best timer ever...fool proof...best thing is it is not digital, my digital one lasted 2 months in a greenhouse, moisture (not rain or water), condensation killed it... and it cost almost twice as much...been using this one for 8 month outside in the weather even when I have left the door open during a storm it keeps on working...only one I'll spend my $$ on...only one I will trust my tomatoes to...

works as intended
I like the timer. It works as intended. I do wish they would have made the hanger holes a little bigger so that you could use standard wood screws to hang it from. the holes on the back are a little small for them. Other than that, I like the unit.

power n time
I find this to be a good, well made, reliable product. The timer is accurate, very easy to set your on off times, or to just bypass the timer, just moving 1 switch. plenty of outlets to utilize. The price was extremely reasonable in my opinion.

Easy to use timer
This timer was easy to set the times for on and off and easy to attach the stake. I like the cover over the six outlets to keep out the weather.

Cord is way too short
I like how this outdoor timer has a door to protect the outlets and how easy it is to program the timer. However, I have to say that the cord is ridiculous. I have never seen a cord so short. I have outdoor outlets attached to the house that are only about 10 inches from the ground and the cord was so short that I couldn't even plug it in and put the timer on the stake in the ground. The cord is literally about 6 inches long. I ended up having to use an outdoor extension cord. Had I known the cord was so short, I would not have bought this particular model, but so far it has worked out. I don't see that the cord length was mentioned in the description for this product, but perhaps I missed it. I do recommend this product if you don't care about the cord length.

Excellent Purchase
I bought three of these to operate outdoor lighting around the house. All three work fine. Be careful when setting the on/off times as the timer nubs are small and seem to be a little fragile.

........working great so far
I purchased this to replace a similar product after the timer function wore out after 10+ years of use. I'm using it for some outdoor floodlights. I'd looked at a few other timers, however I prefer the design on this one since the outlets are somewhat protected from the elements by the cover. It was very easy to install and set the timer - it took under 5 minutes, and it has worked fine thus far. I've been using it for about 3 weeks, and hopefully it will last as long as the previous timer

Works great!
The timer is very nice and there is plenty of room to route the cords out of the housing. The stake is simple, but works.

Does what it's designed to do...
Simply move the internal switches to the on / off position, set the time, stick in the ground & you're done!
Couldn't be simpler.

LIGHT UP MY HOUSE.
When I received the timer I just took it out of the box set the time I wanted Iit to go on and off and stuck it in the ground with the stake that I attached easily to the back and plugged it in. I plugged iin the lights that I wanted to go on outside on the house and closed the door on the front of the timer to secure the plugs and never touched it again. I will not have to take it inside until spring.

Just what I needed
Purchased this timer to turn the 1 HP pump in our outdoor fountain on in the morning and off at night. Since I installed it, I've only had to make a few adjustments to the time settings and it's worked fine. I've only the one heavy-duty power cord connected to the timer, so I've not experienced the difficulty experienced by some people trying to connect multiple cords and I knew beforehand that the short power cord for the timer would not be a problem.

This product was just what we needed for our application.
We needed a timer to turn a pump on & off to supply our pond waterfall and this perfectly filled the bill.

Works perfectly
This was pretty easy to set up, it is a little hard to coordinate the time if you are using several, but it seems sturdy and has worked great from the time we first plugged them in. We used to have digital timers, but they didn't last very long before they were impossible to program and useless.

Better have thin-gauge extension cords!
The opening to pass electrical cords into is far too small to be used for more than 2 cords. I purchased this for Christmas lights and was planning on using all 6 outlets, but could not fit more than 2 extension cords through the opening.

Love the product but not the cord
I purchased two of these 3 outlet timers (stake) last year and loved them, so I purchased two more tonight for Christmas lights. But the cords this year are at least 1-2 feet shorter than the two I purchased last year. I looked at the packaging, sure enough 3-foot cord. Well that's not long enough, sorry! You made a mistake Westek!! Love the product but not the cord...

Does what it's supposed to.
Well-built and should last a very long time (unlike the digital timer that this one replaced). Fairly easy to set up and use after a quick look at the instructions. Heavy duty plastic casing and stake are not "bullet proof", but if stronger materials had been used in it's construction the price would have been much higher. Excellent value for the price paid.

Works as advertised!
I use the timer to have a light come on at night to help keep our water pipes from freezing. I don't want to leave the light on all day when its warm or manually cut it of and on everyday, so this fits the bill.

Great product
I can't believe Home Depot doesn't stock this item in it's stores. Best exterior timer on the market. Well built. Can turn things on/off to 1/4 hour. Durable for exterior use.

Mostly good
The timer function is great. It's a useful device. Only problem for me is that the cord to the wall is too short. My outdoor plug is about 2ft up the wall and the cord won't reach far enough for me to put the stake in the ground.

It is just what I needed.
I had purchased another one from Home Depot but it wasn't exactly what I was looking for. I found this one online at Home Depot and ordered it. Delivery was very fast. I use this timer for my pool pump. It is nearly waterproof and has a locking cover so no one can tamper with it. It's very accurate and easy to set up.It also has an overload switch. Plug it into your GFI outlet and your good to go.
