It's bit expensive... and wish the color is white - it's more of a beige color vase.
It actually works - I had it for couple of weeks now, and it's cool so far. I like the water gauge on top, but you better keep it low hung, other wise, it would be hard to see it from close. The initial settlement of dirt can be somewhat dusty... I'd recommend covering the bottom up with stones, or something to help close up the bottom from the dirt to fall out. It doesn't make too much of mess initially as I thought... but it leaks slightly as you install, but manageable.
I love mixing things up with the plant service I provide my clients. This planter is a fabulous conversational piece. Each time people see an orchid (which grows extremely well in it) - upside down they always comment. Some like it some don't. The contrast of seeing something growing upside down from the normal right side up challenges our beliefs about things. I'm ordering more in the near future.
Just got this and repotted my plant today. The pot works great and the concept is solid. I would like to have had it come with a spare mesh or two (for soil retention). I had to modify the one it comes with for my plant and if I ever want to put anything else in here I'll have to find/make my own repalcement... I'll probably use plastic canvas (for needlepoint projects) when the time comes, though. We'll see how it does over time and how my plants respond, but I definitely have high hopes for this well made/designed product.
Amazing planter and what a conversation piece!
Great planters. Arrived looking great with all of the necessary pieces in place.

Description
Description: Defying gravity, the unique upside-down planter encourages abundant greenery at home and at work, without sacrificing floor space. The Sky Planter, with its innovative design, allows you to save space. Look up in any home, office or other indoor environment and the least used space will inevitably be the ceiling. What better place to grow an indoor garden without interrupting your day-to-day living. Sky Planter conserves water. Potted plants commonly lose water through evaporation and drainage. The Boskke Sky Planterâ€TMs unique reservoir feeds water gradually to the plantâ€TMs roots. Because there is no excess water to drain away, they can be used indoors, without losing water to evaporation. Transform your view of nature. Look up and enjoy the beauty of nature with a Boskke Sky Planter.

Thanks LuKs
A fun and offbeat way to create an indoor herb garden
The planter is nice. It says medium, but is actually on the small side. Overall the planter is a quality product. It has a multitude of parts that come with it and everything works very well. I am using this for growing tomatoes, but it really isn't meant for this and I will have to change the tomato out to a bigger planter later.
Brilliant design. Easy to install. The plants are thriving.
I think this is an awesome idea to hang herbs in the kitchen. I will definitely be buying the other sizes! Thank you.
