After reading some reviews about the difficulty getting the root ball thru the bottom of the device, I decided to wrap the root ball in plastic wrap so that I could compress it without disturbing the integrity of the ball and the roots. It was still a challenge, but finally a success. The "watering" device was hard to clip onto the frame, but with the aid of pliers it was done. All in all, I'm optimistic that we will finally have some great tomatoes that don't taste like the plastic ones from the store.

I’ve bought this product before. This one had a tight opening for the plant making it difficult to center it safely. Killed the first one. Also has weird fold at the bottom which accumulates the water.

These are very cheap knock-off versions of the Original Topsy Turvy planters. We have an old one and these new ones are not nearly as good. They are much smaller, they do not have the internal reservoir for water, they do not have the stablizing ring around the bottom, nor the ring around the opening for the plant. Very disappointed in the quality.

We had a Topsy Turvy Tomato Planter in the past, and since we had good success with it we thought we'd try it again. It works great, and is the easiest way to grow tomatoes. So glad we decided to try it again!

I have had Topsy Turveys before, so I know they work. They are great space savers - I have for several years hung two out from the edge of my deck which is on what would be the second story of my walkout basement house. Below them is a short partial wall holding up an area of plantings, so I can just walk atop the wall and pick tomatoes from the Topsy Turvys once they come in! The Topsy Turveys usually last me about 3-4 years each before needing to be replaced, and, since the tops are accessible from my deck ledge, I can easily lean over and water them. Love these! Just be sure when you water to do a little at a time - you want to keep the water from coming through the bottom and wetting the leaves if possible.
