Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Victorio VKP1013 Round Three-Tray Kitchen Seed Sprouter
Customer Review: Great...can I get extra trays?
Summary: 4 Stars
I have had this for about 4 years and have used it quite a few times. I have never had a problem with mold, mildew, slime or the water siphoning correctly. You should add water once a day and dump it once it gets to the bottom tray. I always throw the used tray in the dishwasher beofre starting it with new seeds.
I am preparing to improve my diet to eat mostly raw food and would like to eat a lot more sprouts. This unit is a little small for the sprouting needs of a large family. I wish I could get extra trays for it. But it is so cheap, I guess I could just buy a second unit.
Customer Review: pretty good
Summary: 4 Stars
good little try, i would change a couple of things...
they aren't quite tall enough.
the top tank isn't really necessary as you could just as well fill the top tray with water, if you had a lid.
the siphon is pretty ingenious, but the seeds slip under it, and you have to clear it a couple of times before they start growing, or it gets really stuck in place, and clogged.
the alfalfa that it comes with all germinated quickly and gave tasty sprouts.
all in all better than jars or bags, I would say, but it could use a little improvent.
Customer Review: Good European style sprouter
Summary: 4 Stars
This is s nice European style humidity tray sprouter with some caveats. There will be water left over after the grooved trays drain. This is part of the design. I have had zero mildew problems and I use this thing all the time. This sprouter is great for home use, but a bit cumbersome at work. Tray juggling is a bit of a chore, but the capacity is generous. Smaller seeds like alfalfa tend to get stuck in the drain holes. Lentils love this sprouter! The unit is easy to clean and is very sturdy. I would recommend this sprouter to anyone.Customer Review: Great product, easy to use
Summary: 4 Stars
It's easy to use this to grow sprouts. The only critique I have is the lid splits easily if you try to take it off without paying attention. Otherwise, we're having a lot of fun experimenting with different seeds and seeing how they sprout. We tried mung beans which produced big sprouts with a strong flavor, good for stir fry. We didn't much like lentils, but alfalfa, which came with the sprouter, was really good.Customer Review: Nice counter top sprouter
Summary: 4 Stars
I purchased this at the suggestion of my aunt. It works pretty well most of the time. I've had issues where the siphons don't work quite right and need to be helped along. Also, I had to use a toothpick a few times to dislodge alfalfa sprouts from the hole the siphon sits on but that problem seems to have stopped. Does a great job even when I forget to water it twice a day as instructed.
