Would Not RecommendI haven't had a long time to learn the timer. I gave the rating as a 3 star because it took me several emails, a discussion with Ai at Lowe's and 2 phone calls to receive a receipt. When I picked it up, I asked the sales person about the receipt. She said it would come via email. I needed the receipt to apply for the rebate. I never received it, and am still following up with the rebate. It wasted my time and disappointed me.

Don't mess with the settings
Would Not RecommendThis is a pain to get set up. And once it is, any small change to the settings throws it off. If you need to adjust the "Smart" schedule at all to move the watering time, you don't have a lot of options. There is a "rain delay" that you can manually set. This morning I tried changing the start time from 6:00 AM to 3:00 AM so that watering could be done in time for my son to mow the lawn.

Programs dont run
Would Not RecommendWorked for a couple of years just fine. Then programs just stopped running when programmed and ran when they were not. Watering history is unreliable. Interval watering does not work. Their response is just water on set days. Poor customer support. Avoid this brand.

Better than expected.
Would RecommendThe setup was easy. It performs exactly like I wanted. The app is a little clunky and give probably more information than I would have wanted. But the convenience of using the app is amazing.

Super easy to install.
Would RecommendIt is a smart device which also can function analog. I have my home on the market currently and wouldn’t you know it. The old controller went out. This allows it to be attractive by both young and older potential buyers.
