I bought this one and my son dropped it and it broke. I likes it because it was sturdy, on the ground that is. I was a little surprised how easily the head snapped off. I bought a plastic Gilmour that I would recommend over this one because it allows me more control over how to disperse the water.

This is a high quality sprinkler that will meet your needs. I tried it over the "spike" pulse sprinklers that I have used for years and have found it to be flexible and easy to adjust. While you have varying needs, I believe that this sprinkler will meet all of them.

I bought one and it's built the same as all the other I've had in the past. The spring that makes the head rotate is the weakest point on these type of sprinklers. So far mine is holding up. I douse them in WD 40 before every use but I'm using well water which is gyppy and very hard. I like and recommend them.

I am quite sure that all of the Gardena sprinklers come with a quick connector attached. I would suggest buying the set of connectors that are made especially for the gardena sprinklers. I didn't and now wish I had.

We have two that worked fine for about 3 months. We are on well water so mineral build up has slowed the rocker arm to where they don't rotate. They both leak around the valve body unless you get them balanced just right. After years of fighting various sprinkler heads (for general watering) of all descriptions and costs, I have resigned myself to only getting one season out of any of them. Sorry, wish I had better news.

I would say depending on how often it has rained, I would water it at least once a week. check on it though, if it looks as though it needs water more often than that then I would water it twice a week instead. make sure that it is well established in the area that you decide, or have already decided to plant it at. I hope that this helps you out. thank you very much, rennea Esposito burgess. 863-683-8711. I have one of these myself. it is very little. about 10 inches tall. I think in the beginning you may want to water it a little more, but just do not over water it. thanks again, rennea. I hope that you have the very best of luck with it. they are very beautiful vines. rennea.

My garden is at least that distance from my faucet. I just use a regular hose to the garden, then the soaker hose in the garden. Works great! But I don't recommend putting ANOTHER soaker hose at the end of the first one. Then the pressure would be too low and it won't distribute evenly.

I doubt that the flow rate would be adequate for watering. Possibly on very small plants. It is a sprayers.

I set mine for 20 min at 5am and 20 min at 6pm I have a sprinkler system that covers a large area so 20 min twice a day works fine. If it is set to go off after 6pm, your plants may get a fungus or rot from sitting in dampness all night. What I like about this model is the option of having your hose attached to the other coupling so you don't need a splitter from the faucet.I'm sorry, I misread your question. I have another Melnor that I set for every two days as it waters plants in a shaded area.

Hugh, I'm not sure. You could look at www.sprinklerwarehouse.com and ask that question.

I have no experience with sprinkler systems as I live in an apartment. It seems to have survived quite a few heavy rains though.

I received an Orbit sprinkler and I love it. It is the perfect sprinkler for the area I needed! Very stable and it shoots a good distance.

That should work for you. The "expanding" hoses will work if you don't mind getting wet to set the sprinkler at the end of the hose once it expands. :o) I just wish the tractor moved a little faster. With the draught, we're rationing water in Colorado (even with the floods), and the city has limited the time we're allowed to water. Good luck with your Raintrain (be sure to put it away - the neighbors all want one.

Yes, it would work. The spray is adjustable and it would probably, and thoroughly, water the area in about 20 minutes. As much as I really like this product I really believe that it's application in this small area is not cost effective. I would recommend an adjustable oscillating sprinkler on a water timer at the faucet that works of water flow. Each is readily available online. Good Luck!

This tiller is powerfull. Worth the money in my opinion. I would be carefull with the sprinkler system. Maybe use one of them 3 prong two handle flower bed tools you see in Home Depot around the sprinkler area. Usually they are blue in color. Hope this helps

You are so right. The lack of water from the sprayer is one of the BIG problems, this product was a complete waste of money for me and I waited a few days to long to return it!!!! we all should be given a credit or a full refund. Maryann if at all possible return it ! Good Luck!

In terms of its 'reach,' it may be more than what is needed forthat use. My recommendation would be to get a good 'up and over'sprinkler as it would water in a better rectangle-like pattern for your needs.

I also didn't receive any instructions with the purchase. I looked up suggestions on google. This is what I've found, I sprinkle/spray water on my plants once a week. The suggestions said less than that however it is incredibly dry in my apartment so they are requiring it more frequently. When I planted them I made sure that they had a great drainage system (rocks in the very bottom with topsoil above that).
