Works very well

Good quality; has a lockout lever to prevent unwanted continuous-on setting. The knob is easy to turn; great for those of us with arthritis.

Disappointed in the description, based on what I received.

This is strictly mechanical. You turn the dial to the length of time you want and it turns off when it winds down. That's all it does.

You cannot program this to water for a length of time, certain days, or a number of times.

It's not what I needed. Should have read the whole description for sure.

Simple, reliable, a cost saver.

Identical to more expensive units, just a name change on the casing. These are simple timers. They are well designed and there is little to go wrong. You can start your hose watering and if you forget it the hose doesn't run forever. Read full review

Orbit Underground Mechanical Water Timer

Use this for washing machine.. renter didn't shut off water, hose broke, water loss was costly.
Everytime he needs to do laundry, the timer has to be turned on and it shuts off automatically.
This was the answer for turning off the water when not in use....Read full review

Great

I don't know why they call it an Underground timer because it definitely is not for underground use unless it's in a box. We attach it to the faucet & attach the hose to the other side and set it to water. It sure helps us keep from running the well dry which we formerly did when forgetting to turn the water off. Now this turns it off for us.Read full review

Water timer

A must have if you use a lawn sprinkler. This one is cheap & durable. The last one worked for about 5 years and was still working good until it was bumped. It is plastic and it cracked near the water valve fitting.Read full review

Good for now.

I have only used it for a few day, but it works fine. It has a smooth action when you set the dial. Time will tell if it lasts. Orbit's timers go bad in 12 to 18 months. When they fail, they do not shut off, and a lot of water can be wasted.Read full review

Never forget to turn off outside watering

I needed this! Works like a charm. No more forgetting to turn off the water and having the pool overflow!

The better water flow rate makes a difference.

This timer has much better flow rate than others I have tried. When we ran over it, I got a more expensive timer but it restricted the water volume so much I didn't use it and got another Green Thumb.Read full review

badly needed

This stops my inadvertantly leaving the hose running for hours, when I actually wanted to soak the new tree for 15 minutes.
