Leaked after 1.5 years of use
Easy to use and setup, but leaked, after a year and a half of use, in the space between the metal and plastic water intake hose. The leak is where those two components join on the device itself so it’s essentially broken. It was brought indoors during the winter so no components ever froze. Disappointing- I have 3 of these and am now just waiting for the other two to croak. Too expensive to have to replace every or every other year. Looking at the Husky Wi-Fi.

    Easy to set the schedule. I'm not sure if it is actually working, though, because it's been raining out. I had one for several years that worked until the last few months, then bought a new one.

    This product only lasted 3 months
    I bought the Orbit Model 62056. Installed it on an outdoor faucet to water my fruit trees. I lasted about 2 months on 1 set of batteries. I installed a new set of batteries and it no longer works. Tried resetting it and it would no longer program nor operate in manual mode. No display come up. I lost my receipt so I can't return it for a replacement.

      Cost me hundreds to thousands
      We own a plant nursery and bought several of these timers a few months ago. None have been operating under temperatures of 40 degrees F. This is the 2nd time we arrive at our nursery and it is FLOODED because the timer NEVER turned off. These timers have cost us hundreds to thousands on our water bill in 2 floods and they are only a FEW MONTHS OLD!!!!!

        Get the warranty
        Mine worked for about 4 months, then stopped. Display shows time but won't respond to set keys and won't control anything. No base warrenty so I'm going to get something else.

          Remove Metal Screen For Better Performance
          When I first connected the unit, there was tremendous water pressure inside the unit but very low water flow even at full setting. I could tell this scenario would lead to a major fail eventually. I took out the metal screen and gasket and replaced it with a regular rubber gasket and that fixed the problem. I connected the timer to my faucet and ran a hose to my inground pool. The timer adds a few minutes of water to the pool daily so the pool pump will work, even when we are on vacation.

            The the timer is easy really easy to set and use. The big problem is that it leaks where it attaches to the faucet, so I can't leave the water on, making the whole automatic timer thing useless.

            Save your receipt
            Get your money back and thank me later. This valve lasted 1 month and the part time workers at orbit are a nightmare to deal with when it breaks and your garden dies. Good luck and happy gardening!

              So far this is working perfectly and I love it! It saves me a tremendous amount of time in terms of not having to set a reminder to turn off the water hose. I plan to purchase another one to cover the other half of the yard to avoid the need to move the sprinkler from one section to another.

              This is the second Orbit 1 port Irrigation controller returned. Both did not shut off causing water to run in the street. A no-no where I live
