Present for the Husband
It was bought as a present for the Husband. He’s not used it yet but looks like a very good product.

A Great Product! Easy to use and fun to watch the sprouting process.
A great little product! Do buy really fresh sprouting mix sold in a sealed bag as this really makes a difference. If the sprouting mix you use has been in your cupboard a while these may produce disappointing results when sprouted. The above photo is 2-3 days of sprouting time and already the sproutings are ready to use fresh in a salad or added to a wrap, or stir-fried. The seeds had already started to sprout tiny shoots by the evening of the first day! Personally I would wait two more days if you can till the sproutings produce small green tips by which time the seeds and beans will be more tender. Don’t leave them sprouting for more than a week as they start to deteriorate then. Thoroughly rinse the sproutings twice a day (still in their tray) and drain by slightly tipping the tray for the water to run out and avoid handling the sproutings as this may leave bacteria on the food and lead to mildew in which case you must throw the whole batch away for health safety reasons. Rinse thoroughly before consuming? Don’t use more seeds than enough to cover the tray base plus a little bit more. If your house is cold they may take just a little longer to start sprouting.I suggest you wash the trays in tepid water and dishwashing detergent, as hot water will distort the plastic trays and they may become difficult to seat evenly in the trays in the base and second layer. I love this product and can recommend. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Works a treat, sturdy & simple.
I wanted to start sprouting and opted for this product. I'm not disappointed at all. It looked smaller than I'd imagined, but it's actually a great size for growing a few handfuls of sprouts at a time.There is a base layer for water collection, two sprouting tiers and a top lid. It's easy to separate when rinsing the sprouts twice daily. Then you pour in the clean water over the perforated lid and it trickles down through the sprouting tiers.I disagree with some reviewers who state it isn't sturdy enough. It's very robust (I don't know what they were doing with theirs!).So far, I've successfully sprouted: pumpkin seeds, mung beans / beansprouts (really well !!!), peanuts and chickpeas.I would highly recommend this and would happily purchase again.

Good for sprouting
Plastic finish could be smoother - which would make trays quicker to stack and easier to keep clean

The measurements
I was expecting a larger sprouter, but it is easy to use

Seed sprouter which fits on window sill
I really like this product. It has two compartments so I can grow two types of seeds or more seeds of one type. The size is perfect, because it fits on my window sill. If you want to grow seeds for more people I would recommend bigger seed sprouter.

Nice design.
Serves the purpose, seeds doesn't go through the opening, so they drain well, I'm sprouting broccoli seeds and it works fine. Easy to clean and maintain. Looks good on windowsill. Not the cheapest, but works better than mason jars.

Not the best available
Having bought two of these GARDENS ALIVE! Two-Tiered Seed Sprouters.I feel I have to leave a Negative Comment, Although both the Sprouters do the job of Sprouting Seeds really well, the products is not of the best quality.The plastic containers are very Brittle and Crack or Split Very, Very Easily.I now Wish I had Bought a Differant Make.
