It’s not working

Orbit rotating sprinkler

Absolutely crap.. worthless.. I hooked it up to my garden hose.. first time.. turned it on.. cheap metal at the base snapped..waste of money.. I lost the receipt and can't return it to Lowes Bedford Heights OH... DONT BUY ... DONT BUY

5 minute whirling wonder

Though it did look nice, and grew to longer than expected height, it didn't last more than 5 mins before the shaft broke.

Effective and simple lawn sprinkler

This gives even water distribution in a circle. There aren't any adjustments and if you just want to cover a large area this is an effective way to do it. Make sure the spike is firmly in the ground. Water output is not as high as an impulse sprinkler but I run for a longer time. Also, there's a connection for input and output so you can connect these in series to cover a much larger area. Not as good in windy conditions because there is a lot of spray. Highly recommend.

Broke within first few uses

Using my foot with normal pressure to place sprinkler in ground, the shaft broke at the base weld. Did nothing unusual, build quality just seems to be weak.

gentle fountain sprinkler

this is my favorite sprinkler. i can adjust the pressure from my hose faucet to make the sprinkler cast a wider spread or cover only a smaller area of my garden. I should add that my kids are super excited about running through its fountain like spray. This sprinkler is ideal for garden beds since it’s spray is soft and mimics rainfall well.

Nice sprinkler

Simple design, excellent control of the spray. I used it to protect my fruit trees from sub freezing temps.

Tower lawn sprinkler

Perfect replacement for broken lawn sprinkler

Paper thin metal tubing

The vertical shaft is very delicate and broke on first use.

I LOVE WATCHING IT WHILE IT WORKS!, its very neat.

I bought two of them to help me water my plants while I'm doing other chores. I like the fact that covers a good area and it changes the cycle so the plants very close to the sprinkler also get the necessary water.

Pickup easy and convenient

weak

tower snapped off the base after only a year of pretty light use. very poorly made. bummer since it did a pretty decent job watering!

works great

it's a great sprinkler in spaces I need height.

Luck of the choice

I have bought 6 of these sprinklers and have issues with 3. The first time I used them linked in line they worked great and covered the entire area of my garden. From that first time on, there is only one sprinkler working as it should and the other two spray stationary and don’t cover where they should. I have switched them in the line and the problem continues. Very frustrating.

Great idea--poor reliability

my most recent purchase is the 3rd of these I've bought. The premise of a rotating sprinkler on a high stalk is great for tall vegetables and flowers, but these have no longevity and apparently are poorly constructed. the most recent sprinkler is only 3 months old and has broken at a critical joint. I wish I could find something similar and pay more for better quality.

Rotary Yard Sprinkler

This is my 5th Yard Sprinkler that I had bought in a period of 20 years. They are a great device for your lawn. This particular one has been upgraded in color and built. I will be ordering two more to have them in reserved.

Sprinkler and House Wash

No complaints on either.

It snapped

It snapped in half as my dog ran past it and whipped it with his tail.
