Orbit 58322 Traveling Sprinkler, Green (Traveling Sprinkler)

Works well, super rugged material. One item that is important to note, you have to mess with the angles of the sprayers in order to find the maximum diameter of spraying. If you angle them up, the spray zone is larger. This is outlined in the instructions. Also, the longer the hose and less water pressure, the less diameter of sprinkling which is probably common sense to most but took me a while to discover for some reason. I’ve found the sweet spot to be 50 ft of hose or less.

So far, I am liking this sprinkler. I have watered my entire lawn with the only effort being running the hose. The shut off ramp works as it should. I am hoping that I do not experience the transmission issues that I have read in the reviews. So far, 5 stars. :)

Great product, very heavy and well made. Takes me back to when I was a kid in the 60s, my mom had one and we used to have a blast with it in the summer.

I don't want to get an in-ground sprinkler system put in but I also don't want my entire lawn to die when it gets really dry out. This tractor sprinkler seems like a pretty good compromise. Some cautions about using it.Be prepared to spend some time figuring out how it works on your lawn and on your property. The shape of your property, hills, divots, humps, etc. can all impact how it works. It has to drag the hose behind it so you have to plan ahead to think about where and how it will be dragging the hose when it has been running for a while.Get yourself a long hose and a quick release adaptor. If you want to water a 100 ft stretch of grass you'll likely need a 125ft length of hose to do it comfortably. That's a lot of hose, it's heavy and unwieldy to work with. This tractor is not quick and convenient so be prepared for that.For the first several uses you'll be figuring out how it runs, how to point the sprayers, whether you want the high or low setting and whether the automatic shut off works as expected. Be prepared to babysit it for the first several runs and to get a little wet in the process. One way to aim the spray where you want it is to hold the sprayer and twist the arms until the spray is landing exactly where you want it...if you don't have a helper you're going to get wet.The initial investment of time in figuring out how to get this to run smoothly is pretty high. If you don't want to water your neighbor's lawn you have to take a fair bit of time getting the angles of the sprayers right and if you move it to a larger area you have to fiddle with the sprayers again to get the right angle. If you have one uniform sized strip of grass to water this tractor will be pretty easy to figure out. If you have a larger property with several differently shaped stretches of grass it quickly becomes harder and harder.Having said all that, it DOES work and certainly does beat standing out in the grass with a sprayer for 2 hours.

I'm very impressed with this little sprinkler so far. I have nearly an acre of grass, and putting in an underground system would cost a fortune. On the other hand I didn't want to be a slave to having to constantly move a sprinkler around, so I thought I'd give this little guy a chance. So far I absolutely love it. It went off the track twice the first time I used it, but since then it's been perfect. I'm using 200' of hose and other than that first usage it's stayed on the track perfectly. You still have to set it up and make sure the hose is laid out properly of course, but it beats having to move a sprinkler around constantly. I've only had it a couple of week so I can't speak to the longevity, but so far it's highly recommended.

This tractor sprinkler works great. I had one before so I knew it would. Sure is a lot better to let it dragged the hose then for me to have to drag the hose and it covers more area quicker than I do.

The media could not be loaded. To be fair I've only had this thing for about a week... but boy has it been a good week. I live in a very dry climate but I have to grow certain kinds of grasses for my tortoises. I purchased this thing because I just couldn't get to installing a sprinkler system this year. It actually does a really good job of following the hose and watering the lawn.I think there could be improvements made to the way it follows the hose, but honestly it works really well regardless. I would definitely buy again. Well worth the money. You can adjust how big of an area you want watered based on the angles of the spouts. Because I don't have a ton of water pressure, mine moves really slow. I set it so that it's watering everything far away from it so that it's not muddy by the time it gets to the watered areas in front of it. It works well for our dry climate. The body of it is made of metal and is actually really heavy and seems well made.Because our water pressure is a little low it also doesn't cover a ginormous area, but it covers enough for us. I love how it's designed to turn itself off when it goes over the ramp. So far I haven't had any mishaps where it does not turn off. I will try to update next year because most gardening equipment here in New Mexico doesn't last more than a year
