RAINPOINT Sprinkler Timer, Programmable Water Timer for Garden Hose, Outdoor Soaker Hose Timed with Rain Delay/Manual/Automatic Watering System, Digital Irrigation for Yard, Lawn, 1 Outlet

I've tried growing a garden multiple times in the past with varying levels of success. The biggest issue I have had has been consistent watering. I live in the desert, and so consistent watering is key, but I just didn't have the time to keep up on it as needed. This year, I decided to get a timer and hook it up to a soaker hose for the garden. This was super easy to set up - only issue was that the valve was stuck and wouldn't open initially. I called customer service, and they said to activate and deactivate manual mode 5-10 times and see if that would get the valve unstuck. I didn't think it would work, but I decided to give it a try - and it worked! It's working well to water my garden without having to think about it at all! It's super easy to set up with a straightforward control panel, and it fits perfectly to the hose bib and the hose. Definitely recommend!

I have been using the RainPoint timer for a little more than a year now and I have been very pleased with the product. I know that it has been just over a year because I had one (out of four that I have been using) break down a few weeks short of the 1-year mark. Something had gone wrong with the water seal and water ruined the electronics. Even though I didn't contact them until just after the 1-year mark they still replaced the unit. Their support team was friendly and easy to work with.I did try a different timer before the RainPoint. It is not an exhaustive comparison (with only one product to compare it to), but the biggest advantage of the RainPoint timer over the other brand was the battery life. It would outlast the other time by several weeks before the batteries needed to be changed.

This seems to be a well-constructed solid sprinkler timer. I bought and instalked 1 then bought another sinnke plus the 2 output model.I used plastic quick-disconnects on one and brass on the other two...all with teflon tape and double washers (supplied) if needed...so it will be a breeze to remove for winter or to a new watering setup. No leaks anywhere. Instructions were a little hard to decipher but was not a problem (I made my own more simplified set).First unit working for almost 2 weeks without a hitch, other two about a week...no problems.Highly recommended...

I really like this timer. It is very easy to set up and use. It seems really sturdy. Use it to set up a soaker hose in the garden. It seems water resistant but only had it for a month so will write another review in the future regarding that. I think it is a really nice value for the money. That all being said, the customer service is really nice as well. If you send an email or call they usually get back to you in a day or 2. What i did not like is that they offer a 30% discount on future products which i was going to use to get another timer. BUT they only offer a discount on certain items and this timer was not one of them. I would have given this 5 stars if not for that. I do recommend the product and customer service but was a little disappointed in the bait and switch.

I just bought this Rainpoint single port timer to water my new Magnolia tree I had planted by the nursery where I bought it. They require it be watered 2 to 3 times per week in dry or windy weather. The Rainpoint was easy to setup and program. I like it’s compact shape since my outside faucet is low to the ground and I wouldn’t have had enough room to get the hose on if it had been as big as other water timers I have used.

I had been using Orbit timers for over 10 years. The durability of their unit has not bern great. I usually have had to replace them every 2 years. A friend of mine recommended I try the RAINPOINT timer in place of my non-working Orbit timer. After arriving from Amazon, it was easy to set up and after a month of usage, it has been very dependable. As my other Orbit timers need to be replaced, I will definitely switch to the RAINPOINT drip timers.

I have been using garden timer sprinklers for over 20 years I take them off and store them in the winter. I have never gotten 2 years use out of a timer without it breaking and having to replace it. Most timers come with 30 or 90 day warranty. I am excited to get this timer without a 5 year warranty, so maybe I will not have to buy a new one so soon.

I was torn between 3 and 4 stars because died after a year but worked really good. I had it for right at a year and the screen messed up/got to wet maybe? it stayed outside for about a year and made it through growing season fine. Went to use it again this year and discovered the screen looked like it got water in it. I did leave it outside all year and maybe not best decision. I will add it never leaked and even after being outside for a year the plastic was still solid and held up good. I liked this some much i ordered another one this year and the new one is the same but seems they made a few changes. New one is up and running fine and will see how it holds up. Worth the around $30 i paid for it.
