Default Superoot Air-pot ?!?!

Has anyone tried the Superoot Air-Pot before?
Here is a link to the parent company superoots.com.

I just bought two of the 10 gallon sized pots to try and over winter some of my alocasia, bananas, and other misc tropicals. In the spring, I plan on burying pot and all in the ground with a couple inches of sand around the outside of the pot. In the fall this would allow me to take a knife around the outside edge and cut any new roots allowing me to lift the pot, and allowing the center root mass to remain largely undisturbed. I don't think these would work good for a strong woody root system like that of a palm, but it might help for container grown palms.

So what are your feelings about these, good or bad?
