freddie60+: The display of information on Amazon (I expect precise specs) did not tell that it is not compatible with European electricity. I had to get this information from the Irritrol customer service hotline.
So I had to resend. The respective process was perfect and quick.

Marie Aquino: This unit was straight forward in its instructions, as well as the available video. Best of all, my son did it himself, saving me a bunch of money.

Richard Walker: Easy to install with replacement controller

MR C.: This is easier to use than most. But don't lose the user manual that comes with it.
I lost my manual, and wrote to the company saying that I was will to purchase another user manual.
I never got a reply. I recommend that if you purchase this controller, scan or make a copy or every page. keep it in a safe place in case you lose the original manual

Hardware TravelerHardware Traveler: I had a Hardee Irrigation unit that was not working well; the LCD was not showing characters properly, all the switches were stiff, and the manual "ON" button was stuck.
The replacement Irritrol RD600-EXT-R Rain Dial unit is a pretty exact replacement. The box size is identical; the mounting screw locations are a 1:1 match, so no new holes in the wall are needed.
Pro: Exact match, no new learning curve. The physical box size and layout is the same as the Hardee unit, and it does the job. The electrical control board has changed, but I had enough slack in existing wiring to make things fit.
Con: The fit/finish on the new unit is lacking. The control portion casing has a gap on the top; the label on the face does not line up with the switch positions. For example, moving the switch one click to the right, the pointer is sitting on the label between position 1 & 2 — same thing for other positions on the face of the unit. Also, the RD600 external case, the plastic feels less rigid and thinner compared to the Hardee unit. The "Rain Dial" label on the front of the box was not well aligned and had a bubble where the label was not sticking to the exterior...
