I have had my garden for almost 2 years. And I love it. The garden it’s self is efficient, quiet and looks good (I got the white shelves) The customer service has been amazing, every single time I have had questions, they have been quick, polite and to the point with responses and have solved the issue quickly. Love the garden, love the service, can’t wait for another 2 years of yummy fresh veggies/fruits

In reviewing the three-tier rise garden, I find it aesthetically pleasing, well-built, and easy to maintain. I have achieved excellent results using their dry nutrients, and I have harvested a substantial amount of vegetables. However, I must highlight the company’s unwavering commitment to its products. When I encountered a unique issue with my garden that they had never encountered before, they promptly provided me with instructions and replacement parts. Their timely and thorough response resolved the problem. The only aspect I would suggest they improve is the inclusion of an “alive agent” to facilitate communication with customers beyond email. Overall, I highly recommend this company.

I got the Rise Garden primarily to produce fresh lettuce greens throughout the year. Being able to grow a variety of herbs, vegetables, flowers, and fruits is a plus. After getting over an early learning curve, my Rise Garden is successfully producing fresh lettuce and herbs. I haven't had it long enough to see how the fruiting/flowering vegetables will turn out, e.g. tomatoes, strawberries, broccoli. The system is great if you can get accurate advice from the app recommendations or from your own measurements of pH+EC on how to adjust the nutrients and pH level of your water. Once you figure that out, things feel very easy to manage. But I think I still have more to learn to keep a high productivity indoor garden. The customer service is great. I've engaged with them several times for technical advice on diagnosing issues with garden growth. They also replaced my 4-pack of Sorrel because my pack did not germinate the first time. The variety of seed pods they offer also keeps me excited to try and grow new things. I am currently subscribed to the membership to see if I feel it is value for money, and it so far seems to be. It's easy to manage and tailor and seems to be designed well for my garden needs. If I venture out and try growing with my own seeds, I may find that the membership no longer suits my needs, but for now I think I will stick with it. Very happy I made this investment.

This is a kicking hydroponic system. I am so glad that I have it

The worst! I spent hundreds of dollars on this and the pump failed in 3 weeks. All you can do is chat with a bot! Crappy system Don’t spend your money!

Some pretext: I own 3 tier Rise Garden and 1 Rise Roma. I have owned them for 3 weeks now. I have also been an owner of a Gardyn 4.0 system for 2 months now. Actual Review: I was really impressed with the bang for the buck Rise Gardens provided. The product is high quality. My wife and I have built a few DIY projects through the years and considered making our own cabinet hydroponic system. Well I don't think it was going to end up being any cheaper and definitely was going to be a ton more effort. Below I will point out what impressed me about Rise. I will compare to Gardyn since that's what I have and they are in the same price range(base rise for gardyn3-4.0). That will give you a good idea of what you get for the money: 1. Rise comes with a nurseryfor each level you order!(gardyn asks for $80 for 1). The rise nursery is super low quality plastic but realistically that's all one needs. 2. Rise comes with covers for the empty spots where one does not plant anything. Gardyn charges $4 per cap(they have 30 spots on the system so a $120). 3. Rise uses the following materials in their system - metal, wood and plastic. Gardyn only uses plastic and wood. As such Rise feels higher quality and looks nicer. 4. Rise has engineered their product better. The company has hidden their computer inside a cabinet, away from water. Gardyn's computer is on the bottom of the lid just above the water. 5. Rise came with tds strips so I could see the hardness of my water, my water is RO so I did not need that but again pointing out one more thing that Rise gave for free. 6. Mobile app - Both have a mobile app but Rise's is much better organized. It measures your EC(not sure how accurate that is so I bought my own EC meter) and tells you how much to square from the pH down solution they give you and how much of the food to add. You need to remember to do this with Gardyn every week and they always ask you to add the same. Well EC in water can vary so that's not a good sustainable approach. 7. AI - Gardyn continuously tries to sell an "AI" model that will tell me when to feed my plant. That model is not very good, like I said it does not offer any EC reading, no pH reading. Costs $35 a month(membership cost)!!! Rise does not try to twist my arms to buy into a useless AI and has reminders and everything. 8. Food - Plants need different nutrients during different cycles of their life. Rise comes with "sprout" and "blossom" to address the different stages. Gardyn comes with just 1 food. HOWEVER Gardyn gives you more food versus Rise. However Rise's is more adequate. 9. Looks - That's the only reason I kept my Gardyn. Because it's like a vertical system so one can admire all of their plants at the same time. It's sort of like a vegetable painting on your wall. So I would say Gardyn wins here if this is what you are after. Rise looks really good too but you won't see all your plants at the same time after they are fully grown. 10. Rewards program - Rise has a very adequate rewards program. I will next use my rewards to buy some trellis where I don't recall such a program with Gardyn. 11. Support - I liked Garden's support better. More on point and quicker. 12. Maintenance - I think that would be subjective. Depends on how often you maintain your system throughout the year. Seems like Gardyn will be more difficult to do deep cleaning of but I am not sure yet. 13. Parts - Both companies sell parts and that is great. 14. Configuration - Rise hands down. Rise allows you to upgrade your system from 1 to 2 or 3 levels. And now even allows you to upgrade from regular system to Rise Roma. There's 0 flexibility with Gardyn. Overall I think Rise Garden is likely the best indoor hydroponic system right now. Gardyn is probably second best. Aurogarden has smaller, less impressive systems so I did not even consider them. Rise's quality is superb and I feel that I got all the value for my money I was looking for, maybe even a little extra.

Initially Loved my unit- We purchased the large unit off of Amazon We planted lettuce and flowers was beautiful then the power cord went out. Should be an easy fix however no one seems to carry the power adapter we called RISE for help so many times as it is under warranty. They told us call office depot, They also cannot find the replacement power adapter to fit the newest large RISE Unit - now we are stuck with a $1500 piece of junk :( they keep telling us its on back-order buyer beware - they should have just replaced the unit but nope................#warrantynotreal

The products are too expenive
