    I've got all the same features as the 2nd and 3rd sprinklers from very similar sprinklers by Melnor, but for half the price. Melnor 65031 and 65165AMZ Melnor XT Turbo

      I thought the same thing. Melnor sprinklers are much cheaper and do everything this does.

      Can't speak to the ones mentioned here, but the Melnor ones will fail if you're leaving out in the sun for any period of time. Cheap plastic gears get pliant with sun and will eventually just spray one direction only until the weather cools down. Probably fine for regular watering if you take them inside, but not ideal if you're watering a reno or overseed.

      While at one time each manufacturer made their own models of sprinklers the industry changed and many of the components that comprise modern sprinklers as with many modern goods are modular and used among different brands and parts are sold between different brands to make their own models.
      Some Melnor products are sold under other manufacturer’s names and some Melnor’s are made by NAAN/Jain and some are made by Gardena using the same spray heads but different cases or bases to give each brand its own identity.

    Just a tip for free. Here in Australia we use metric sized hoses so when I have 2 sprinklers hooked up together I use a 18mm hose (in the US a 3/4 inch) to the first sprinkler and then run a 12mm (US 1/2 inch) hose to the second sprinkler. That way I can be assured the 2nd sprinkler will get a decent pressure to operate effectively.

    Thankfully we've had enough rain this month b/c our water bills are through the roof and we don't get a summer rate, so I'm not watering until I figure out how to put a rain barrel and pump in place.
    There's a great video idea - how to use a rain barrel to water your yard!

    Plastic no matter what type will eventually crack. I remember a sprinkler at my parents house that was very old all metal that spun in a circular motion. It is still alive somewhere intact and ready to go.

    @wmb9419 Год назад +1

    So years ago I bought into the whole Gardena quick connect system. But I personally found it to quickly be junk. It didn't last, it leaked and depended on tiny o rings. It was just rubbish. So while not cheap, I ended up switching over to an Eley hose reel with Dramm solid brass quick connects. I also use Dramm sprinklers. I expect this stuff to last a lifetime. Its absolutely solid and consistently works.

    What makes these smart? I would assume that smart would mean there is electronic controls or similar. These are adjustable in my opinion.

    • @SilverCymbal
      @SilverCymbal  Год назад +1

      I think its really smart sprinkler tech, not smart as in internet. The adjustment of the pattern right or left is very unusual and the on off valve with limited flow is pretty cool.

  • @richardsmith1161

    I don't think it's made anymore, but there was a sprinkler that had tabs you push in where you could adjust the distance for every few feet. That made it perfect for irregular yards.

    The Orbit 360 style models are great cheap alternatives for smaller yards. Been using them for a few years now. I have the Gardena quick release hose system which is outstanding, but don't get the plastic adapter for whatever you want the hose to connect to. They are absolute junk, super fragile but the metal adapters are aces.

    I made my entire 1acre with the OS 140, the underground version of the one presented here. I then used them to get the grass going and saw how much area is missed if you enlarge the area to the max. Compared to a above ground Kaercher I had, it’s complete trash. Too bad I have 20 installed :|

  • @mybootscamewithoutstraps
    @mybootscamewithoutstraps Год назад

    I just stick with the 360 sprinklers from orbit. I have 2 of them for the front yard food forest and they give me the best coverage, and despite having a rectangular yard with 2 circular sprinklers, I only "waste" about 5% of the water coming out where the excess spills onto the street or into my driveway.
    The ideal situation is to have a drip irrigation setup, but I simply don't want to put the effort in right now, so Orbit 360s are the go-to.

    I don’t know if it’s just me or what, but these Gardena sprinklers just don’t last for me. I’ve dropped $$ on a couple of their back and forth models a few years ago and they didn’t even last a season of occasional watering. Not frozen, not abused, just stop moving and can’t be unstuck. 😢

    Around 60 bucks for a top of the line sprinkler is a fair price considering many people spend twice that much buying sprinklers every few years because of build quality and lack of features. I’ll be honest i never heard of this brand but definitely getting one, i easily spend 15-20 minutes trying to adjust my sprinkler and water pressure so i don’t waste water these look so much better to use and easier to adjust.

      Thanks for your response and the video. I have a zonal system to where I plug hose into one nozzel and it waters that section of lawn but I like the idea of a timer and the adjustability of the water flow and the pattern of the water flow. And so instead of after 20 min. Of watering and then plugging into another zone
      This might be a better option ❓🤷
