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

Excellent Water Timer! Works perfectly and is very easy to use to schedule your watering needs. Would definitely recommend to others looking for a quality timer.

The RAINPOINT timer works much like Orbit and other brands. The most important thing, for me, is that IT WORKS CONSISTENTLY. Last summer, I purchased three Moistenland timers that either worked briefly, inconsistently, or not at all! RAINPOINT comes with instructions on the box instructing you to operate the timer before using it to activate the internal valve lubricant, ensuring that it will, in fact, work when installed (no such instructions with the Moistenland). It comes with Teflon sealing tape, extra screened hose seals to keep debris from clogging the valve. It also comes with an easy-to-read, quick-start guide that includes a troubleshooting section and phone numbers and email addresses if you need more help.

I haven't had the timer for very long but it has all the essential features and was easy to program and I really like the small form-factor. I'm holding back a star because I haven't owned it long enough to fully evaluate.

I mainly wanted a timer with an easy manual watering option available. The manual watering option remembers the last setting which makes it easy. I set the time to water for 30 minutes and the next time I wanted to water manually, I just pushed the manual button and it was already set to 30 minutes.Everything else worked well and I did not have much trouble connecting it to the faucet or water hose.Not a lot of bells and whistles but I just wanted something simple and easy.

Easy setup working leak free. I use a couple of these and they work very well in keeping up with my garden watering needs. Company stands behind their product also. Recently had an issue with one and moisture penetration messing up the display. They responded to warranty claim promptly and sent out new product to replace the defective. Good product coupled with great service after the sale. What are you waiting for...

This rain point 1 zone water timer works great and is easy to setup and install. I’ve tested both the manual mode and the set schedule mode. The scheduled mode turned on and off when it was supposed to and the manual mode easily let me add an additional watering whenever I wanted. This timer would be good to automate watering for one area that needs the same watering schedule, as it has one hose attachment and allows you to setup one watering schedule. One thing to note is that there is no wifi connection on this timer( some of the rain point timers do have wifi) so if you need to change the schedule often, this is probably not the model for you. I think of this as ideal for an area that can have a one time set and forget schedule for the growing season. The rain delay is a nice feature but I’ probably won’t remember to go outside to manually turn on the delay on each time it rains, so I’m not sure how much use I’ll get out if it. The brass hardware is also nice. I like the look. I feel like the plastic degrades overtime and becomes brittle with the summer heat/UV light, I do not have any concerns about that happening at this connection site.Directions- there are two sets of directions. A quick start guide and a user manual. I recommend going directly to the user manual as it was easier to understand exactly what to do. It took about 20 min reading the manual and setting up the timer /watering schedule before brining it outside and attaching it to the faucet. The instructions were clear and the setup process was quick and easy to implement. I did not have any parts of the directions that I found confusing. There is a setup video online also if you prefer not to read the instructions.I appreciate that it comes with an extra filter, washers, and the teflon that is recommended to put around the hose threads. Not everyone would would think of adding the teflon or have it handy. The only thing that you need to provide yourself are two AAA batteries. I also appreciate the efficient packaging, there is minimal waste and packaging is cardboard that can be recycled.Overall, I would definitely recommend this product if you have an area that you want to automatically water that needs only one hose and would be successful on the same watering schedule.

So far, this time has performed as expected. It was easy to set up and the instructions were well written. I first set it to water daily but then decided to go with every 3 days. Changing the frequency was simple and it did not require me to set up everyone all over again. A simple turn of the dial and switching to longer frequencies was all it took. The unit was built to be waterproof so there is no concern yet with the display collecting water. Also, the timer had a good seal on the faucet, with no water leaking. I did use a little bit of teflon tape to be sure. The unit seems to be durable, but time will tell. I will update my review if there are any problems.
