RAINPOINT Sprinkler Timer with Brass Swivel, Programmable Water Timer for Garden Hose with Rain Delay/Manual Watering, Digital Irrigation System Kit for Lawns, 1 Outlet

This worked great for me. I'm using it short term for new grass seed. It's very easy to install and program. I love that there is a small quantity of silicone tape to apply to the threaded connection points to prevent leakage. My main worry was having to leave the water turned on and potential continuous leakage. Other than a little leaking when it first kicks off, there is no leakage. The meter is easy to read and the battery power is still very good after two weeks of operation. The timing mechanism is a little off putting as some other reviewers had mentioned. If you interrupt the sequencing for a mechanical run or test, it does suspend/interrupt the rest of the day's schedule. Still, if you set it and forget it, it works perfectly. On one occasion, I noticed it wasn't sprinkling water at the designated time. I checked the unit and saw it counting down but no water was sprinkling. It took me a minute to figure out the problem. I had accidentally turned off the hose bibb/spigot off out of habit! My bad! Once you have a little experience with the programming and operation, it's a great sprinkler timer! I highly recommend.

Highly recommend!!! I bought two of these. They are wonderful!One of mine started draining a set of batteries within 24 hours so I knew something was wrong. I contacted support and they were incredibly helpful and understanding. They sent me a replacement immediately after I explained the issue!These are dependable and setting them up is a breeze. Make sure you check out both the rain delay and manual functions- I love it.The only thing I cant do with these is run them at say, 8am and 1pm. I could set a 5 hour gap, but then they would do off at 6pm as well. What I do to work around is set a daily timer for 1pm, and in the morning at 8am I walk out and turn each one on with the manual feature for 10 minutes. I have them both running off the same spigot via a splitter so I try not to run them in parallel for water pressure reasons, the devices would certainly allow it.The patches in the grass are no fault of the timers lol- simply a result of growing grass in springtime.I would have given these 5 stars without the excellent customer service. That was simply the cherry on top. They are a good value for the price, and helped me grow out a new lawn that looks fantastic.

I've tried growing a garden multiple times in the past with varying levels of success. The biggest issue I have had has been consistent watering. I live in the desert, and so consistent watering is key, but I just didn't have the time to keep up on it as needed. This year, I decided to get a timer and hook it up to a soaker hose for the garden. This was super easy to set up - only issue was that the valve was stuck and wouldn't open initially. I called customer service, and they said to activate and deactivate manual mode 5-10 times and see if that would get the valve unstuck. I didn't think it would work, but I decided to give it a try - and it worked! It's working well to water my garden without having to think about it at all! It's super easy to set up with a straightforward control panel, and it fits perfectly to the hose bib and the hose. Definitely recommend!

I really like this timer. It is very easy to set up and use. It seems really sturdy. Use it to set up a soaker hose in the garden. It seems water resistant but only had it for a month so will write another review in the future regarding that. I think it is a really nice value for the money. That all being said, the customer service is really nice as well. If you send an email or call they usually get back to you in a day or 2. What i did not like is that they offer a 30% discount on future products which i was going to use to get another timer. BUT they only offer a discount on certain items and this timer was not one of them. I would have given this 5 stars if not for that. I do recommend the product and customer service but was a little disappointed in the bait and switch.

I have used this product for several years. I get about 4 years on average with this design. I am rough on timers, I do not shade or place in a protective environment. They are rated outdoors and I have challenged that assumption.The same area fails on each timer though. Inside where the electronics are kept there is a rubber gasket that seals the compartment which usually what ends up failing. Again, In the full sun, shade then sun again, 4 years in my opinion is a good run.

Our original unit failed after about 10 months (only used it seasonally here in Michigan) and RainPoint worked very well with us to resolve the problem. New unit works great! We now have our gardens on a watering timer like the lawn, helps us to know our landscaping dollars are protected when we get too busy or forget to water!When a company stands behind their products and provides great customer service, I can highly recommend them!!

The button programming was easy enough and I love how many times per day you can set it for 👍 It was incredibly easy to start connecting up AND you get thread tape and spare seals included in their products. It certainly looks good and less clunky size wise than my last timer. As for durability, time will tell as this is day one in a long summer in Arizona. Overall from setting up to connectivity it was a breeze. They look good quality products and so far, I would recommend them, thank you 👍🍻

I was torn between 3 and 4 stars because died after a year but worked really good. I had it for right at a year and the screen messed up/got to wet maybe? it stayed outside for about a year and made it through growing season fine. Went to use it again this year and discovered the screen looked like it got water in it. I did leave it outside all year and maybe not best decision. I will add it never leaked and even after being outside for a year the plastic was still solid and held up good. I liked this some much i ordered another one this year and the new one is the same but seems they made a few changes. New one is up and running fine and will see how it holds up. Worth the around $30 i paid for it.
