@@ing5088 Adjusting opposite of the nozzle seems pretty straightforward to me. Unless the instructions were written in Latin I'm not sure how that could be confusing.

Most bad reviews are from people that don’t read instructions.

Great review! I originally made the same mistake, because I didn’t read the directions. But soon realized that I need to make the adjustments on the opposite side of the spray. Now it works perfectly, and for the first time ever in the 5 years I’ve lived in this house, I now have full grass on the sunny side of my house. It takes six of these sprinklers to cover all of my lawn in the front and back. Better yet, I have them connected individually to a Melnor four-port programmable timer, and opted not to use the pass through, because I don’t have enough water pressure. So far I’m impressed, and I’ve had them in operation for nearly 3 months.

Great design - even has 2 nozzles to catch the grass closer to the head like most sprinklers miss. I'm definitely buying one of these.

That’s exactly what I need. I was literally daydreaming about finding something like that. I’m starting to feel like you are solving a bunch of issues I have to attend too. Another great video

I bought one of these a couple of years ago (I did read the instructions before using!). It works pretty good at first but it had to be constantly readjusted and it did not water very well directly around the sprinkler itself. It broke after about a month of use and I returned it to the store. Most of the bad reviews I've read focus on the the bad build quality and the fact that it breaks easily. I exchanged it for a Gilmour Pattern Master and that works great.

Great idea and I’m glad you made a video about it. I like the way the lower sprayer gets the middle of the upper stream area watered. Much more even watering that way.

Very interesting design. Will need to take a serious look at my lawn areas to determine whether or not I'll use it but I definitely respect the ingenuity.

I picked one of these up, it was delivered today. Unfortunately my experience was not good. I had great expectations that this would allow me to care for a hard to reach area of my yard. I set the sprinkler up and was able to successfully adjust the distance of each stream with ease. If I were using the full 360 degrees rotation I never would have known I had a problem. However I was only planning to use a 180 degree arc; and therein lies the problem. The sprinkler blows right through the stops which are designed to be deployed when using anything less than the full 360 degree arc. The stops travel around with the head instead of staying in place and doing their job. Well, anyway I am going to keep it and use it in another location where I can use the full 360 degrees. Thank you! I enjoy all your video's!!

Gilmour Pattern Master has been out for years and works great. It doesn’t change the water pressure but will conform to the area you want watered.

Was just looking at this in Lowe’s yesterday

I have a few of these for my lawn. The space is not symmetrical, and is longer than it is wide. They take a little tweaking, but definitely water more efficiently than anything else I've tried. Also, I'd to give props to this channel. As someone from the same area, I've leaned allot about taking care of my grass more effectively. Your content has been extremely helpful. Thanks!

Gilmour made a pattern master that depending on the arc and shape of your yard you could set it to water farther in certain areas and shorter in others. So u could have a driveway that you could set it to water less in that area and more in others

I'm still using my home-made pvc sprinkler I made last yr lol...this thing works awesome! I went and dug up all the rain bird sprinkler heads in my yard. Previous owner didn't air out the system so I've inherited a variety of sprinklers👍 Thanks again man

I actually put in an Orbit below-ground system myself; and, I'm ordering one of these right now to test in a couple areas where I had to go with some overspray on standard circular sprayers.

Ive been using the Gilmour pattern master,its super adjustable too. I believe they were the first sprinkler thats truly adjustable, I could be wrong,but this one look great also ♥️

I have a "Rain King" Traveling sprinkler from the 50s I believe, that still works like a champ. Adjustable range and a winch line that drags the sprinkler with hose and shuts off the water at the end the line also releasing the "winch" line at the same time . You can also set it to leave the water on at the end. STILL working like a charm for our small yard! Yours may be cooler but lets see how it works in 50-60 years time.

Now what would be cool is an in ground system with this type of head. That way it’s in the same spot always and you make those adjustments once and you’re done. Turn it on and go.

Best sprinkler I ever bought

Gilmore makes one that does the same thing, but executes the operation differently. I agree with you that some of the complaints are operator error, but it’s possible that some people received defective units. Several complaints were about the stops not working and making a full 360° rotation. ***Recommended Reviews***: Quick disconnects. Specifically Melnor plastic disconnects vs some other brands. Melnor’s yellow ones are intended for spigots/hose inlet while the grays are for hose outlet/Water device. I find the metal ones like what you use seize after some time. I did find some pretty cool ones on Amazon called, “Essential Washers”. Also, please consider reviewing Melnor and Orbit timers. Several designs out there from single outlets, quad outlets, detachable timers and Bluetooth with programmable Apps.

Thanks for this interesting video. Orbit also has a tripod mounted H20-Six, gear drive sprinkler, which looks like a good match for a garden.

Great review! thanks

You're good dude, you're good. keep the videos coming.

Purchased this sprinkler about a month ago became VERY frustrated with it because it's not clear on how to adjust the heads, but my Biggest issue with this sprinkler is the spikes, they have broken off and do not stick in the ground very well. I wish this thing was on a sled. Thank you for the clarification on adjusting the heads. Always appreciate your perspective.

Thanks for making a video that is simultaneously informative and concise. I do have one observation to make. You state that the sprinkler adjusts its own pressure, and we have to assume you mean that this changes the spraying distance. I don’t think that’s true, but I may be wrong. However, in several views, when you’re explaining that the spray distance is getting longer or shorter, I see that the angle of the spray/spray head is changing, and it looks like the pressure is staying the same. When the angle gets higher, the spray goes farther, and a low angle results in a shorter distance. That’s also how the Gilmour Pattern Master impulse sprinkler works.

super super cool idea.

