will be a fun experiment to see how they do. I am adding this review and a reminder to come back with results as this starts to grow lettuce. I grow a lot of produce outside as I am fortunate enough to have a lot of space and sunshine, but especially in the winter months I would really like to have access to fresh green things and so I've tried tabletop systems like this sporadically over the years. The one I ordered is white, though I'm not sure the color of the plastic makes a difference for growing. The lights seem very bright and we're often thinking we've forgotten to turn off the kitchen light at night and later realize it's just this going strong. It was simple to set up and I do indeed appreciate the hand holds underneath for when you've got this full of water and are moving it around. As another reviewer said, there's no way you're getting 12 plants in these spots, but I opted to start with spinach, which is an expensive grocery store item but doesn't take up much growing space. I am on my second try as my husband finally consulted the instructions after a couple weeks and noticed that I was indeed supposed to cover the seeds with the stickers - important point. At least until they germinate, there's supposed to be a cover over them. I do wonder how I will be able to reuse these stickers since I only got 12 in the initial pack, but the sponge reorder I did also came with stickers, so maybe that will work out. The holes are square instead of round, but the sponges don't seem to mind. I wish the timer was adjustable as the 16 hours of light that can only be started when you push the power button is a bit inconvenient. For the price, I wish this was taller and more customizable but otherwise I have no complaints. Should be able to update with pictures once I get some germination.

Works great, fast growing. Only down side is make sure to put in a separate room, man this thing is bright, lights up the whole house even in the daylight

It's a pain to use and maintain. Doesn't grow much.

My daughter loves this. Literally start to see results on herbs within a couple of weeks. Energy efficient also
