Are plastic self-watering pot sets worth it for indoor plants?

Verified-purchase reviewers and community members generally find budget plastic sets with drainage holes and bottom trays useful for indoor herbs and small-to-medium plants. The caveats reviewers raise: build quality is variable, some 'self-watering' claims are overstated (a few pots are really just bottom-watering trays), and at least one community note flagged a low third-party review-authenticity grade, so cross-check listings before buying in bulk.
