Gardena Pipeline sprinkler system garden tap: Rotatable tap, anti-splash tap connector, control and shut-off valve, installed without tools (08252-20)

This product is brilliant for buried pipes. The quality is excellent. These look very smart buried in the garden. Be aware that the connectors are 3/4 and not typical 1/2 but can be easily swapped with a 3/4 hose end connector

I have a rainwater harvesting tank below ground complete with a pump and a supply pipe routed below ground and with these Gardena connectors at strategic points around the garden it saves a long trailing hose. it is brilliant

Honestly, this is making my garden so much nicer and providing great functionality. Really easy to use and set up, but as you go down this route of enlightenment and tranquillity in the garden, it becomes quite expensive. But no regrets. I will continue to grow my system in due course

Coverage from the sprinkler is not very good

I ordered this item through Tooled-Up. Unfortunately the item in the Gardena box was not the end connector point with automatic stop-valve, but the start point without stop valve. When I connected these points in my installation and tested, I noted that water was spilling out of these units and only the realised that the end adapters were different than the ones on the pictures of the box.I tried to return the item, but refund was rejected with the argument that faults have to be notified within 7 days and the fact that I used the item to test it is considered as acceptance. I could have a long debate with them about hidden and apparent faults, but would not order through Tooled-Up again.

All good

it is ok but it is poorly described on the web.
