Rise Gardens support made me feel so confident in my purchase! I had so many questions before I finally decided to order my Rise Garden and Kayelyn was so kind to answer each of them quickly and in-depth. It made me feel incredibly confident that even if there are hiccups in my hydroponic journey, their support team will be there to help me along the way. I can't wait to set it up and start growing! I'll try to post updates on YouTube and social to help anyone else who is choosing between different systems and starting indoor gardening for the first time.

I've purchased 3 rise gardens and a ton… I've purchased 3 rise gardens and a ton of seed pods within a two week period. Other than the gardens themselves being a bit pricy, I am very pleased with the overall experience. Everything shipped faster than anticipated. Everything works as expected. Some of the documentation has minor grammatical errors which can cause confusion for a newbie gardener like myself but I am thankful that they include documents with tips and guidance. I've personally worked for many start-ups and I am really surprised by the level of detail wether it's user guides, barcodes for easy setup or the graphics which are unique to each set of seeds/pods. So far I really like RG as a brand. From an NPS perspective I would definitely be a promoter (so far)

Gamble, but be prepared to lose. Text of our BBB complaint: After 3 years of researching to find the best home hydroponic growing system, we settled on Rise Gardens. They have a very active social media presence and a flashy website announcing a big 20% off sale almost constantly. While navigating their website, we accidentally hit submit on an order for a smaller garden than intended. Customer service was contacted IMMEDIATELY and the order was noted as cancelled. We then submitted the correct order. Nothing whatsoever is indicated about backorders or unavailability, and the social media ads remain relentless as if this thing is available. Soon after, we receive a shipment of the items from that first, officially cancelled order. A simple mistake- we are reasonable- but then began our issues. It took over a week to get a return label for that item. There is NO phone number to call (an internet search eventually yields a number that goes direct to voicemail) and what seems like foreign customer service (chat-based) could not seem to get us a return label without days of us hassling them. Finally we got a label and Fed Ex picked up the incorrect order. Since then we have been waiting for our actual order with no communication about it unless we pester the chat customer service...our order was placed on 2/19, again with NO MENTION of a delay or a backorder. As reasonable people, we are understanding about anything as long as there is communication. We've been told "in a week or two" a couple times...meanwhile they have our money- around $1500. This is clearly an issue for other customers as there have been some quite hearty discussions going on in the Rise Gardens Facebook community within the past week about this. People are all having the same issue as us- waiting for paid orders for months and having little to no communication. We feel fleeced. It's not the delay, it's that the company has said NOTHING publicly about delays after appearing to have plenty of stock. This is shady at best, fraudulent at worst. Unacceptable. They are deleting Instagram comments about this issue, btw. What a complete and total disappointment. Finally got most of our refund- will be giving our business to Gardyn instead. This does not bode well for company longevity, getting parts, etc.

Customer service is non-existent Customer service is non-existent. I've tried multiple times to ask a question about the pH reader you have in your videos and never even gotten through for an answer. I've tried using your QR code on the bottles of supplement and they don't work, at all, neither bottle. You have a good product, do a good job of selling it, and a really poor job of giving information to your customers.

Happy but not so happy. Receiving my order was a bit of a nightmare. I had about 5 things missing. And they would send me the replacements but sometimes forgetting twice some items. So it took forever to get the garden assembled and finally working. Customer service did send me what ever I needed. I was extremely confused on how to grow the seeds, work the garden and clean it. I think those instructions could be WAY better and more user friendly.
