Awesome for grow bags to catch the water
I bought a 10 pack of these back in 2018 and I just ordered another 10 pack. These are very sturdy (compared to other plant saucers) and have lasted over 2 years and are going to last even longer. For example, now that they're all set up under all my grow bags in the yard, I can't tell the difference between the "old" ones and the ones i just ordered.I think if you use them as intended and don't play frisbee with your dog with them, they'll last yearrrrrrs. I've had them for 2 years out in the hot Northern California sun/heat under my tomatoes and pepper plants and no fading or cracking has happened to them. I assume at SOME point they will give out, but I don't see that happening anytime soon to mine.I was buying the crappy clear plastic flimsy ones from the garden section at the store every year and after calculating the cost of buying them every year, it's actually cheaper to bite the bullet and buy these sturdy ones ONCE and not have to think about it for a couple of years (at least).Plus, the clear ones were a constant pain in the @ss. They would break almost immediately. The dog would accidentally step on it: broken. I would accidentally "kick" it when i'm walking up to it: Broken. A ball would land on it: broken. And forget about sliding them around on the ground to try to move your plants around, that's impossible with the clear flimsy ones.These green ones: no problem. I've ran into them, kicked them, and accidentally stepped on them many times and none have broken. Sure, if you put ALL your weight on the sides, or flipped it upside down and stood on it, it's going to break. but it's not made for that. The point is that they're not going to break accidentally if you're just using them how they're intended: sitting under a pot to catch the water.These are worth the money.

Lasts forever, easy to clean, holds water drainage, works for 3 gallon pots
I grow a number of veggies and herbs in my basement, and bought the first set of these saucers well over 2 years ago for 3 gallon pots. Prior to getting these saucers, I had pots in trays, 3 pots per tray. This was cumbersome and made moving plants difficult.I love these saucers, and for the number of plants I have, I have since ordered 2 more sets of 10. The interior bottom of the saucer is 10" and at the top of the saucer it is 11 1/2". These saucers are 1 1/2" deep, so they hold a bit of water before they overflow. Since my 3 gallon pots are 9" at the bottom, this leaves room for water to collect and also makes it easy for me to drain excess water if I need to.I generally water until I see some water draining into the saucer. The water in the saucer is usually absorbed by the soil, but I don't leave it any longer than overnight. At any rate, I think these saucers will last for years. They are very sturdy and easy to clean. If I ever need more, I would definitely buy this brand.I hope this review was helpful for you.

Great product more rugged than others I have tried
Great product more rugged than others I have tried, use in container gardening. Own the next larger size as well has survived two years in direct Florida sunlight without any noticeable effects. Hasn't become brittle or cracked. Can add more water for plant to use while your at work than you can with clay under liners etc.Update,So nearly 6 yrs after buying these I thought I would provide an update. So after daily use in year round weather I am surprised to report that they still work as well as when they were new.The green has faded to a more light pale green color, but none of the 10" saucers have become brittle or broken. I use these primarily outside in full sun on a 2nd story wood deck. These work exceptionally well with appropriately sized cloth bags. I cannot keep soil from drying out in summer temps without using these.The saucers also work well with any other container that fit their 10" dimension. Depending on the season I have up to 40 of these going at a time. During change of seasons I get kinda lazy, I move my containers to follow the sun. So I just slide these across the wood deck with the pots in them, the bottom surface does get scuffed up a bit but so far none of them are showing any signs of wearing through.These have been a tremendous value...I have bought a bunch of highly rated garden products over the years and most of them have been a disappointment. (looking at you hoses & shears) . There is a fair bit of expense in setting up a container garden its nice to find products that last.

Solid
These are solid. Excellent quality. Not much to say beyond that.

Little on the flimsy side
Worked for my application just fine. My only issue, which is not a big one, is these saucers are just a little on the flimsy side.Reasonably priced.

Good fit for a 7 pound fabric pot
The media could not be loaded. I bought these saucers for the 7 gallon fabric pots which are 14" wide at the bottom. These saucers are 16" wide at the bottom, and 18" wide at the rim. This means I get a 2" area to catch the water run off to improve hydration of the plants.The saucers are made out of heavy duty plastic. The plastic has a little bit of give, but the saucers are sturdy. For example, I can lift a saucer with water without the saucer flexing under the weight and spilling.These saucers came in a pack of 10, which works out to be just under $3 per saucer. When shopping for saucers be on a lookup for the number of saucers included in each item, I almost bought what I thought was a bargain but luckily noticed a review that mentioned that only one saucer was included making that plastic saucer cost around $20!Ali Julia review

12 inch Saucer. Pricey for what they are but very nice quality.
These were a hard size to find in something built to be reusable & these guys just deliver. Very nice solid saucers, not cheap, but certainly deliver some decent quality for the money. Would buy again

Best price online or in stores
Nice and sturdy, but flexible enough that I dont have to worry about them cracking. Works great with my 16in pot elevators. Best price I could find in store or online. Less than $6 a tray. very happy with these

Saucers
I thought the saucers were 6"... Well they are not, they are . 7 and a 1/2 inches, round, they way too big for what I need them for. What a disappointment, when I got them. Your advertisement is so wrong.. Now what do I do with all those saucers ? Any suggestions !!!
