I purchased this controller to replace one that was in service eighteen years at least. It was a snap everything lined up real nice and programming was a easier than the older model. The yard maintenance guy I use once in a while said he do for $500. and install a superior controller. I asked him how come everytime we discuss doing something it's always $500.? So I did a little research and found this controller. Easy installation and programing. It's been in service now for about six months working just fine.

Works good

Bought to replace my older Hunter XCore that worked great--until it didn't. I thought this new one would be an easy replacement for the old one. It wasn't. Had to grind out the hole for the sprinkler control wires because they've now made it smaller so a standard PVC does not fit. The wall mounting hole are also different. My old unit came with a book with very good installation instructions. This unit did not. It only came with one-page quick-how to use instructions. The pump start relay wire now gets hooked up to an "MV" --not the obvious "P" like my old unit and no explantion of what MV is-- since there was NO BOOK. The dial has a picture of a pump and you can turn this on or off. No explanation of what that thing does? I left it on. The Icing on the cake--after I got it all modified and installed the digital display came up with a "61"? It took me a minute to figure out that was supposed to be an "A1". They even screwed that up!! I'd send it back but I've done all the work to install it and I need a sprinkler control. What a piece of Garbage!!
