Orbit 58910 Programmable Watering Timer for Garden Hoses

misterc: Got this to replace one that was many years old. Very easy to program, with many options. It gets used heavily as we travel a lot and it never missed a beat. It is stored for the season now, but we hope to get many years of use. Will of course put in new batteries each year. We store is with out barreries.

M. Wegner: Works very well. I especially like that I don't need to re-read the instructions every time I change a setting. I bought one and liked it so well that later I bought another.

F.E.: The timer is easy to set up and works very well. When the timer is set and hoes are in place don’t forget to turn the water tap on.

Rosemeire S. Kummel: O Anuncio faz parecer que o temporizador é da marca Orbit mas apesar de ser bem parecido, não identifiquei o nome Orbit no timer.

bradley: The single hose-end timer by Orbit works well and is dependable. All functions are programmable by rotating a dial. It has an independent setting for manual watering, that does not require interrupting the program. My unit is the second I ordered; the first was somehow lost by Intelcom. It took 2 weeks before I was able to process a refund from Amazon and then start my purchase again.

Joel GC: Muy fácil de usar e instalar, si ya cuentas con el sistema de riego por aspersión, en mi caso ya lo tenia instalado y solo fue de esperar que llegara y conectarlo con un tramo de manguera al sistema de rociadores. Al día de hoy funciona perfectamente, utiliza 3 pilas AAA que al parecer dura entre 4 y 6 meses. Sencilla de programar y en épocas de lluvias puedes retrasar el riego o cancelarlo hasta que se paren las lluvias, con solo mover el dial, vuelve a la programación anterior.

Andy Helsby: I purchased this product at the beginning of summer to help water the lawn and I've been impressed so far but it does have a few downsides.
The device is pretty heavy and it does come with a metal rod that should be bolted to the side of the house to give it some extra support. Unfortunately the rod comes down at a roughly 45 degree angle and ends up being located by ny poured concrete walls, so it was basically impossible to bolt the stand to the side of the house. I ended up putting a small piece of wood up against the house and screwing the bolt into that. It works but is not as secure as the wood can move around as opposed to a bolt in the house.
So far the device itself hasn't leaked but the hose connectors do - it's really tough to get hoses to attach to anything without a little bit of water leaking. However the good news is that the shutoffs work well so they don't leak 24/7

My biggest disappointment however is the manual override button. This works great for those impromptu waterings where you don't have an available sprinkler, the area is too oddly shaped for a sprinkler or you just need to fill a bucket, wash the car, the dog etc. I use it to water the...

modemers: I needed timers to water my front and back lawns. I tend to forget to turn on the sprinklers and if I go away on vacation, the yard suffers. I did a LOT of research for timers that are programmable with some flexibility in scheduling. I also was looking for a fair price. Some of these units cost so much you could pay to have a professional irrigation system installed! I settled on this and am extremely happy.

** First, it's very simple. You simply turn the dial from step to step. The purpose of each step is clearly stated: nothing ambiguous or confusing about "set time" or "how often?"
** Second, the words on the dial are large and printed in a clean font. And the digital readout is huge. For us with failing eyes, it's great to not have to remember the bring the glasses. And if your spigot is behind a bush and in the shadows, it's a big plus.
** Third, it's easy to change the settings. If the weather says it's going to rain for the next week, in one minute you can change it to not run for the next 6 days or just turn it to off. When you turn it back on, it remembers the previous settings!
** Fourth, did I mention it's simple and easy? If you don't touch it for two...
