although the product I ordered was shown as available at the time of purchase, the delivery time ultimately took almost seven weeks.

It looks decent and it worked well for a while, albeit only tried Chia seeds up till that point. Now I tried some other seeds from the guide book and they just wouldn't take. It left me with a tevaplanter that is full of seeds everywhere, that have grown just enough to get firmly stuck in the grooves, but never beyond that point. I have tried scouring the internet for ways to clean the orifices of this thing but nothing had worked so far. I've removed what I can with a toothpick but even did doesn't seem to work entirely, as some root-system or other is still underneath it all in the walls of this thing. I have now given up entirely. It feels bad that you buy several of these as an early backer, then wait for actual years of delay to then receive a product that the owners don't seem to care enough about.

I've ordered one of tevaplanters of the initial Kickstarter campaign. Unfortunately, it never really worked, and it got a dust collector on our shelf. Lately, I finally managed to contact tevaplanter and explain my issues with the lack of water diffusion. After some back and forth about how I might be able to resolve my diffusion problem, I got a replacement :D. I only had to pay the shipping costs, which wasn't too bad initially. However, the first tests (with the included chia seeds, and some orchids) are not really convincing :/ The water diffusion seems to work with the new tevaplanter, as there is excess water in the drip tray, however, our seeds and orchis are kinda drying out instead of flourishing ... I want to emphasize that after the initial delay, the support really tended to customer care, tried to help resolve the issue, and provided the final "solution" with the replacement. However, considering the high costs and the limited usability, the cost-benefit calculation does not pay off in my opinion.

I don’t think mine is working! It doesn’t seep water out and I can’t get any seeds to start using the sowing methods. I tried soaking the Chia seeds as well as grass seeds using agar agar and nothing has worked for me.

An Israeli company that pretends to be a global company and charges very expensive shipping fees when it comes to shipping from Israel to Israel. The jar arrived without chia seeds. An expensive and unrewarding experience.

tried the "easy" planting, didn't bloom...

The delivery service was hopeless. UPS delivery timing and communication were awful. In fact the package was sent to the UK from Poland but then returned to Poland. When another deadline was missed it turned out that the package has missed its flight to the UK and would be delayed by a business day which turned out to be 3 days. No notifications were given and only by looking through the full tracking data could I be in for my delivery

While replies to emails have been quick (within minutes of sending), it feels like a bot is replying. I've had to provide details for the same things repeatedly despite them being in the previous emails. Ultimately, they shift blame on the customer for not using filtered water, while a similar cheaper product (Chia Pet) seems to work fine with just tap water. Using reverse osmosis filtered water did not produce better results.
