I recieved a Daisy Cloner in December and have had a chance to try it out for a month. It Cost 50-60 with shipping in the US.
Holds eight cuttings while being small
It's rather quiet
It's easy clean and set up
The Daisy cloner is a round tub with a pump and three spray nozzles that are in a "T" shapped pvc. The pump is heavy, sit on the bottom with three rubber feet. It's easy to set up but takes a bit to get it to spray eavenly to all eight cups. It comes complete with everything, just put it together, plug it in, add water and cuttings. I had success on my first try. I took it appart and cleaned it and had more problems getting the spray to hit every cup. The pump really warms up the water.
Now that I have seen the unit I think I would be up to making a cloner like this. I tried to make an air stone type cloner and didn't have a lot of success do to my lack of patience.
Bottom line...it's a hobby cloner and it seems to fit my needs. I don't know what the pumps cost, but the price seemed a bit much for what I got.
