Ratings & Reviews for Rain Bird 6 -Station Digital Wi-Fi Compatible Indoor only Smart Compatible Irrigation Timer

Sprinkler System Control Panel

Quality product and worth the price.

Amazing product

Great upgrade

Reliable and user friendly.

I like the ease of programming. With the WiFi capability, I can control my system from anywhere. This unit took the place of an older Rain Bird controller that was 19 years old.

It needs a WiFi module for another $100 that is not disclosed to function.

Easy installation

Installation was fast and easy, instructions were really clear and easy steps to follow

Needs String WiFi

Requires a very strong wifi signal. Even though the bars on my phone showed a signal that should have been ok, the controller would not stay connected. So I bought a wifi extender, and set that up. Now it makes a good connection and I’m happy with the way it works.

Software is Not the Best

The product came as described and controls normal sprinkler valves. Distance of my run from controller to valve is probably 100'. No problems with voltage drop on that distance. Controller comes with two different apps. The first is their Gen 1 app and is much older. Second is newer web based app (2.0) which is not easy to setup. I opted to use the Gen 1 app which is much easier to connect. Data (times, days, zones) is loaded on the controller locally and stored. Interface is slow so be patient ...

Rainbird conveyance and efficiency

This was easy to install and connect to WiFi. The app allows for complete control.

Does not include wifi adapter

Be careful when purchasing this product. Rainbird does not include the Wi-Fi adapter with the controller. That is a separate purchase.

Nice to have Wi-Fi capability

Ease of installation and configuration

Happy with this product

Easy to program; love having wi fi integrated and the app on my phone.

Waste of money

Worst device ever, save yourself a hassle and buy something else. The app is terrible but the real issue is keeping the thing connected to WiFi. The last straw was after it disconnected for the 10th time in a few months it will not reconnect to my network, saying my SSID or password is incorrect. Even tried a hard reset and setup as new and problem persists

Easy install

This system has great features that I like, especially the controls from a phone. Very easy to follow instructions for the set up, and the wiring was simple. For set up, it needed To be covered So putting out in the elements is something you’re not able to do. I have mine in the garage and drilled a hole through the wall to the outside and had to run extended lengths of wire To reach manifold. Overall was very simple to understand and complete project

Not Lowes fault but rather Rainbird

Connecting is horrible, still unable to connect.

Smart Irrigation Timer

Three months since I purchased this Smart Rainbird controller and I am very happy with it! installation and set up was was easy, the app is simple enough to use. Great to be able to turn on/off, adjust, set rain delay from my phone. the "soak cycle" feature works well here in the "high desert".

It was so easy

It took a couple of weeks before I got around to replacing my ~30 year old controller. And man was I surprised. It was so easy to get it wired up and an absolute breeze to get it programmed. I couldn’t believe how much easier it is to program using the app. I’m very pleased with this purchase.

Quick easy to use sprinkler control system

Great sprinkler system that works for quite a few zones. Had this installed in about 1000sq ft yard. It has enough zones to make it useful for planned sections thst need different watering times and the app was fairly intuitive. This model does need to be indoors though.
