Just received this moisture meter today. So far it works as stated by manufacturer and seller. This will be a valuable tool in my arsenal for happy house plants this winter, once my plants are brought back inside, to prevent over and underwatering. Once I unpacked it, I immediately went to testing it on plants I had just watered, those I knew needed to be watered and those I wasn't quite sure. In each case, it read correctly and I proceeded to water those that needed a good drink. This is a good product, with good value for the money, and is sturdy and accurate. I purchased the smaller of the two options, as most my house plants are in nothing bigger than a 14 inch pot. However, if you have large floor plants, in much larger pots, you may need the longer version. So, my advice is to get this, especially if you're a busy person who tends to neglect your houseplants or if you're someone who tends to overwater. This will save you time and help you keep your plants happy and thriving. Read more
This thing is pretty cool and works too. Easier than having to replace batteries with others ones that I use to own. Happy to have this on hand .. not a bad price at all either. Read more
This is a great Moisture Meter and I agree with all the positive reviews left on this site. BUT the one thing that should be emphasized is that you need to follow the directions about NOT using it on very dry soil, rocky soil etc, which are very clearly detailed in the handy little KLUX Instructions booklet that come with it. Also you need to wipe it off from soil or dirt as the manufacturer recommends. If not, it will eventually stop working and read "DRY" when it is not! As a result you may find yourself (like I did) ordering a new one every few years because it has stopped working! Meanwhile, f you just gently use fine sandpaper on the tip to clean off the natural oxidation that occurs, it works like new! Read more
This works for the most part! In larger pots I found the readings to be a bit inaccurate and fluctuating? It will read “dry” in some big pots that are still wet but upon checking manually with my hands or taking some up from the bottom, I still feel wetness in the soil. The sensitivity is a bit off. It’s a good quick gauge check but I would recommend checking yourself in case the reading isn’t accurate before you drown your plant. It works… 80% of the time and at the very least a good stick to use to check if the soil sticks to it when you put it in and out. Design wise, it’s fine and functional. I’ve only had for 2 weeks but it’s holding up well. Will update should anything change. Read more
This soil moisture meter has been a game-changer for my indoor garden! It’s super easy to use — just stick it in the soil and get a quick reading. I no longer have to guess when to water, which has saved me from overwatering a few plants. The sensor feels accurate and responsive, and the size is perfect for small pots as well as bigger planters. For anyone trying to keep their plants happy and healthy, this little tool is incredibly helpful and convenient! Read more
This probe has made me aware of soil moisture levels at different depths. It has been especially effective for nurturing young tree saplings through their establishment of a deep root system. I have also used it for new sod areas. It takes away the guess work. VERY handy. Read more
This is so helpful with caring for my houseplants! It works quickly and easily. I have been using this for over a year and it has proven to be very durable! Read more
Just know..... I have gone through a few of these. They last about 2 years and then suddenly stop working (they stay on the "Bone Dry" reading, no matter what). It can be frustrating when you don't realize it at first and are overwatering your plants because of these false readings. But for short-term use, they work fine! Read more
