What Customers Are Saying
The product is generally well-received, with users finding it easy to install, program, and use. It is praised for its simple and affordable design, providing good value. Many report the timer works reliably and effectively controls their sprinkler systems. However, some have experienced issues like failure after a year, improper station control, or confusing instructions. Reliability and longevity appear inconsistent, and the instructions could be improved. Customers should carefully consider their needs and be prepared to potentially replace the timer if it fails prematurely.

It's a nice water timer. But we had to return it because the one we already had was functioning. The problem with our water system was in some other area. But we have the same water timer in right now and it works great

Don't buy
Would Not RecommendI had one of these many years ago that was wonderful. In the last three years, I have had three. The first one I could not get it to turn off. The second and third ones come on at odd times and run all zones at the same time. Too bad the newer models are not like the older ones. I am switching to Rainbird.

Works well, economical
Would RecommendThis timer was as described. It was easy to program and easy to install. The holes for attaching it to the wall could use some better design. There are two screw holes in the cover, and in order to remove the cover, you need to remove both of those screws which can be irritating. However, this does not hamper the function of the timer in any way.
Great product. Replacing a existing one.
