Would RecommendWe have this hose timer on a deck planter drip system. Just set it and forget it! This timer works as advertised. Have had it a couple of weeks now and it works great.

Does not keep time
Would Not RecommendI’ve had this for two months. At first it worked great, then it stopped keeping time & comes on at random times throughout the day and night. Battery change did not help. Last night I turned it on manually and set it to run 30 minutes (which usually works fine) and luckily I looked outside before I went to bed because it never shut off. It also has a very abrupt turn on/off sound (I’ve seen it referred to as “water valve hammer”) that you can hear anywhere in the house. I’m done with it & will b...

The hose knows!
Would RecommendActually, the hose remains fairly ignorant; it's the timer that "knows" what to do. So simple a child could program it; as I pre-geezer, I must truthfully say, that it is so simple even we age-enhanced humans can set it. It fit my needs: dictating to one hose when to come on and for how long.

Works well.
Would RecommendI’ve just started using this timer to control my soaker hose and so far it’s working well. It was easy to set and is accurate both in frequency and duration.

Good idea but terrible implementation.
Would Not RecommendThis hose-end timer is easy to program but really unusable because it must be mounted almost perfectly level or it continually resets itself and must be reprogrammed. The instructions tell you it must be mounted level and not cant significantly to the left or right. This appears to be an issue because the battery mounting pack just slips into a socket, and if anything moves it loses connection which causes the timer to reset itself and lose all of the programmed settings you have carefully put...

Great timer!
Would RecommendThis timer is easy to install and easy to program. I have two of them and they both consistently turn the water on and off at the set times. And I don't see any water leaking where they're connected to the spigot. I'm very pleased with my purchase.
