5.0 out of 5 starsTakes the guess work out of watering
By Alan Rivière on August 10, 2014
Verified Purchase
Note: This review is on the Etekcity Indoor/Outdoor Moisture Sensor Meter. Amazon is lumping reviews on seven different meters together. That can be confusing to shoppers.

This moisture meter takes the guess work out of watering. The user inserts the probe into the soil and the red needle moves into one of three zones: DRY, MOIST, and WET. No battery is necessary. It works well. The meter itself measures 2 inches wide, 3-1/4 inches tall and 1-3/8 inches thick. The probe is about 7-9/16 inches long. It is ideal for use with indoor potted plants. It can be used for outdoor plants too. I have a word of advice for shoppers who want to so: Do not use the probe to stab the soil like a stake. It will not last long. Use a metal stake to make a hole in the soil and insert the probe into the hole. A long Philips screwdriver will do.

5.0 out of 5 starsBroke after 10 minutes, but seller replaced it for me
By Robert X. on June 18, 2013
Verified Purchase
This is probably the same moisture meter as the other ones sold on Amazon that have the same look, but Etekcity put its label on it and give it a brand. The probe is a copper tube with a lead tip. When the soil is moist, the moisture in the soil is the electrolyte, and the lead and the copper are the electrode, which together make a lead/copper battery. The voltage drives the current meter and gives a reading. Apparently, the more moist the soil is, the higher the current is.

After receiving the meter, I was excited to poke around in the yard and see the dial turn. However, after poking five holes in the soil, the lead tip broke off. I was so sad to see only the copper tube without the lead tip when I withdrew the probe from the ground. I couldn't find the lead tip because it was buried in the soil.

This is either a design flaw or a manufacturing flaw in the product, but the lead tip is attached to the copper tube only through a plastic ring. I didn't expect it to break so quickly, so I am disappointed. Seven dollars wasted.

UPDATE 07/20/2013:
After I posted the above with one star, Etekcity sent me an email and told me they can replace the meter for me. A few days later, a padded envelope arrived. Unfortunately, the probe was broken during shipping. I wrote to Etekcity, so they send me another one in a hard box quickly. That level of service really surpassed my expectations because the item was only seven bucks. Only a few days before, I just lost my dispute resolution at Ebay. A $40 cell phone part that I ordered on Ebay was lost in the mail. After 15+ emails, I simply gave up and admit my bad luck with Ebay.

After learning my lesson from the first meter, this time I use a screw driver to poke a hole on the ground before I insert the meter's probe.Read more ›

5.0 out of 5 starsGreat tool for planters
By N. Brooks on February 5, 2014
Verified Purchase
I've had several of these over the years and then Walmart stopped carrying them. I was glad to find them on Amazon and at a fair price. They work great for potted plants as well as in ground. Calif. in drought mode, so will be testing plants frequently and watering very conservatively.

5.0 out of 5 starsDoes it's job
By Necessary Leisure on May 24, 2014

No more guessing. This piece of equipment does its job; just push it into the soil and gauge senses the moisture saturation. It only takes a couple of seconds.

5.0 out of 5 starsPerfect
By Mitch Flores on May 16, 2014
Verified Purchase
This is such a simple and easy to use design, I love it.

As an engineer, that is what I look for in products. The chance of this ever failing is very slim. It has an instantaneous response and doesn't need any batteries. A great buy!

1.0 out of 5 starsOK for a disposable unit that lasts but a short time
By Keith on September 19, 2015
Verified Purchase
Works great! For an entire week!! I've bought three of these (yes, I'm slow on the uptake but two were differently branded but apparently made at the same place in China). All failed quickly due to the tip coming off in the ground.

5.0 out of 5 starsworks great! must have
By Vinni on March 30, 2015
Verified Purchase
This product works as intended. I have had it for months without a single issue. I feel that some customers experience problems with theirs because they may be rough with it or may just have received a semi-faulty product, which happens and is understandable. I received a good product that works well.

I would be sure to pull out the probe holding it by the probe itself. I say this because I read some people pull out the probe holding it by the top plastic meter part and it pulls off the probe. So just instead of pulling it by the cheap part, just pull it out by the metal probe itself.

This product works well and is a must have for reading the moisture level in any plants to gauge if it needs to be water yet or not.

Pros:
No batteries required
Measures moisture level
Long probe
Easy to read meter
Hasn't broke, just be careful with it if you feel it may break

Cons:
The meter part feels cheaply made, but has stayed together and works 100%
I have seen other reviews that some have experiences theirs breaking one way or another - just contact the seller

Overall, it's inexpensive and works great, and sometimes one may receive a faulty one, but then just contact the seller. This is a must have for anyone with a green thumb!

4.0 out of 5 starsWorks pretty good
By BldgDr on April 19, 2014

This meter works pretty good. Seems to be a bit high on the reading though. I have one in a poinsettia pot. The poinsettia starts to droop from lack of water long before the meter says it needs watering.
