Looks pathetic and cat won't touch it!
This grew very sparsely, really pathetic. Cat hasn't gone near it.....

Always Excellent
I've had about 6 of these with my membership points. It's always grown as per the photos and the cats have loved it. It generally lasts a couple of weeks and the bowl is great for water or biscuits.

Score is for bowl, not grass
I keep buying these for the bowl, as it's not a bad price for a nice bowl for her wet food. Saying that, it does seem to get tiny chips in the rim for some reason - I only wash it with hot water and a washing up brush. Not that that really makes any difference in daily use.

Grows well but cats not interested
The grass grows really well and kept well for me (I planted it in a normal pot after it sprouted). I can see the cats nibbled on a couple of leaves, but the seem to prefer my other houseplants.

Grass seed grew well in en-suite window
Having read previous reviews, I wasn't sure if the grass would grow, but I wanted a new bowl anyway, and liked this one.
I planted and watered the seeds, then I placed the bowl in my en-suite window. I was amazed at how well the grass seed grew within 10 days. When it was around 2" tall I moved the grass to the lounge play area for my cats. Only 1 cat showed a little interest and nibbled at 2 blades of grass. Within a couple of day the grass went limp and turned brown - I guess this is because I moved it.
My cats are are indoor cats, so they are not used to eating grass. They may have shown more interest it if it hadn't have died so quickly. Like most plants, I suspect the change in the environment contributed to it dying so quickly.
If I purchase another one, I will be inclined to grow the grass seeds in the lounge window next time, where the cats are allowed. They can then investigate and see the grass grow, and hopefully eat some before it dies.

Grew well, brown within a week
This grass grew really well. We planted it one Saturday, put it in the living room window, and it was 6 inches tall and vibrant green two weeks later. A week after that, it's already turned brown and limp, and it's never been used. KitKat sniffed at it when we showed it to her, and has sniffed around it a couple of times since, but hasn't show much interest otherwise (though I read they only eat grass if they feel the need to vomit, so that's probably a good thing). I was very pleased with this purchase at first, but I'd hoped it would last much longer. As it is, I'm not sure whether to bother with replacement seeds, so we might just have a new bowl instead.

Very good, cat loves it
I got one of these with my Zooplus points.My cat likes me to feed him grass, a blade at a time, he has trouble pulling it out of a pot. Knowing that the grass I had growing in the garden would be dying off for winter I ensured this was growing in good time. As I have never had much luck with getting him to eat specially grown indoor grass before I put the bowl outdoors once the shoots had grown as the fresh air makes a difference.
It has been a success, I still have to feed it to him but he enjoys it, and also likes to bury his face in the dish.
If you find your cat isn't keen on it, try putting outdoors for a few days but keep it out of the rain.

Kitten adores this!
I've had this product for around a month now, my kitten chews at it more than 5 times a day and it's still alive!
She's an indoor cat so I was told letting her have something like this to chew on would aid her digestion etc and I believe it has.
I would recommend this product to anyone and have done to friends with indoor cats. It did take a while to set off growing and there are no instructions so I just added the sachet to soil and within a week I had a nice crop.
Fantastic product!

Great bowl but cat won't touch the grass!
My cat - a 7 year old Burmilla - was forever eating the grass in my garden but he'd stopped recently, so I thought I'd treat him to this item when it was in the sale. The ceramic bowl is gorgeous - really nice and wide but not too deep, and has stylish cat design on it - and I'm now using it as a water bowl. And growing the grass was easy and very quick (basically tip the entire pack of grass and some sort of soil equivalent) and water. You'll have a good crop within a few days. However, my cat won't touch it. Showed no interest whatsoever. He can be fussy, so I gave to a friend for her cat, but they're not interested either! Shame as I know it's good for them but sadly been a waste of effort...

Yes, it stinks! And it wouldn't go away.
The fertiliser in the packet smelled pretty disgusting. So I put the tray outside on the balcony to let it sprout. The blowflies came by the dozens. Some of the seeds sprouted, some didn’t. But since there’s no soil included, the tray dries out really quickly. Maybe it would have worked if I’d watered it 2-3 times a day or if it hadn’t been 28 degrees outside. But as it was, the whole thing quickly turned into a stinky, dying mess. We’re now using the tray as a food bowl.

I do not recommend
The grass grew terribly, it barely sprouted at all. The bowl itself might come in handy for something else, but the grass gets 0 points from me.

Smells unbelievably bad
The house smelled so bad, I thought there was a dead animal somewhere. You could even smell it out in the garden. Only a few blades grew, and they were all over the place with no order. I wouldn't recommend it. You'd be better off doing a DIY project yourself.

Excellent
I bought it with gift points. The bowl is very nice. The shoots sprouted within a few days. Many people wrote that theirs went mouldy, but from the start I only sprayed it—at first twice a day—because I’ve had bad experiences with other brands of cat grass, so that’s why I spray it now.
This way it works perfectly, my cats love it. I can recommend it. :)

Do not use as is
I love this bowl, but you shouldn't use it as is, hence my rating of 4.
I must have 5 or 6 of them, the dish itself is worth keeping.
As for the grass, I plant the seeds and the substrate in a small planter with soil, not in the bowl.
Both parts are useful separately.

TRIXIE ceramic bowl with cat grass – bad choice
I’m not happy with the product. I read the reviews, but I was misled by the photos. I thought that since there were bad reviews, at least over the years they’d fixed the product. Nothing like that. There’s hardly any grass, but tiny bugs appeared. Honestly, it’s ready to be thrown away. My advice is not to buy it, even if you like how it looks. It’s better to get seeds and plant them yourself. There are better options here in the shop.

Terrible
The seeds rot even when the tray is in the sun, and it attracts bugs and flies.

Grass didn’t sprout
The bowl is nice and we'll definitely use it, but not a single seed sprouted from the grass, so it's a big disappointment 😔

They don’t like it at all
Our cats decided they prefer regular grass instead of this. I almost lost my mind because I bought 2 pieces and they don’t want to eat it.

Not recommended – seeds didn’t sprout
I wouldn't recommend the cat grass. The seeds didn't sprout!
You can save your money.
The bowl is nice though.
