    Customer Reviews

      A simple, yet efficient product.  A product that will last a life time, easy to use and it means you never need to buy seedling pots again.   Emma Pye

      Potting Great!  Paper pots all around, works like a dream, the dream I had making paper pots. x   marc

      Paper Potter is child's play  I got this gadget last winter and my 3 year old daughter helped me to make hundreds of paper pots for seedlings. She really enjoyed it as they were easy to make. It saved me buying small pots/plug trays and I was able to plant straight into ground without removing from pots first.   Elizabeth
