Cast Iron Body : ) Plastic Drive : ( Aug 12, 2008
This sprinkler I bought to water a large backyard, approx 180ft x 60ft, "L" shaped. After some adjusting the arms to get the thing to go, It does about 45ft wide path. I have a well/pump for water pressure so it would be better with higher pressure. I have a lot of nightcrawlers, so the yard is pretty bumpy with worm mounds. This poses a problem for the auto shut off feature, where the tractor is cast iron and heavy. It shuts off on worm mounds if the hose is over the top of one and the wheels drop off of some at the same time. I usually walk the length of the hose, heel/toe, to smash it in some. That works. Usually.
The drive wheels are plastic. So is the "tee" which the arms connect to. I have just repaired a drive wheel with a steel slotted hub I welded up since it won't go anywhere in one-wheel-peel. The wheel/hub is plastic and is bound to break. Driven by a steel pin through the steel axle. When it jumps the track and heads for something solid, hope it will dig a couple of trenches and shut itself off before ripping the drive wheel(s) up. As soon as that was fixed (it worked), I broke the 'tee' to the arms. I have no idea why this $100 sprinkler is made with plastic. I'll fix it with something steel, and be a bit more careful not to rip off the drive hub on the remaining plastic wheel or snap off the remaining plastic arm pivot/tee. It will not go the advertised 200ft. Probably a good 50-60ft straight before getting dragged down with the weight of the hose. I've heard it popping, like the gear drive is slipping, and sometimes it just plain stops turning.
It does a fine job of watering. I keep tabs every hour or so. Big drops, and it seems to be better than regular sprinklers when watering in the day. Soaks in better and lots of coverage. Just wish the major parts were at least pot metal.
missleading picture Sep 14, 2007
The sprinkler arms are not, repeat not, as shown on picture, thus making it harder to adjust spray pattern.
Quite a dissapointment to me. Otherwise a good product.

Perfect for straight hose path Apr 21, 2005
I bought this thinking that I would save time by watering my huge lawn. I got it home, easy to assemble and setup. I laid out the path using the recommended hose diameter (5/8). Following the instructions I laid out the hose pattern with curves. Turn the sprinkler on and it followed the hose pattern up until the curve came. Then it jumped the hose and kept going straight right into the fence. So I put it back on the hose and turned the wheels to follow the curve, and it started going on the hose and jumped again. The front wheel to me seems very hard to turn and I'm guessing that is why it kept jumping. My review is that this works great when the pattern of the hose is a straight line. It keeps jumping when the pattern has curves. I wouldn't recommend this unless you have a narrow lawn.
