 Great DeviceJan 29, 2007
By David W. Tribbett
"theTribster"
I bought this device to keep 8 rather larges plants watered while I travel every month. I used two drippers per pot and left plenty of extra tubing between the plants. It worked great, really great. I've had to use it 5x so far and each time it worked perfectly.
I've tried several things in the past including other drip system as well as the 3 different kinds of watering spikes. Not of them worked as well or as easily as the Oasis. Highly recommend this.

 Not for hard waterOct 28, 2008
By Walter R. Davis
I have had the Oasis for three years and have tried to use it three times - the first time it worked perfectly. The second time I came home to dead plants! It seems that the valve can get stuck - the electronic timer drives a green coil (electro magnet) that opens and closes the water valve. If it is working you can hear it make a "thunk" noise when you move the switch from off to 10. No thunk means the valve is stuck (assumes a new battery). The green coil can be pulled off by removing the machines bottom (just pull it off) and unscrew the nut holding the coil to the valve. A strong magnet can then be moved along the valve to make it open and close. After I did this a few times I reassembled the machine and it is working again - but I don't trust it! I suspect the very hard water here in the Southwest is making the valve stick. Use distilled water or don't buy or buy a new one every year!

Plants live!May 27, 2005
By Wargun
After 30 days, all of my plants are alive and well. I can't believe it worked! It took a little time to set up but it worked as planned.
Well recommended!

Great watering solution - with caveatsMar 26, 2008
By W. werner
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.

Exactly What I NeededJul 31, 2008
By Mr.Mikey
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.
