Such a cute idea but it’s so disappointing

- Reviewed in the United States on January 12, 2024Cool idea but I didn’t realize it didn’t have any seeds or soil.
- Reviewed in the United States on September 10, 2015Worked like a dream! Smaller than I expected (about 8-10 inches tall, including water base and 1.5 inches deep), but it worked perfectly in my class. The only thing I did was wrap additional paper around the sides to keep the light out... the black paper provided seemed to small to waste a trial on. Easy to knock over (learned that the hard way, lol), due to being only about 1.5 inches deep and 4-5 inches wide)... Despite what seems to be complaints I would totally buy this again, because it WORKS!
- Reviewed in the United States on August 6, 2019My son bought this for his Montessori classroom in honor of his 8th birthday. His classmates and teachers really enjoyed the experiment and were able to transfer the seedlings into the school garden.
I believe this will be a material they use for a number of years.
- Reviewed in the United States on August 21, 2023It's just the maze, and it's flimsy and frustrating to put and keep together. The black cover is just cardstock, and you're supposed to snap a piece of the top over it to hold it in place, but there isn't space for that, so you'll end up using tape to make some doors. The brown side of the maze lets enough sunlight in for the beans to be satisfied where they are. The covers for the top are not connected, they just sit there.
On top of all this, you provide your own seeds, cotton, and spoonfuls of potting or seed starting soil. I knew that going in, but my son found it weird since most gardening kits and terrariums provide at least a small packet of seeds and a baggie of soil or coir. If you're providing your own supplies, you could make a better, sturdier one with Lego.
- Reviewed in the United States on December 28, 2024Much smaller than I thought it would be and the bean didn’t grow. It was a disappointment.
Will try again by having it start growing in another container and then put it in after.
- Reviewed in the United States on February 18, 2021Such a great gift. It’s messy though. Nothing wrong with that, it’s expected when you have an activity involving soil
- Reviewed in the United States on November 23, 2016This product was a ton of fun for my 4th grade students... They were all able to assemble it and plant their bean seeds.. 2 of the 8 samples made it to the top of the maze.. :)

Images in this review - Reviewed in the United States on February 1, 2023I really wanted to like this, which i bought to do with my 2 yr old granddaughter who LOVES plants! I bought used which came with no seeds, not deal breaker as i had prepared for this. But this totally reminds me of some junk plant project you'd find at a dollar store. Which is not worth much more than $1. Price aside-the assembled of this plastic junk was enough for me to want to return it. There is no clear assembly instructions which by looking at it unpackaged didnt seem difficult but let me tell you….nothing seems to really fit or stay. I had to put it aside & will try again another day. For now it just sits in the “to do” pile :(
