Customer Reviews for VEVOR DWC Hydroponics Grow System Deep Water Culture with Top Drip 1 Bucket 5Gal

Great product

Nice kit, no leaks. Pump is a bit noisy but it's tolerable. Refilling water is annoying when you have a large plant.I grew pepper plants in these and had great success. Started in a different system until a good root system formed, then transfered to the buckets.Assembly on this system was a little cumbersome, but just needs some patience.

I erred on the side of 5 rather than 4 stars. Or really, I rounded up. I love this set-up. It provide everything you need to start hydroponics. The only problem is that they leak where the bottom straw thing comes up. Knowing that now I glued them before putting them together. Other than that, they are awesome for so many reasons. I do like that you can see how much water is in there. It's good for bigger plants that are difficult to lift up. They also have a hole that allows for water and nutrients to be added without lifting. The pump works great. The little air stones also work great. It's enough for 8 nice size plants. Anyway, if you are a beginner or a pro hydroponic gardener, these are great. I have purchased 2 sets and will likely purchase again. It's a good price for all you get.

I disliked the tubes not being precut and having to fit them into the openings in the bucket. Two of my buckets leak and I have no way to correct this. Otherwise, it's a great setup.

Assembly took me 25 minutes. Had all the parts easy to find and assemble. I'll be buying more.

Nice beginner kit for the money. These are not hard to make DIY, but the kit made it a click away.

Got this package of 8 hydroponic buckets, sturdy, durable for an indoor gardening. It is so perfect for my bell peppers.

The pump and air stones work great, seems to be plenty powerful. Comes with everything you need. Really can’t complain.

ONLY CUT WHEN: the blue tubes have to be cut. So place the grommets and tube holders in first. After making sure one side is ALL THE WAY in, then cut it to fit. When you cut short it leaks.

I have this hooked up right now and for the money it's a good value. Works exactly like it should and takes up as much room as 4 buckets do. I have 4 zucchini plants going and they're doing well. My two complaints are with the directions or lack of - All the pieces are labeled but the directions are one sheet and it's a picture of the setup . We figured it out and it wasn't super hard but written directions would have been appreciated. I couldn't even find anybody on YouTube putting one together. My other issue was the piece of tubing are not cut to size . We had to cut the tubing and also the clear tubing that goes on the side of the bucket ( to show the water level), there was no reason for that not to be cut correctly. It's hard plastic so if you cut it wrong you'd be SOL. aside from that I'm very happy with the product.
