Like many other who have reviewed the terra cotta watering spike system, I too have had problems with breakage. I either pushed the spike into the ground with the bottle already on the spike or when the bottle was empty and I went to refill, the bottle was stuck on the spike. As others have noted - push the watering spike into the ground or pot/bag before adding the filled wine bottle. Also I have found that a red wine bottle has a different shape with a long neck that fits the spike a little better than a white wine bottle and does not get stuck. Also remember that the spike is absorbing water so it will "shrink" when it is dry and be easier to remove from the bottle. One of my family members also has good luck using larger wine bottles 1 liter or larger versus 750 ml.

These watering spikes work very well! They saved the plants in my patio pots during a drought while I was on vacation and could not water them. Simple to use, reusable, and effective. I'm purchasing a second set of them I like them so well.

I purchased a set of these spikes to see how they would work. They are awesome. Allow just enough water but we live in a very hot climate and the water heats up so when we are gone I will have to move the plants to a shady area. I am ordering a second set for my potted cactus.

I bought quite a few a few years ago and they are in use every summer in my planters. There was one broken on arrival but I can still use it. I have broken the tops of a few, but only when carelessly pushing on the bottle rather than gently turning the clay piece into the soil to the correct level first. It seems the price has gone up since I bought mine; seems like a lot for a piece of clay, but my plants do very well with these even if we leave for a few days.

I was forever losing my potted plants to lack of water...These spikes have saved me from my husband's wrath and have saved my plants...just insert add the bottle of water and refill when needed...they have made my life easier. I have them in all of my pots now.

IN THEORY THESE SOUND GREAT THEY WORK FOR A BIT. HOWEVER THEY ALSO BREAK VERY EASILY AND I HAVE ALREADY HAD THREE BREAK OUT OF TWO BOXES. I DON'T LOVE THESE AND HESITATE TO RECOMMEND THEM TO ANYONE ELSE
