These planters are great and as I mentioned in the headline, especially for someone that forgets to water! They have a water reserve system that is ideal for New England summers. Make sure you really think through the size you want. I think I went a bit big and could have gone with the smaller planter. they are  a bit big for my front steps, but I think eventually I'll move them to a back patio that I'd like to install and then I'll buy the next size down for the front. 


Pros: Water reserve system; and cost for the durability 
Cons: Size ...but that was my issue for not really measuring as well
