Gilmour Single Outlet Electronic Water Timer for Garden Hose, Irrigation Timer for Sprinklers and Drip Lines, Blue

This, along with a drip irrigation system, kept all of our plants alive for a 5 day trip. The timer works flawlessly, programming it is self explanatory, didn't even need the instructions.

I’m a professional and this is the best all around faucet timers I’ve used. Controls are very simple and versatile. Faucet connector is durable with a brass insert, and housing and buttons feel solid and long lasting. Has hose thread instead of pipe thread on the outlet (which some have.) Mostly it’s intuitive. I have spent a half hour trying to figure out a clients faucet timer with no manual, total nightmare. This one took 3 minutes to figures out and set without a manual when it arrived. Also, it’s set up based on days not days of the week. This allows you to water every two days three days etc. timers that use day of the week are terrible because if you water twice a week you end up watering every two days and then every three days, which makes no sense. My only complaint (listen up Gilmour!) is they it doesn’t have a hinged plastic timer as others do. I have not had one fail yet, but it seems inevitable that with the sun beating down on the exposed face you’ll run into trouble eventually.) install it in a shady spot if possible.

I bought this product close to a year ago when I decided to use drip irrigation for my pots and plants. Easy to use and easy to install and did what it is supposed to do. Very recently the display started to give up. I checked my order status and saw that I still have one month left on the warranty. So decided to reach out their support team. Went to their website and saw a section for warranty claim. Filled all the required information and then heard nothing for few days. I thought it not going to work and won't get anything, but then I got surprised to see an email a few days later that they have shipped the replacement piece. I was totally impressed and was also pleased to see that the company is ready to stand behind their products and customers.

When they work, it does what it supposed to. I've gone through 5 in a few years. Often the display starts looking weird and then it just stops working. It would be nice if they lasted longer.

This is simple to use and hopefully it will last as long than as another one I had. I am replacing one that I’ve used for 5 years.

This timer outlet has performed excellently. The ease of settings and reliability has been great. Not sure how long it will last, but for a couple of growing seasons it's been all that was hoped for. This product has received high ratings in the past, so it can probably be considered a go-to product for this category of timed irrigation. Manufacturer should not change anything.

Functionally, this product is fine; however, it only lasted one NorthEast season. It was used June through September and then stored inside. Upon set up this month, it has an intermittent short that resets everything and eliminates the scheduling. There are other options, I can't recommend because of reliability concerns.

Been running this bad boy TWICE A DAY for 5 YEARS in the garden. Runs like a top. And hats off to the sparky that designed the board. Pretty sure its had the same double A batteries in it the whole time.

The price I paid was a bargain compared the higher prices I paid for a Gardena and an Orbit water timer. The Gilmour water timer seemed sturdy with some metal material for the connector, not just plastic. It was very easy to program. I would buy this item again.

Este producto es lo mas fácil de usar, la realidad es que funciona buy bien, mi única queja es que el paquete venia abierto, supuse que seria de que lo probaron antes, aunque si pensé que había sido una devolución y me habían dado un producto así, les di el beneficio de la duda y lo probe y al final decidí quedarme con el debido a que funciono todo perfectamente.

This timer works very well. No leaks, easy to set up. I was hoping to be able to set up based on the day of the week - Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday. No provision for that, but can be set to every second day or whatever, which actually makes more sense than specific days of the week.

Tengo más de un mes usándolo y funciona perfecto. No tiene fugas y es fácil de programar. Le cambié el empaque que traía por otro convencional, sin la malla, y funciona muy bien. Por si acaso lo tengo protegido del sol, que aquí es muy, muy intenso; simplemente le puse una maceta al revés, para cubrirlo. Lo recomiendo bastante. Es un producto muy práctico.

Al tacto, a la vista y en funcionamiento se puede notar que es un equipo bueno y funciona bien.
