It's been about a month since I first planted tomatoes in them and no complaints! I have had to do very minimal watering nor refilling the reservoir. Though, we have had a very wet spring. It is dry these last couple of weeks and I have yet to refill the reservoir. These are very well though-out planters. The reservoir is well sealed off from mosquito breeding. The materials feel sturdy; everything is snug. 

Time will tell how the color holds up to our California sun.
