Editorial Reviews:
Amazon.com Product Description Incredibly easy to use, this electric lawn and garden timer from Gilmour keeps your yard looking its best, even during hot summer months. The two-dial system with electronic keypad is a snap to set: Simply press Enter and listen for the audio beep to confirm program entry; the system will then repeat the watering cycle at the interval set. You can set the program to repeat every 24 hours or you can set it to skip a day. You can also choose a repeat interval from once every six hours up to once every seventh day, and you can set the watering duration from two minutes up to 120 minutes. There are also manual on/off settings that let you water exactly how often you wish, and a swivel nut for easy connection to the faucet. The timer requires two AA alkaline batteries (not included).

Gilmour Timer for Drip System August 27, 2008 I have found this product to be easy to use. Consistently dependable. I have purchased three of these timers. After one year one stopped working so I bought the fourth. So far it is working well, as are the other two that I am using now. The store where I purchased the timers no longer sells them. That is when I went online and foumd them through Amazon.
Sub-standard product August 26, 2008 I purchased this product and rush shipped it so that I could install it before I went out of town. I spent about an hour trying different things to make it work and I was totally disappointed. I wasted my time. I understand that things could go wrong with products. I got a taste of what the company thinks about their product when I called the Gilmour customer service the next day. The customer rep suggested that I buy another model of their product which is more reliable. Reading between the lines 'We do not trust our products'. They should not be in this business if they do not trust their own products.
I am disappointed that Amazon carries such products! Amazon agreed to credit me for the product. Who will pay for the wasted time!
Bad valve August 11, 2008 Worked well first year. Next year the valve would not shut off water and allowed for unwanted slow and steady stream. Also, it tends to freeze up if you play with the buttons too much. The remedy is to take out the batteries for a few minutes.
Very good product July 25, 2008 The Gilmour Electric Water Timer is a quick and easy way to get your watering on a regular schedule. I had invested a significant amount of money and effort in soaker hoses and needed a way to regularly water my vegetable garden without forgetting to turn the water off each time! I have this water timer setup to water every 12 hours (morning and evening) for 20 minutes. It works great.
Battery cover leaks July 25, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I purchased 4 of these last year and only one is functional this year. The problem is the battery cover leaks water in which ruins the timer. Also, the start button is really difficult to push. I'm trying a different model this year.
