these sprinklers are great. best of both worlds, easy to install with the convenience of having set sprinklers underground. set them the first time and never worry about them again. i have four in the back yard and two in the front. can’t tell anything is there until you need to water the lawn. great product!!! one thought on the design of your product. i would suggest that the protective cup was open on one end and the other had a hole large enough for the connection end to pass through. maybe have a few small holes for water to drain through. this would give the protection cup more stability in the ground with the added weight the gravel/soil would provide in holding the protection cup underground, especially when going to remove the cap for watering. just a thought, thanks again!!

Thank you for the comment and suggestion.
We have an improved Connection Protection Shell working its way into the supply chain now. It has a taper instead of a straight side that gets a bit larger as it goes deeper into the ground. Once installed, the angled side of the new shell allows the dirt to hold it more firmly in the ground.

Great system, so easy to install and use. Customer service has been great and when we needed to order covers were pleasantly surprised that postage was so reasonable. Thanks for an excellent product.

Hi, is there a way to link several of these stations via underground pipe? Thinking lazy about only having to connect the hose to one station…

Thank you for your interest in the Watering Made Easy Sprinkler Stations.
Most people place a splitter at the spigot and then bring a hose to each sprinkler.
Some people have run a hose as a header, using hose mend kits and y-splitters to make the tees for the branches to the sprinklers, however this can cause problems with pressure drop along the main hose and cause the sprinklers to fail to rotate properly. Keep in mind that the Original Sprinkler Station uses about 2.5 Gallons of Water per Minute (GPM) so one or two can be run at the same time at most homes. More than that and there is often not enough water supply to allow the sprinklers to rotate properly.
Generally speaking we recommend using one hose for one sprinkler.

sprinkler works great but I would suggest locating it at the edge of the area to be watered and not in the center. with center placement using 360degree rotation the water hose gets in the way of the spray. next time I install one, I will put it at the edge with the quick connect on the side that does not need to be watered and use a 180degree rotation or install it in a corner with the quick connect away from the area to be watered. product good enough and convenient enough to warrent having several in my yard.

Hello WME…
I originally purchased only 2 of your units to see how well they worked. We have a 1/2 Acre corner lot with 3 driveways, so there is a lot of odd-sized areas to cover.
I was very pleased with the ease of installation and how fast each unit is to setup and cover exactly where the water needs to be. No extra spray going into the street or running down the driveways. I went back to the store and purchased 4 more units
to cover the rest of the front yard. I will be purchase an additional 6 units by the bulk case that you offer to the end-user. I have the back yard area to cover now. I want the customers who are considering a purchase of these units - I highly reccommend this product. I have had the units installed for now 2 summers and 2 winters. I haven’t had a single problem with any unit. I have made sure the units were empty and dry before freezing weather set in. Thnak you for designing and producing an excellent product. I will submit my order for the case of 6 units shortly.
