Good value and very easy to use - compared with my Hozelock one - which cost me a fortune!

5.0 out of 5 stars Simple to use - great value timer!

K. · 24 July 2014

Only bought this very recently, just before we went on holiday. I didn't wish to spend a lot of money, because I only wanted it for a couple of pots and ordinarily I never use a timer. I set it up on a ordinary hose without an irrigation hose system just to water 2 pots of hydrangeas. I'm really impressed. It's only a very simple timer, but very easy to use. Because it doesn't have a digital clock, you have to do initial set up at a time you wish the hose to come on. I set it up at 6pm and set the dials for every 12 hours and for 5 minutes. So, from the time of set up, the timer clicks on at 6pm and 6am (every 12 hours, ie. twice each day) for 5 mins. Simple!In fact, with such hot weather recently, and my back garden being a sun trap, I've left the timer on! (No coming out to thirsty hydrangeas!) Once I've redesigned my garden, I'll put in a proper irrigation system and set it to that too!It's also quite varied in its timings. You can set it run for longer periods with varying increments (up to 120 minutes if I recall correctly) and set it to come on hourly, several times throughout the day, up to every 72 hours or even just weekly!I spent £12.49 and it's been well worth the money. I confess, it was significantly cheaper than some other brands I saw and I was worried that it wouldn't work properly, fall off the tap etc. etc. But I've been very pleasantly surprised and pleased with its performance and simplicity.It's only been working for just over a month now, so I can't comment on battery life or its long-term durability, but everything else is very good and I wouldn't hesitate in recommending it to anyone.

1.0 out of 5 stars Useless.

I must caveat this that the following is based on my experience of the 1 item I received. It is possible I have a dodgy one.Still early days. I installed this 4 days ago and so far it seems hit and miss. So far, more miss than hit.Let me explain:The instructions, although relatively easy to follow are rather high level and vague as to exactly how the timer works when setting up other than stating that you have to start it at the time you want it to come on. OK, got that.First of all, it seems rather temperamental as to whether it actually wants to do anything or not. Installing the batteries gets the system opened up and yo can hear a shirt whirling sound. Water comes out the pipe for about 30 seconds, then it shuts down. OK, so batteries are fine. The light winks on and off, seems random as to how often. No indication on instructions as to the meaning of different frequencies.Send: Turning the duration to "Open" from fist putting in batteries, sometimes opens the valve, sometimes doesn't, again seems pure lottery. More often than not, nothing happens at all.Thirdly: Setting up, as per instructions the timer and duration, again, sorry, to harp on, but is another lottery. SO far, it's worked once on the timer, whilst i was testing. However, when I then changed the frequency, it didn't register at all and stopped working completely. The only way to get anything to happen was to remove batteries and start again. Again, not always fool proof.Lastly The last attempt has failed to get the timer to work. Although the thing make all the right noises on battery removal/insertion and the test worked, once I set the timer up to water every 6 hours for 3 minutes, nothing happened at all.I've now reset it again and will see what happens.And the instructions state that once you've set it up to start with, you can just change it and it'll be fine. No you can't. It takes no notice and stops working completely. Only way is to remove batteries, reinstall them and pray.All in all, a lousy product. It was cheap, which is the only thing going for it, but I still expect it to at least work.I shall give it one more week and if it still isn't playing, I shall ditch it and get a Hozelock instead.My opinion: Buy something else. Spend a bit more for a product that actually does what it says on the tin.Update 2 May 2016. Had this going for a while now and it's still not good. Have figured out by reading all the feedback that if the lights flash quickly it means the thing isn't working. Noting in the instructions about that. Thanks to the poster for that info. I can now get the unit to work for about 2 days max before the lights start flashing fast again, then have to take batteries out and reinsert before it'll work again.Not so critical at the moment as have only transplanted chili plants which are quite small so need very little water, but once summer comes and the plant are fully grown, bit of a problem. Am definitely upgrading to a decent timer This one will go in the bin of bad puchases forever more.

nach regen voll mit Wasser

Alles hat in ordnung gelaufen, bis erstes Regen kam. Dann ist Wasser reingekommen, auch wenn es gut geschlossen war. Dann sind Batterien und Platine kaput gegangen...Nicht zu weiterempfehlen.

Después de escribir una opinión favorable respecto al producto tengo que indicar que pensé que duraría algo, pero no me llego a durar ni un mes trabajando 15 minutos en intervalos de 12 horas. Así que no recomiendo este producto a nadie un auténtico fiasco

Parfait pour le prix

A. · 5 September 2015

Très bien pour le prix.La première fois que je l'ai programmé, il n'a pas marché après 24h. J'ai réessayé et ça a marché, donc il ne faut pas hésiter à recommencer.Comme l'ont fait remarquer certains autres acheteurs, les bagues de fixations ne sont pas forcément très solides, il faut juste éviter de les serrer trop fort.

funziona

c. · 17 July 2019

facile da installare e perfettamente funzionante - peccato le istruzioni solo in inglese e la mancanza di un avvio rapido anche non a tempo

utilisation simple

S. · 8 November 2017

Facilité de mise en oeuvre. Le couvercle en polycarbonate qui se visse pour protéger les boutons de programmation ne permet pas une étanchéité parfaite. l'Humidité sous forme de condensation est a essuyé régulièrement. A part cela, c'est parfait
