Pros & Cons
Pros
Bit fiddly to set up like most electronic devices these days. You simply press the button and then the menu takes you through. Very easy to programme and no sign of any leaks.
Once the timings andamp; clock are mastered it seems to be working fine (at the moment) & does what it was purchased for. Once it is installed and setup it works brilliantly.
Replacement >£90. This is the obvious choice for any that need replacing. More expensive but feels more robust and easy to read.
This is a great product, made from chunky plastic that feels tough. Great product. Fantastic product. Very pleased with this timer.
Cons
Rubbish just keeps popping off the tap whenever pressure is high. Has almost killed my trees in air-pots several times, as due to the holes require more watering.
Highlights
Quality
Very easy to set up good quality product
Having sat down with the instructions and the timer i cracked the code of programming it
Packaging/appearance
They were stuck in the underneath of the tray the timer was in and didnt fall out when i took it out of the box
Competitiveness
Like it better easier to work than hozelock one weve had a few years
I expected programming it to be a faff and was pleasantly surprised to discover that it is very straightforward
Replaced a hozelock timer that only worked for one season
The supplied male hose connector for the timer was not a watertight connection to my hose but that was easily and quickly cured... Read More

Ive had 3 different water digital timers previously and none has lasted more than 3 seasons even though disconnected and stored inside for the cold weather and all quite expensive

There is a more expensive version of this timer that has a rain sensor to turn off the timer if it rains

And it doesnt say in the write up that there is a means of turning off the rain sensor
