Drain Drawer Pots: The Dream Home for Houseplants

Written by

Plant pots with a removable drawer that captures excess drainage during watering as well as starts and stops drainage on command.
Check on Kickstarter

The World’s First Plant Pot with a Built-in Removable Drawer & More

Our patented design uses a removable drawer that catches all drainage and keeps your plant safely elevated above excess water to avoid root rot. Now, you never have to move your plants to the sink for watering again, and never have to use those crusty, toxic drip trays.

Simply water your plant as normal, then take the drawer out afterward to discard the excess or use it on another plant! 

Start and Stop Drainage on Command

You now have the power to stop and start drainage on command so your plant can soak up just what it needs during each watering. Follow 3 easy steps:

Step 1: Stop Drainage During Watering

Push the drawer inward. This position stops drainage so your plant can soak up all it needs during each watering. Then, add water.

Step 2: Allow Drainage Again After Watering

Once done watering, pull the drawer forward in line with the rest of the Pot. This position allows drainage again.

Step 3: Discard Excess Water, Or Use It On Another Plant!

After a few minutes, take out the drawer to discard excess water or use it on another plant!

Color Options

We’ve crafted 7 vibrant color options—all with a matte finish great for any interior design: Sage Green, Sand, Terracotta, Pink, White, Blue, and Black 

A Side-Spout for Bottom Watering

With Drain Drawer Pots, you can water your plant directly onto the soil or you can use our removable side-spout to “bottom water” your plants without ever having to move the Pot! Bottom watering sends water directly to your plant’s roots, while keeping your top soil dry—so you can encourage roots to grow downward as well as avoid those pesty gnats that thrive in damp top soil!

Building Materials and Design

Made of Recycled Material + Fully Recyclable

Every Drain Drawer Pot is made of recycled materials and is fully recyclable.

UV-Resistant, Durable, Long-Lasting Materials

Every Drain Drawer Pot is made of drop-proof High-Density Polyethylene (“HDPE”), made to last years—decades, actually.  You’ll never have to worry about your Drain Drawer Pot shattering from a drop (we’ve tested it many times, sometimes intentionally, other times clumsily).  

Even better, our manufacturing process involves adding a UV-resistant compound to ensure your Pot remains strong, durable, and with vibrant color even when put outside in direct sun.

BPA Free

No Drain Drawer Pot contains bisphenol A (“BPA”), which is an industrial chemical associated with endocrine disorders, some cancers, cardiovascular disease, among other health issues. You’re safe to use Drain Drawer Pots for any plant—even herbs and other greens you’ll eat!

Protect Your Pets, and Keep Pests Away

The removable drawer hides excess drainage after watering so your pets can’t get into it. Feel safe keeping your Drain Drawer Pot on the floor, lower shelves, and anywhere else you want!  

And—unlike self-watering planters that are often a breeding ground for pests—our drawer ensures flies, mosquitos, and gnats don’t have access to standing water.

Kickstarter-Exclusive 6″ Size, Design, and Color Option

Our Kickstarter launch involves the all-new 6” Drain Drawer Pot. This Kickstarter-exclusive version differs in several ways from the 11” Pot that first started our business in 2023:

Kickstarter-Exclusive 6″ Size 

The dimensions of this Kickstarter-exclusive Drain Drawer Pot are 6 inches tall by 6 inches wide. By contrast, our original version stood at 11 inches tall and 8.5 inches wide. Now, you can fit a new spectrum of plants in new locations—like indoor greenhouse cabinets, floating shelves, nightstands, and so much more!

New, Removable Side-Spout for Bottom Watering

Our original 11” design had a permanent “chimney” attached to the exterior for bottom watering. But, based on customer feedback, this Kickstarter-exclusive 6” design implements an all-new removable side-spout that attaches to the inner portion of the Pot rather than the exterior. Now, this bottom-watering spout cleanly disappears behind your plant.

Rounded Exterior and Kickstarter-Exclusive Color Option

Aside from functional changes, this Kickstarter-exclusive 6” version has a revised exterior design when compared to our 11” original.  We’ve added a more rounded touch to the edges so that your new Pot will go great with any interior décor and furniture style.

 We’ve also added a Pink color available only on Kickstarter!

Re-Designed Removable Drawer

We packed our Kickstarter-exclusive 6” Drain Drawer Pot with new, patent-pending features for the removable drawer that differ from our original 11” design. This new 6” version has expanded drainage capacity because we eliminated the inner wall that existed in the removable drawer of our original 11” version. Even better, we created a patent-pending “post” design in the 6” version that creates a more secure seal to stop and start drainage on command during watering.

Re-Designed Basin

Unique to the new 6” size, we’ve redesigned the bottom of the Pot by implementing a downward, channeled slope so that gravity pushes all excess water to the drainage hole. You can rest assured that your plant will never sit in stagnant water.

About Us

We’re a small business based in Las Vegas, Nevada. Our guiding mission is to reduce plastic waste one Pot at a time! The idea behind our product jumped out from the frustration of constantly hauling our own house plants to a sink or bathtub for watering. We wanted to create something that let us water our plant right where it wants to be—standing proudly in front of a window. We hope that our invention makes your life as a plant parent easier, all while making our environment a cleaner and more sustainable place.