I have a sprinkler that looks to be just adjustable as this one and far simpler to setup. It is a basic pulsing type that has a back flange that rides on a ring at the base. By pushing the ring up and down you adjust the distance the sprinkler sprays. Its hard to describe but even though it goes around, it can water a square or the yard shape as shown.

I invented this in my head last year. Not really, of course, but the general concept was something I was hoping to find.

You could read the Directions first.

A little over a complicated for my needs but I’m sure it works great for others.

It's almost like 1.) if you buy what you actually need, and 2.) read the instructions, it will do exactly what you need it to do.

Seems the 2nd con that you pointed out that I noticed during the first half of the video... is the dealbreaker... along with the price tag as most lawn watering gadgets are around 5 bucks. If you dont put it exactly in the same place each time, you'll have to fiddle with it for up to an hour each time you water your lawn, which is twice to three times a week. Not to mention if you move it from your backyard to your front yard, it'll have to be readjusted once again. You can counteract this by buying multiple, but then again it comes down to the high price tag. A normal fan sprinkler and a classic slap sprinkler is just more convienent, fast and simple to use, not to mention a fraction of the price. If I didnt install an automated sprinkler system for my yard, I'd consider this, but I'd mark specific spots in my yard for exact placements every time, with a flag or an adornment.

I bought this sprinkler and it didn't perform as advertised. I played with it and tried to get it to work, but it never even got close to what the box claimed. I ended up returning it about 10 minutes after I opened the box and tried it. I got one of the fan style sprinklers that you can adjust the angles on.

I was looking at these at home depot this past weekend but changed my my about buying it at the last second

Do need a pressure vacuum breaker for this use?

I was wonder how such a sprinkler could be designed. I have an irrigation system in our yard. But on the road side, I have to spray water out into the road to get the coverage I need in the yard as it circles. Each sprinkler is a 50 foot spray pattern to reach from head to head. Since we can't install semi-circle sprinklers at the road (it is not part of our yard but the county's) we have to install the pop ups sprinklers 20 feet off the road side. So this would be great in a pop up design...

I appreciate that, wow very nice of you

Can you provide a link for those quick disconnects and water shut off on the hose?

Wonder if this could be connected to like a aerated septic system?

I gave mine a negative review. After I moved it a few times from front to back yards then back again, the part with the adjustment knobs would rotate along with the spray head. The should stay in place. If they don’t it will not adjust the spray. The adjustment changes the angle the water sprays not the pressure. For mine I had to use zip-ties to wrap around the adjustment knobs down to the base to keep them from rotating with the spray head. If they used natal or aluminum gears vs plastic it would be better. If they did, I’d buy another one, or two.

I like the lower spray, beneath the long spray. Impulse sprinklers just don't do a great job evenly watering that distance between the sprinkler and where the main arc ends.

I wonder why they made the base plate so large?! I mean I can see this sprinkler needing more stability so guessing that’s why but wouldn’t it kill the grass underneath it versus a sprinkler on a yard stake? Either way I’m definitely gonna try this!

Check out irrigreen. They have I'm ground sprinklers on timers that do the same thing. I have a client who has one. Bit you program it for you phone. Sorta a pain tho because each head had 500 differnet adjustments lol

Have you heard of the 'Irrigreen' digital sprinkler system? It's a similar concept to this except it's automated. Would love to know your thoughts on it.

Lol This video took my work and watering the lawn

The problem I find with the gear driven Orbit sprinklers isn’t setting them up… it’s how long they last. I’m tired of buying them & installing and then a year later they stop working right.

The thing that may be doing them in is your water pressure. I have 65 psi or so, and use their drip system, with a regulator. I donot know the max pressure on the product. Home Depot has the inline regulators, so, if you have one left, you might try one.They have easy returns, if it is not good for it. The place that delivers your water to you can tell you what you have. You need volumne .

If the head unscrews from the spike base I could see mounting this on a PVC home built sled. I see the spikes being toast the first time I try and set the unit in my South Carolina clay. Heck, I've bent over the aluminum spikes on one I have now trying to get them in the ground...

My concern...I have two sizable rectangular-shaped side yards with no obstructions. This sprinkler sprays, essentially, in adjustable circles. How can I get the corners of my yard watered? Do I need to buy multiple units? Or move the sprinkler around the yard multiple times (which defeats the programming feature offered.) Thoughts?

Does it drip enough to water right where it’s placed?

I have a hose works just fine, but then again I don't water my lawn as it rains to much here

Cool deal

My yard only gets sprinkled when it hasn't rained in awhile. I have a spinner type I move around. There's garden hose zip-tied to the bottom of a trojan fence. At each corner there's a Y connector. I can use a 25 ft hose and reach most of the yard. For added distance, I sit my sprinkler on top of a 5 gallon bucket. 🐀🐾

Do you have a review for the beta cart

Needs a metal base to sit on instead of spikes. Spikes suck in dry lawns and always break. And moving this all around the lawn would suck having to get all the settings adjusted every move

Does this need additional pressure machine?

These are not currently available. Is there a similar alternative?

Any idea on the furthest distance it can throw water ?
