It is not of good quality in my opinion, neither the bag nor the tube, as the bag ripped, the seals are useless as they cannot hold the one-liter bag, and the tube is made of Teflon but breaks easily. Personally, I will not reorder it.
Unfortunately, one bag was torn at the bottom at the point of sealing, and a second one tore again at the point of sealing after a few days of use. However, the plants remained hydrated for 20 days with the simultaneous use of a special gel.
I have tried it for 2 summers exclusively on indoor plants. (such as yucca, Janet Craig dragon tree).
It works because the plants survive, but due to the dry atmosphere and high temperatures in the summer, some leaves will dry out. It is more effective to use a self-watering system with an upside-down bottle. I apply it every summer because it can provide minimum hydration to the plants, especially those that should not have water pooling in the pot saucer.
I followed exactly the instructions written on the packaging, however no water was transferred from the bag to the soil of the plant. The plants that were more resistant survived due to the simultaneous use of another product for automatic watering. I do not recommend it and I definitely will not trust it again.
Due to my mistake in the first trial, I removed the entire wick from the plastic tube in order to soak it better, so in order to put it back, it needed a wire that I passed through the tube.
The package included plastic sticks for application in the pot (not metal hooks) which, although they look strange, actually secure the bag to the pot just fine.
My objection concerns the immersion of the tube in the pot. In one of the 3 pots, the wick went all the way inside the tube, so practically it would never water the plant. In the second pot, I opened a larger hole and tried to push the tube with the wick on the side of the tube and not at the tip. When I tried to arrange the bag a little, the tube completely popped out of the soil. I don't know if it ultimately works as a solution, but because the cost is low, it's worth a try (I want it to cover me during a 10-day absence where 2 waterings will be needed on the 4th and 7th day).
It works great for me. I have been using it for 5 years, both in winter and summer. Just follow the instructions (it's not rocket science)
Stay away. I haven't managed to secure the bags and I use bottles instead. Results are sometimes positive, sometimes negative.
Definitely try them for a week or two BEFORE you go on vacation.

The system simply doesn't work. The wick doesn't draw water from the bag.

, it is a very good solution if you are away from home for a period of time
