What Customers Are Saying
The Miracle-Gro Garden Feeder appears to have mixed reviews. While some customers report excellent results, easy use, and great convenience, many others have experienced significant issues with leaking, inconsistent fertilizer dispensing, and poor quality and durability. When the feeder works as intended, customers appreciate the ease of use and the results it produces, but the high number of complaints about reliability and functionality suggest the product may need design and manufacturing improvements to address the common problems.
Customer review summary generated by AI, including incentivized reviews.Not as Flexible as the Older Style
The older style allowed the spray head to be unscrewed and a watering wand or, for unattended use, a hose and sprinkler to be attached. The present unit does not have that feature.

Doesn't Work
Would Not RecommendTakes a VERY longtime toto fill using many, many gallons of water in the process and then never quite dispenses any blue water fertilizer mix, just more clear water with an occasional spot of blue in it. Working with 63 lbs. of water pressure at hose end. No clogs in feeder. Just plain old doesn't work.

Handle is too large for a woman
Would Not RecommendWhoever designed the newer style feeders had to be a man with big hands. The older style worked much better for a normal woman's size hand. The handle is too fat! Plus, I cannot use my garden wand with the newer feeder. I will not purchase these again.

I want the old style back. I want to be able to use my rain wand attachment instead of this awful sprayer. Plus the water shutoff is super chintzy compared to the old twist switch.

Jar design fail! Lid excellent design!
Would Not RecommendI bought this and used it once and loved it, the second time I used it the side seam came unsealed and is no longer usable. Why would the jar be changed from no seams to one that doesn’t hold a seal?

Do not recommend!
Would Not RecommendWould have given zero stars if I could have. All it did was leak from where it attaches to the hose. New hose, washer in place, plastic removed from the jar. Hose works fine with other attachments. This also did not dispense any of the feed. I threw the whole thing away. I’m soaking wet and regretting my purchase.

Terrible product
Would Not RecommendAs many have said product simply doesn't work. It leaks terribly and after 22 minutes the unit is still full of plant food. None of the product was transferred to my plants. Product is not worthy of the Miracle Grow name !

Works great if you can follow instructions!
Very surprised at how easy this sprayer is to use AND how confused some people can get, SMH! Follow the directions written on the spray bottle, easy. Let the bottle fill then point at intend plant, simple. No leaks, with a good hose, and no bright blue stream b/c the food is water soluble, straightforward. The contents disappear as you spray. I’ve had great results!!

Unusable because of leaking connector
Would Not RecommendAs many other reviews report, the feeder leaks (sprays actually) from the yellow hose connector on the feeder handle side, NOT on the hose side. Unusable!

Would Not RecommendThis thing is a joke. It does not work. The instructions do not even make sense. I am stunned they are allowed to sell such an inferior product. Do not waste your money.

Waste of money.
Would Not RecommendI'm writing this review to firmly support all the one-star reviews. I purchased this product with high expectations due to its association with Miracle-Gro, but it has proven to be utterly worthless. After running it for 10 to 12 minutes, even after replacing the gaskets and using the fertilizer it came with alongside three bags of pre-packed fertilizer, the sprayer merely sputtered. It never delivered a solid blue stream when using plant food. I followed several customer service recommendations...

Don’t buy
Would Not RecommendNo matter how long I water, half of the fertilizer is left in the container. I let it run for 45 minutes and there was still half left.

Really very disappointing
Product won't work if I can't get it out of the bottle! I bought the starter kit and have not been able to use cause the hand-held sprayer does not work. Spent much too much time trying to get it to work.

Did not work as expected
Would Not RecommendAs with other reviews, the feeder did not absorb the granules in the bottom of the feeder. My plants were watered but not fed.

poor design
I have had three miracle glow feeders and each one leakes from the yellow attchment to the hose. I practically have to weaar a wet suit. So very frustrating.

It’s a disappointment
Would Not RecommendYes I thought I was doing something wrong so I looked for directions. No directions. Chamber started filling up when I pulled the trigger, but no miracle grow came out. It just stayed in the container. My lawn has really been hydrated but not fertilized. I wanted to give a better review but I really can’t. Maybe something is missing in construction? Idk.

Leaks
Would Not RecommendI love miracle grow but I hate their sprayers. I’m on my third. They all leak. I’m soaking wet by the time I’m done fertilizing all my flowers. I’m looking for something that doesn’t leak.
