PLANT POT 191 200x195mm: Outdoor Planter Size and Drainage FAQ
Answers to the practical questions about the PLANT POT 191 200x195mm: its real dimensions, where to place it outdoors, how drainage works, and how to care for the ceramic.
Size and placement questions
What are the actual dimensions of the PLANT POT 191 200x195mm?
The supplied specifications list W200 x H195 mm and a weight of approximately 2300 g. Because it is ceramics, the size and shape may vary slightly due to manufacturing characteristics, so treat those figures as nominal rather than exact.
Is this pot a good size for a patio or balcony?
At W200 x H195 mm it is a compact floor or low-table pot rather than a large statement planter. That makes it easy to group several pots on a patio, flank a doorway, or place beside outdoor seating without dominating the space. If you need a taller or wider planter, check the full Kinto range for larger sizes.
Where should I place the PLANT POT 191 outdoors?
Choose a stable, level surface that is not wobbly or tilted, because the pot may tip over on an unstable base. When you need to move it, lift it rather than dragging it; friction from dragging can damage the floor or the surface it sits on.

Drainage and saucer questions
Does the PLANT POT 191 have a drainage hole?
The supplied information refers to a hole in the bottom of the pot and notes that the pot and saucer may become damp because of the material's breathability and water permeability. So the pot is designed with drainage in mind, but the full record does not describe the hole's diameter or flow rate.
How should I use a saucer with this pot?
When using the pot indoors, be sure to use a saucer. Before placing the pot on the saucer, make sure all water has drained out of the hole in the bottom of the pot so that water does not accumulate in the saucer.
Can the pot and saucer get damp on the outside?
Yes. Because of the ceramic's excellent breathability and water permeability, the pot and saucer may become damp, so be careful when placing them on furniture or other moisture-sensitive surfaces. Outdoors this is less of a concern, but on a wooden patio table or painted ledge it is worth keeping in mind.
Ceramic care and appearance questions
Why does the surface look uneven or burnt?
Variations in texture, such as uneven glaze color and luster, are normal for this ceramic. A burnt appearance on the surface is a phenomenon called kiln change that occurs during firing and is unique to ceramics. Wrinkle-like streaks may also be seen on the surface of the material. These are firing characteristics, not defects.
Will the pot stain or show marks from soil and water?
Due to the characteristics of the material, components such as chlorine contained in the water and the color of the soil may seep out onto the surface of the pot. This is a known behavior of the material rather than a sign of damage.
How should I move and store the pot?
Do not drag the product when moving it, as friction may damage the floor or other surfaces it is in contact with. Lift it instead. The supplied information does not include stacking or winter-storage instructions, so avoid assuming the pot can be left out in freezing conditions without checking with Kinto.
