Gardena Vanningscomputer Flex

I bought two of these and they have both worked well this season. Four stars as I find all water control systems take a while to figure out the settings, but once these were done they have worked as expected. Running the over-ride for extra quick watering is useful. I expect to disconnect them and put away until the spring to avoid winter frost/ice damage. Recommended as a quality product

This timer has worked reliably all summer watering our potted plants so, very pleased.

Seems to work fine initially - but after a year the seals go inside - which means it leaks....

I am on my third purchase now ( can’t for the life of me think the latest one will last) After 6months the programer facia goes blank , nothing to do with the battery, so I take it off fiddle about for a day, and the it works again, for a month and then does the same again, has happened to 2 I have previously bought. The trouble is the concept and ease of setting up is so good I keep thinking I must be unlucky with the ones I’ve received.

It leaked by the spigot. My home's water pressure is higher than recommended, (80 psi vs 110 psi) and caused other timers to fail. The timer is rated for 12 bar or about ~174 PSI. I was excited to purchase what I assumed to be a well engineered product. I am very disappointed. The point of failure was between the cheap plastic part and the spigot. A Lowes timer (which was half the price) was made of brass and did not leak. I will be returning the product and will not recommend this. If you have a normal water pressure this product may work, and the timer seemed to have neat features, but none that I could use.
