Amazon.com Review
This plastic, silent-operation sprinkler is good for morning watering of medium-to-large lawns and gardens. It can water anywhere from a 20- to 80-foot-diameter area (up to 5,000 square feet) with its two-stage watering system, which consecutively waters short and longer ranges, with circle coverage adjustable from 20 to the full 360 degrees of arc. This sprinkler can also be connected to others in a series for irrigating larger areas, and it performs well even at water pressures as low as 14 psi.

Customer Reviews

Best sprinkler I've ever had!
Living in Texas is testament to tough weather conditions. Sprinklers don't hold up well under intense heat and the soil is extremely hard in areas such as mine.

These Gardena sprinklers have held up better than any I've owned. They survive the heat. They survive the cold. I have left mine outside year round and they have not fallen apart like so many other brands of sprinklers I've owned.

I especially like the gear driven mechanism. It performs smoothly, does not stall under windy conditions and is very easy to adjust. I owned another brand that broke immediately when I accidently turned the adjustment knobs the wrong way. Unlike a pulsing sprinkler, the smooth stream of water is less likely to dissipate in windy conditions. Another great feature is the sprinkler will operate under lower water pressure conditions which makes it easy to water small areas.

The only thing I've found that has ended the life of my sprinklers is the lawn care folks leave them on the driveway. They do not hold up to be driven over. But I'm buying more and alerting the lawn care people they'll be buying replacements if it happens again!

Great Gear-Driven, Low-Pressure Sprinkler
I've used this type of sprinkler for several years and it's absolutely great! It's gear driven and much quieter than the typical pulsating type. It also works on less water pressure than the pulsating types allowing you to power two of these off a single faucet (use a splitter with two hoses). Give it a try, you'll like it!

Gardena backs up their products
Gardena make great garden watering devices and they back up their products. I bought this sprinkler a few years back, It arrived damaged, but I did not realize it until I needed it, which was after the amazon return date. I called up Gardena, and they replaced it no questions asked.
These gardena sprinklers are also light weight, but I have never had an issue with them moving. With these having plastic parts, good idea to store them indoors over winter. The plastic parts you would think would be flimsy, but these suckers last for years. And if they do break from wear, like I mentioned, Gardena will replace.
Also check out their oscillating sprinkler, I love that one, it can adjust to fit almost any lawn, no water waste on pavements. This one the Turbo Drive I use for spot watering or distant areas.
