RAINPOINT Sprinkler Timer Outdoor, Water Timer for Garden Hose Faucet Timer, Programmable Watering Irrigation Timer with Rain Delay/Manual, V2, 2024 Release(Metal)

Well written instructions. Great warranty. Works as intended and has made my lawn watering very easy. I am buying a second one.

This timer can be used manually or set to turn on at specific times, for the length of time you want. It can also water every day, every other, evry third day, etc. If rain is coming you can set a delay. I got the one with the brass fitting. It is perfect for my drip irrigation. With both set up it saves me so much time, effort, and water. You will need two AAA batteries. The screen flashes between the current time and the next watering turn on time. It will also let you know if the batteries are low.

This timer seems to work great. It cuts the water on and off without us having to worry about it and keeps our garden watered.

I bought two of these for a grass seeding project this past fall -- one for a small area in my front yard and another for a larger area in my back yard -- although in retrospect I wish I had gotten the two-zone timers. Still, it beat the pants off manual watering multiple times a day.The interface is easy to use but I do have two small gripes with it that I think would improve the product.The first is with making adjustments during the day. If I set a start time for, say, 8:00am but then realize I need to adjust the watering duration or frequency, it cancels watering until 8:00am the next day. I wish it would instead retroactively apply the changes to the start time and calculate the next watering time from that.The second is I wish I could limit the number of waterings per day, or else set an end time, because I don't need to water grass seed throughout the night. In my case I was watering for 5-10 minutes every couple hours during daylight hours, but each evening I would have to remember to go close the valve for the night and then reopen it in the morning. That frankly undermines the benefit of having a timer.At one point I did have one of the timer valves jam on me, to where water would not pass through even when it was supposed to be running. I tried running on manual mode several times like the Rainpoint website suggests, but to no avail. Rather than call customer support, I got a small screwdriver and opened the outer case and took the inner mechanism apart. Never found the source of the jam, but somehow just taking it apart and reassembling it fixed the jam. I probably voided my warranty in doing so, but it wasn't very difficult and it was useful to understand how the valve mechanism worked internally. And I probably resolved the problem faster than if I had contacted customer support.These are worth the money, in my opinion, but next time I have a large seeding project I think I'll upgrade to the two-zone timers.

Easy to use. Works just as advertised

Very good quality and easy to use. Kick myself for not having purchased years ago. We live in an area with clay soil and very warm summers. Our lawn can really dry out and become rock hard. Purchased two of these and very satisfied. So convenient to give that necessary 10-15 minute sprinkle a couple times a day without over watering.Definitely recommend!

Product was easy to install and works as described.

The media could not be loaded.  Hoping the reviews were right. But reliability is horrible. It is not working after 4 months. Changed batteries , Reset it and it seems the internal circuit is not working any more. Buyer be aware.
