Cole & Mason Burwell Self-Watering Potted Herb Saver, Windowsill Herb Planter Herb Box/Indoor Herb Garden, Triple, Suitable for 3 pots (85 mm), Includes 12 x Pads, White/Grey

Update June 2023: following the issues with the product, I’ve claimed under the 2 year guarantee providing photos and receipt and have received replacements for the two items originally ordered. Excellent customer service and retain a five star rating for the product.Update May 2023: I’ve had this a year now and the spout has rusted and floods the windowsill. It’ll be interesting to see if they replace under the two year guaranteeInitial review: Will keep herbs watered on a windowsill for a weekend. Looks nice and comes with extra water-drawing pads, as happy herbs root over them, although you can dry them out in the sun, remove the he roots and reuse them. Note it does not come with herbs. I grow pots in the greenhouse, or buy them at the supermarket for more unusual recipes, and this keeps them useable for longer.

Excellent product. Looks attractive and has been admired by many of my friends. One friend has asked for one as a Christmas present and another is thinking of buying one for one of her sons. Having had a basil plant looking very sad and ready to be consigned for the bin once in the watering tray,it is now growing like a triffid !Would most certainly recommend this product to anyone who likes cooking with fresh herbs.

Well made, easy to use and aesthetically pleasing. I've had no issues with water leaking from the spout, looks like Cole & Mason have fixed this issue.I received one of these as a gift, and have bought another one since - supermarket herbs just keep on going using this product! One thing to note is that plants often have a tendency to root into the pads, so the plants may need lifting and rotating once or twice a day after they grow to a certain size - although this is probably a sign that the herbs need dividing or repotting into a new/larger container...The pads have lasted well, coming up to three months they've needed 2 or 3 rinses, and look a little worn out now, but I think there may be another month left in them. (The 'legs' of the pads are a little fiddly to thread down into the slots in the tray, but this doesn't need doing very often).

It's right that the design isn't very clever because it leaks but I followed the advice from one of the other reviewers and bought that silicon stuff. It was easy to apply and now I have a fully functioning very pretty pot for my chives.

Positives: it looks nice and it works, to an extentCons: I just can’t see any reason for what is essentially two metal boxes to retail at over £30Sorry.

Use to have the 3 pot version. But these are great for a single pot.Keep the bottom tray filled with water and it will keep your shop brought herbs alive for a long time.

Our shop bought basil & coriander from New Year is still alive & flourishing! Always fresh herbs to use.... looks great. Does leak slightly but it's not an issue for us.

Just love this supermarket herb grower! I’m useless with plants and tried nurturing a mint plant. It was doing really well but felt I needed some help! I’ve flat leaf parsley, thyme and mint in it. I can see how the seal between the actual box and where the water goes in could be a weak point, but so far all good. Herbs drink an awful lot, and I top it up every day!Can really recommend this. Two weeks on and all three herbs doing great! Saving loads of money and the smell of fresh herbs is lovely.
