Gardena Turbo Drive Sprinkler on a Sled #36850 6

Customer Reviews

Awesome product

2008-10-02
This is a sprinkler that really delivers. Here in California we need to be water misers and this sprinkler helps me accomplish that. The spray on this puts out large droplets which reduce evaporation and gets the water where its needed to be, on the lawn. Also, it is VERY quiet which for me a big plus. I have a Gardenia impulse, sled style, sprinkler that I have used for over 20 years and it still works! So, this is a great buy all around - performance + reliability.

Nice Sprinkler

I bought this sprinkler hoping that I could bring in a nice lawn without an inground sprinkler system. It does work nice and is very quiet, however, the distribution of water seems much greater at the end of the stream than in the middle. Otherwise it is a nice sprinkler.

quiet but hard to adjust

2008-07-07
This little sprinkler worked fine and was very quiet, but adjusting the rings to get the spray coverage I wanted was somewhat difficult and seemed a bit counter-intuitive. I don't know how long it would have lasted because my wife drove her car over it. It was not designed for that type of abuse!

watch the movie, water pressure must be very high to go far.

Watch Video Here: http://www.amazon.com/review/R5PHWL0YSHC3E gardena sprinkler video . it does not shoot very far, much less than the pulsating ones. and it seems to put all the water out far away from the head, not close to it. not worth the high cost even with a lifetime warranty.

Great Sprinkler!

After using another Gardena oscillating sprinkler for years (My wife even love's it and she's usually the lucky one who gets to move it all summer) We decided to take a chance on this style sprinkler after my Brass beauty with a metal spike went South on me last week.
Well, I am here to report that after one week that it too is an awesome machine. I love it, easy as heck to set up and it puts out a lot of water, I thought it might be a bit wimpy from the looks of it but no mon Frere, this is one serious watering machine!
Another added bonus that I wasn't even aware of until it arrived is that it has a lifetime warranty.
Definitely worth the $ 20.95 I paid.

Free shipping and it arrived in about 3 days!
Perfect!
Oh yeah and it's quiet... none of the noise of the traditional impact sprayer.
German engineering at work once again, you gotta love it...
Get it and watch your lawn grow, you'll love it!

Not good

2007-07-24
This plastic, silent-operation sprinkler is good for morning watering of medium-to-large lawns and gardens. It can water anywhere from a 20- to 80-foot-diameter area (up to 5,000 square feet) with its two-stage watering system, which consecutively waters short and longer ranges, with circle coverage adjustable from 20 to the full 360 degrees of arc. This sprinkler can also be connected to others in a series for irrigating larger areas, and it performs well even at water pressures as low as 14 psi.

Excellent Super Quiet Sprinkler

This is the best sprinkler I have every purchase. I have at least 10 old ones. It is easily adjustable and covers a large or small area. It's a must for a homeowner. The construction is also durable and well assembled. Get one or two!!

Works really well for me...

This sprinkler works amazingly well. I went on to purchase additional sprinklers just like this one.

Gardenia Sprinkler

2007-05-29
We've been using this sprinkler for about a month, and it works great so far. We have a pretty odd shaped lawn so we move it around a lot, and love how easy it is to set the distance of the stream as well as the rotation degree. It works as promised, quietly and evenly. I would recommend this product to anyone.

Just don't ever drop it

2006-04-07
Based on the reviews at this site, I bought 2 of these. THey work fine, but if you drop one, even on very soft ground the little pieces fly off - there are 3 or 4 of them - and they don't appear to be re-attachable. I dropped it while removing it from the hose. That can't be all that unusual a mishap. If you're sure you'll never ever drop the thing, then it's ok.
