This is pretty good quality, easy to install and works great. I bought a clothes storage container from Walmart for about $5 and drilled a hole for the tube going to the inlet and another for the exit pipe after I put it all together to make sure I drilled the right height.

This thing is great. Lots of plants with a wonderful taste you won’t get in a store bought vegetables.Did not come with the timer controlled pump. I had to buy that extra.All in all not bad.

Easy to assemble with quality materials. Much cheaper than trying to build one from scratch.

getting ready to get it going

I like everything but the sponges,peat would make the unit almost perfect along with colored water pump line

A good project if you are moderately capable of assembly. The best way to tackle this is to start at the bottom and work up through the layers paying careful attention to plug location on the way up. You must tap the joints together solidly to avoid leakage after assembly. There is a small mallet provided but a good mallet or a wood block and hammer would be much better. I ran this unit continuously for more than 12 hours after assembly and had no leaks. If you were to go out and purchase the materials to build your own, you would spend at a minimum $150 so I believe it is a good value. Had there been some useful assembly instructions, I would give it a 5 rating. For some reason Amazon markets so many Chinese products which typically have zero instructions.

Everything is great except for the stand. The system will not drain correctly without sloping each tube. Once you permanently seal each end (once you have the correct drain angle) you can modify the stand. I put this in a grow tent, but plan on moving it outside once the weather gets better. Overall I am very satisfied and now have a model so that I can make my own as needed. You can grow anything and transplant if it outgrows the system.

A decent priced product for those interested in starting and learning the intricacies of hydroponics. Looking forward to the journey with this garden system.

This came on time, was easy to set up, and my plants are doing great.

When I purchased this hydroponic system I was a little skeptical. Seemed like the price was too good to be true. I struggled a little to set up but overall was fairly easy. I simply pushed piping together and hand tightened. No leaks and it worked great. I purchased a 10 gallon plastic tote with a cover and drilled a hole near top for pump cord and return line. Found bilge hose with a clamp at Lowes that worked great for return line. The net cups are hard to find if you want to have extras from what was provided. I used rockwool cubes instead of the cubes provided. Grew lots of fresh lettuce, arugula, microgreens, kale and swiss chard. I had a blast with it! -GVA
