Careful Gardener Lawn Sprinklers : Premium Quality Garden Lawn Sprinklers, Best Fun Water Sprinkler System – Gardens & Kids Love Them (Orange Butterfly)

This sprinkler is cheaply constructed and poorly designed. It looks like it cost about $1.00 to produce. Flimsy plastic construction thoroughout, weighs no more than a few ounces. Did not work from the minute I took it out of the box and attached the hose. AWFUL!! You get what you pay for, and apparently one needs to spend more than $17.99 to get a well made garden sprinkler. I returned it.

The picture is NOTHING like what you will actually get. It's pretty cheap looking. In my opinion not worth $25. But, I haven't tried it yet. I'm not so sure how it's going to work, It's so light weight I don't know how it's going to work without falling over from the weight of the hose. I will let you know once I try it out. Right now, very disappointed in construction a of it. The picture shows what appears to be a turquoise heavy duty constructed sprinkler head, the actual component is hunter green and looks like a child's toy.

My husband and I love this. It throws water a lot further (if you want) than we thought possible and gives good rain--like coverage. My husband is impressed with the quality and is much happier with this than a similar product (that cost more) we purchased from Home Depot. We also like this much more than the long ones that go back and forth/left to right. Another plus, our dogs decided that they love it too. That surprised us because they ran from the other one. This one seems more animal friendly as we've not only got the dogs running thru it, we have been watching the birds flying thru it back and forth. We've also seen some strange buggers deciding that walking thru it and shaking their feathers which they think is the way to go. If for nothing else, the entertainment value of watching our dogs and the birds play in the water is delightful... plus we have planted trees and new growth and this water is fairly gentle and not beating them back. We sat this thing between two apple trees and a plum tree (and you know how far apart you have to plant them) and it covered the whole area very well.

While I am sure the sprinkler is good quality, and will probably last a long time, it doesn't clearly state that it ONLY WORKS WITH HOSES THAT ARE MADE BY "Careful Gardener". Or you need to purchase extra parts, like a quick disconnect in order to use this sprinkler. My other gripe is that the plastic spike it comes with looks so weak that it would probably break the first time you tried to stick in it any thing other than very soft soil.

This sprinkler puts out a lot of water in a short amount of time. If I could only have 1 sprinkler I would choose an oscillating sprinkler over this one because it does not do a good job in the corners and edges. I would say it puts out at least twice if not more water than an oscillating sprinkler however the coverage is also less and circular of course. For the price it isn't a bad deal.

Piece of junk that even after you get the quick release for it. Barely sprays any water, 8 settings it does not have, that is a lie. Sprays out the side and I mean way out the side. If I could give it 0 starts I would. Buyer beware, I will never purchase anything from these scam artist again.

This sprinkler works. The problem I have is that a company that cannot furnish a standard hose connector out of the box to meet the expectations of most custormers does not warrant a good score. I will be very careful to watch for this in the future.. The cost of the connector required to make the sprinkler workable ranges in price from 2.98 to 6.00. This should not be the case for a custormer to pay additional.This should be an upfront cost born by the manufacturer..Bad on part of Ireland.One note that is not a big thing is the sprinkler should have more weight on the bottom to hold sprinkler more stable.

My whole family loves this so much! We set it up under our trampoline, and my kids and my kid's friends all play on it every day. It's a must for hot summer months (especially here in Texas)! It works like a charm. I was worried about the pressure, but it goes through the mesh trampoline fabric so well. I don't think we need to go to the park for splash pad any more. My son never spent this long time jumping on the trampoline. I'm so happy that he gets his work out done every day thanks to this. Sprinkler fun--> Shower! Please vote "helpful" if you like my review! I bought this at a full price, but it's worth every penny!
