These helped keep my veggie garden decently watered while I was up North. I purchased them as they were cheap ($32.99 CAD) and there was a good amount of them.
For my larger plants I used 2-3 of them per planter, for the smaller ones I could get away with just 1. I filled the bulbs with water up until the stem portion and inserted them on an angle to ensure they wouldn't pour out all at once. My plants were still a bit wilted as they are in direct sunlight for the majority of the day however without these I think they would have looked much worse.
That being said, they are not the "prettiest" looking bulbs as they are plastic. Also, as other reviewers mentioned, they dent very easily and once dented don't go back in form. The attached pictures are the bulbs directly after I removed them from the planters. They served their purpose though, so I will keep them.
They got the job done (despite not being the best looking)
