3 out of 5 stars Not many options out there but this is decent   January 27, 2007

OK first the pros, this will save you a lot of time compared with the "pull out the hose and spray it around" method. A lot of time. And your patio plants will love you for it too--I grow tomatoes, herbs, and flowers on my patio and all my little ones produced much better when I got this (with less water waste).

The downside... The attachment from the spigot to the machine always leaked. I couldnt' get it to fit perfectly right, despite trying everything in the manual. It would be really nice if they also included a rubber tube or something to fit over the threads and the end of the tube that attaches to the spigot to make sure nothing leaks.
The machine itself also conked out after about a year...I changed the battery and everything, but it never worked right again. I did buy another, but if there was another option out there I probably would have gone with a different brand.

It is 1/4 inch tubing and all accessories, not 1/2 inch. Repeat, there is no 1/2 tubing with this kit. The only way it differs from the much cheaper container kit (R552D) is that this one includes an automatic timer.
After looking at reviews for the included timer here at Amazon, I would probably just get the cheaper kit at $20, and get a better rated timer from another company.



4 out of 5 stars Easy set up, works well!   June 2, 2007

This is a lot easier to set up than you'd think looking at the directions on the back of the box. It's highly customizable, so as you get more plants, and want more extensions, they are easy to add. The connector to the faucet does drip at bit, but thats not a big deal. There is not a single leak of any sort in my 20x15 patio, so thats really what matters. I'm getting a second kit for my front yard too, its so simple. I found this product for $35 at Lowes.


4 out of 5 stars Happy with it ...   July 19, 2007

We've had the system for about a month & we're happy we purchased it.

The system was somewhat easy to set up, although we did need to spend extra time re-adjusting the flow. Despite using almost all of the tubing, there are no leaks. The timer is wonderful! Just came home from a 2-week vacation & all of the deck plants are healthy.

We have 15 pots on the system and needed to remove the flow control to push water to the end plants. Watering 20 plants might be optimistic.



4 out of 5 stars Good starter kit   April 27, 2008

This is a good starter kit and very easily expandable with readily available items at Home Depot or Lowes. I have 15 large containers (tomatoes, peppers, etc.) and ended up buying 1/2 feeder hose and using the 1/4 inch hose in the kit to branch off to each container in order to maintain equal pressure to each plant. Still - it gets you started.
