Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons
The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

Don't even have to read instructions, very self explanatory. Easy to program and has a few nice features such as rain delay and manual mode with timer. Only negative is that the lcd screen is difficult to read in some light situations.

This is what i have been needing so badly! Bought the timer. Really a great little device.

Gideon timer has two outlets. Works for front yard till sprinkler system is installed. Eco setting allows water to flow for a specified amount of time, shuts off for a few minute so the water can soak in and not just puddle.

This water valve timer does almost every everything. Absolutely has no leakage and does its job as intended. No worries and no leaks.



Cons

With the timer installed, sprinkler sprays only about 2m. Manufacturer doesn't take care of what the description says erroneously. Save yourself the hassle and extra cost and get a better one.

It only works at 7am. Like other reviewers have mentioned, there is no way to set a manual watering without also running the schedule.

    The user manual is easy to follow but i hardly even referred to it because setting it up was very intuitive


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    It even has an eco setting which allows you to intermittently water which allows the water to flow for a specified amount of time shuts off for a few minute so the water can soak in and not just puddle and then repeats


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The only thing i do not like is that when batteries die it fails in the on position


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Would rather have a failsafe setup


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Only suggested improvement would be to be able to set if with an app on a smart phone for example to skip a watering on a rainy day without have to go out in the rain


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    However it does not have the option to stop watering after a certain time each day so it continues watering at regular intervals throughout the night


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    My last timer only lasted a year and a half i hope this one does better


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    It is impossible to completely rate a product after only a few weeks of service
