Product Description
Looking for a way to keep your houseplants alive while you're on vacation? The Oasis Automatic Plant Watering System by Claber is a practical, versatile solution that distributes up to 25 liters (over 6 gallons) of water to as many as 20 plants. The programmable water-distribution system is completely independent, running on one 9V battery (sold separately), eliminating the need for a connection to a tap or electrical main. Select the 10, 20, 30, or 40 day program, depending on how long you'll be gone, and the Oasis Automatic Plant Watering System's internal device automatically regulates the water pressure to guarantee constant, calibrated watering of your plants for the chosen period. The battery-operated electronic timer and latching solenoid valve allow optimal efficiency and precision, as well as low battery power consumption. The watering kit's internal filter can be washed to ensure reliable operation and quality of water distributed to the plants.

Summary: Does what it says 2008-09-03
Comment: This device was simpler to set up than I expected. And it simply works. No fuss, no muss. Cut the tubes to fit the space between the plants, put the drippers in place and it started doing its job. The only negatives I have is that it has drippers for only up to around 20 plants. I have more.

Summary: Works well 2008-09-01
Comment: Even though this is for houseplants we wanted to make sure all of our outside plants didn't completely die when we went on vacation. We had to put all of the plants on a shaded porch and bunch together but the watering system kept them watered just enough to keep them healthy and doing well even in the heat of August.

Summary: Exceeded my expectations 2008-08-18
Comment: The product does a great job of watering your plants while you are away. When you first open the box it is a little daunting to see all the hose and little plastic parts. But, if you follow the directions exactly it works like a charm! I have 10 house plants. I set the dial to the slowest feed when I left for a 3 week business trip. When I returned everything was as lush and green and vibrant as before I left. I definitely recommend this product for people that travel a lot and have house plants. On a side note, I noticed that the plants that were closest to the device and first to receive and last to receive water received slightly more than the other plants. I elevated the unit just a couple of inches higher than the minimum directed. Despite this, all the plants thrived while I was away.

Summary: Exactly What I Needed 2008-07-31
Comment: I go away on business for a week or 10 days about 3 times a year. I have a balcony with about 20 plants that I don't want to have to replace and mature again. There are people who can, and sometimes will, agree to water my plants. Sometimes I come home and the plants have been either under watered or they've been watered to death the day before I get home; occasionally they've been watered just right. Recently none of my cast of potential plant sitters was available so I searched and found Oasis. It is just what my plants needed! I set it up a couple of days before I left to test it, and not being sure, I saturated each plant before setting the Oasis to run. I don't think that was necessary. When I returned home all of my plants were healthy and happy. The instructions say to use the device indoors (outdoors it could overheat), and I could have moved the plants indoors, but I have a storage closet on the balcony and I was able to set up the reservoir on a tray table in the closet and run the tubing under the door to the plants which, per instruction, were a couple of feet below the reservoir (on the balcony floor). I would have liked a few extra plant emitters and would like to be able to buy more tubing in the future, but have not found a source. Emitters that you find at home centers are NOT the same and won't work; they will just run constantly... and the drip irrigation hose available at home centers is different, it's more ridged and very difficult to remove from the emitters and the Oasis after use if you want. The tubing provided with Oasis is soft and pliable.

Summary: Great watering solution - with caveats 2008-03-26
Comment: Have used this continuously for over 2 years - somewhat successfully. I recommend this product and am now buying the replacement. I definitely recommend following the instructions to "prime" the drip system. My major complaint is that replacement parts for any item appear not to be available. The drippers clog when using hard water (anybody recommend how to clean them?); I would like to be able to get replacement drippers. The electronic control (which just failed) is also not replaceable - buy a new unit. Well, as a result of buying a new unit I will now have replacement parts for non-electronic items.
