For me the Hozelock made more sense but if you need a tailored solution I have no hesitation recommending this unit. I noticed I needed to flatten out my garden sprinkler before it would operate nicely, if I just threw it on uneven ground (as you can see it’s a bit lumpy in the pictures) then I struggled as it moved about a bit.

There’s neutral which let’s you move the tractor around freely, back and forth, and then there are low and high gears. We also offer options that are made with 100% recycled plastic to help you do your bit for an environment friendly living. Weighing close to 800 grams, you don’t even need to use ground spikes to secure it onto your lawn like you do with the Karcher.You can also adjust the water flow rate with the very responsive dial, which means you can adjust the coverage even further by increasing or lowing the water pressure. For example, while you can adjust the coverage of the 20 jets, you can’t switch them off individually like you can with the Karcher. It has proven to give great coverage with normal water pressure, and its adjustments for width, length, and flow rate are really useful.

Don’t underestimate it however, it’s small design doesn’t compromise its 360 degree coverage nor its impressive 16 nozzle sprays that boast a powerful jet. This is why watering in the morning is most optimal – the plants absorb the water and make use of it during the peak sunlight hours of the day, meaning they are dry by nightfall.On top of that, there’s a handy little feature that allows you to block the jets closest to you while you make your adjustments. The Kärcher Oscillating Sprinkler comes with a knob for adjusting the water pressure so you don’t need to stand at a tap while selecting the most suitable squirt distance. Welcome to my site, my name is John and I have been lucky enough to work in horticultural nurseries for over 15 years in the UK.

GRÜNTEK's PRIMAVERA Series 51 sprinkler is a rectangular sprinkler specially designed for both medium- and large-sized rectangular lawns with an area of up to 462 m² (depending on water pressure). For this reason, we'd suggest that when using a garden sprinkler you check the optimum time to irrigate. Unfortunately, we didn’t get to test it out in cold conditions, but we can confirm that it drained most of the water out quickly. It’ll cheerfully send water flying a good 7m or 8m away and, despite sitting at near-ground height, clear any fences or hedges in the way.

We suspect it won’t last as long as some of our contenders, but it’s a decent, budget sprinkler that’s fine for a small lawn or garden. Paths, driveways, fences and even pets could do with a hose down at times, so it's worth thinking about how far your sprinkler settings can stretch. Yet what's impressive is its four spray settings that range from a powerful single spray for direct watering, to a light mist to shower over delicate flowers.

The sled-shaped base keeps it stable, even on rough ground, and there’s a standard Hozelock fitting for attaching the hose. I have been using this Costwise Pro Oscillating Bar Sprinkler myself for over 3 years now, and it’s still like new. Unlike your average common or garden oscillator, this one comes with a full complement of bells and whistles. Keep your lawns lush and healthy with our amazing selection of water sprinklers and other garden tools. While we haven't tested this sprinkler for ourselves, many reviewers deem it practical and reliable, with the colour taking the biggest hit.

I have been using lawn sprinklers for over 20 years and have tested many different garden sprinklers from companies such as Hozelock, Karcher, cheap supermarket sprinklers; and my latest test sprinkler was the Gardena premium oscillating sprinkler, as shown in my picture below. On the model above and below, you can just spray between 25 and 360 degrees which is great if you want to position against a fence or need to water a small section of lawn. Important: Your debit or credit card will NOT be charged when you start your free trial or if you cancel during the trial period. There is a sight downside to this design though, and that is if your hose is the type to create bumps and kinks in itself, as this will cause the tractor to get jammed and stop moving. Das Gerät läuft bei uns zwischen 6 und 12 Stunden in der Woche und das seit 4 Monaten ohne Probleme.
