What Customers Are Saying
Customers praise the smart watering timer for intuitive setup, app-based control, and weather-aware scheduling that automates irrigation across multiple zones. Many highlight remote Wi-Fi management and convenient automation as major upgrades. However, several report persistent Bluetooth connectivity issues with limited range and frequent disconnections requiring app restarts. Some describe sudden failures after weeks or months, raising durability concerns, while others note plastic build quality issues. Despite these drawbacks, most customers find the automation features worthwhile and appreciate years of reliable operation when the system functions properly.

Would RecommendBluetooth function
Does not work
Would Not RecommendWorked great until it got wet. Not soaked but light natural rain. Screen fogged up and input toggles won’t operate as they should. For the price not worth the gamble.
Great unit
Would RecommendI was looking for a model which is a auto control sprinkler for my yard and it was a great product which has a Bluetooth connection. The proximity is pretty less but still it does the job where I can manually turn on the system and off if needed. Otherwise it's works on fully auto mode. Highly recommended the unit.
B-Hyve is THE BEST for smart irrigation
Would RecommendJust bought this product from Lowe's. It is great. I don't understand any negative reviews. Easy to pair with the hub that I had for my B-hyve Flood Sensors so that I can use via wifi/remote. Using at my vacation home so remote connectivity was a critical selling point. Very reasonable price (not much more than mechanical or digital timer and has manual functionality built in anyway) and very good quality (no water leaks/drips, easy set-up, good app control). Also have a B-Hyve XR irrigation ...
Great automated watering for above ground system
Would RecommendGreat product for automating above ground sprinklers! Just what I needed. Docked it one star because the ability to turn on one zone just for manual watering takes a few button pushes, thus a little inconvenient.

Season user of b-hyve timers
I have 8 single units in FL which operate great. They do eat batteries so operating 12 months plan on 3x per year changing batteries. This unit is supposed to be less power consuming so I'll update later. All in all ver dependable.

Great for large yards and multi-zone needs
Would RecommendSignificantly improved performance over the Gen 1 B-Hyve, with better WiFi and more ports
Great product
Would RecommendWe are happy with this timer. We can set a sprinkler to go off a few times per day which keeps my garden alive when we are away.
Read the instructions completely before starting.
Would RecommendEasy to set up and it works as promised. I like the fact that I can control it from anywhere.

Easy to use
Would RecommendThe product has been super easy to use and was easy to set up with both phone and directly on the device. It makes good seals without any leaking so far. I like that the program allows you to take photos to ad to each watering zone.

Essential for hot summers and late risers
Would RecommendThis device has become an essential for my summer gardening. I use the automatic watering function to soak my garden in the summer mornings before the withering heat. And as someone who has better things to do than stand there with a hose in hand, this device was excellent. I might have continued just letting the automatic watering program run, but with the heavy rains we get in Georgia, I recently added the Wi-Fi hub so that I don't have to remember to turn the program off during the wet weeks....
