So my wife wanted a patio mister which I installed for her, but I hate having to walk way over to the faucet to turn the mister on and off. Also, we have an above ground pool and on more than one occasion I have forgot to turn the water off and flooded the backyard. This sweet little device solves both problems. It works with Alexa, (and Google) so now I can just throw the hose in the pool and tell Alexa turn on Zone 1 Hose for 30 minutes, so even if I forget it turns off the hose in 30 minutes. For the mister same thing I just tell Alexa to turn on zone 2 mister. The connectivity is excellent, I’ve never had it drop the connection and give me that dreaded Alexa message “xxx isn’t responding, please check it’s network connection and power supply” which is important when your dealing with something that is controlling the water. I had it hooked up all summer and then brought it in the house for winter. When spring started I hooked it back up and several weeks later it started to leak, (I think my daughter may have jerked the hose). I reached out to the company and they had me walk through some troubleshooting steps and when that didn’t correct it they sent me a brand new unit. The only thing you need to be aware of is the connection pieces are plastic, so you don’t want to place any unnecessary strain on it like pulling on the hose. If you prefer they also sell one with a metal faucet attachment for a little more money. If your going to put this someplace where it might get pulled on I suggest adding some kind of strain relief. If your in the market for a device like this don’t hesitate this is a good one with great customer support.

This is a excellent product. I have my outside water tap attached through the timer to my irrigation piping. The timer is controlled via a bluetooth gateway which MUST be within bluetooth distance of the timer and this gateway is then accesses via your wifi network. This allows the timer to be controlled from anywhere in the world where you have an internet connection via the SmartLife app. Note that I originally had the gateway about 2 meters from the timer but the bluetooth signal would not get through the house walls. After moving the gateway closer to the timer, but still inside the house, everything is working fine. Many thanks to Alice on customer support who helped me figure out that the distance was an issue – excellent service. The app allows you to set single or multiple timings and has a really useful rain delay feature so you can delay watering for a number of days during dodgy weather! I can now turn on/off and set different timing patterns and rain delays whenever I am away from the house. The app also shows an audit of the valve opening times. Having 2 exit valves allows one to remain available for when I want to connect the hose and wash my car! I would thoroughly recommend this timer and actually about to buy another to use in the mother-in-laws garden.

Ich kann nur positives dazu sagen.
Die Instalation war simple und es hat auf Anhieb geklappt. Es hat keine 5 Minuten gedauert und ich konnte das Wasser mit dem Handy an und aus machen. Das Kind im Mann freut sich bei solchen Sachen.
Es waren auch direkt Reduzierstücke dabei. Passt also auf so gut wie jeden Aussenwasserhahn mit Gewinde!

I the first timer I received did not work. Customer service contacted and sent a replacement with in a day. I was surprised they reached out to me to be honest. The second timer has been installed and I am currently testing to make sure the timer function works properly.
Update: chose the 2 hose timer as I had a full yard of grass seed to water and also drip irrigation. This is set up at outlet summer cottage and we are not there to turn the water on and off daily. I wanted something that had a rain delay as I did not want to waste water as well. This has wifi that was easy to set up. The app lets me control all the functions 5 hours away. Our grass a new shrubs are thriving now that we have a reliable water routine from hundreds on miles away. 5 stars! Highly recommend.

I had previously left a lower score, I’ve raised to 4 stars. I could only connect via Bluetooth, I can now connect with wifi anywhere which is what I required. The unit works well, time will tell how long it lasts exposed to outdoor elements. The price was very reasonable making it a good value. However, the instructions included need improved upon as they are not well wriiten. I would like more in depth detail regarding included features such as the rain delay which was not explained. All on all I do recommend the product given its price.

1. App Easy to setup , the app is very clear to use. I like the feature that it forecast the next watering time and save watering history. These records help ease my worry on whether the watering was actually done properly. I had a similar product from other vendor (without water records) that occasionally skip watering and caused my plants to die. This product is way better!
2. no leaks on first setup. smooth and neat.
3. works as intended. I am away from my home for weeks. My plants are happy and healthy as usual. This water timer is a garden saver.
4. Customer service are fast on responding questions

We purchased this to be able to turn on our sprinkler when we were on vacation. We wanted to do it on demand based on the rain. The app only worked at our house! When we left our home WiFi area, it didn’t work.

WIFI Timer works great – using it in front lawn.
So easy to use. Wish there was a 4 zone model available for backyard. I have a 4 zone manual Melnor timer which is a pain to setup or to modify!
This one is Sooooo Goooood!

I travel a lot, and I like gardening. But I didn’t build my garden until I got this product, which allow me to water my garden when I am on the road. The product looks neat, and well built. Setup is simple and easy. Downloading the app and adding the device took me less than 10 minutes. I hooked the two 100-foot soaker hoses with water pressure regulator. It took me a while to figure out how to manually turn on/off the water using the app. The manual doesn’t seem to mention that or I just didn’t find the information. I emailed to the customer support. Just like lots of other reviewers mentioned. Alice is great! Quick response, very informative and very helpful. Great customer service is always the important thing I am looking for when I read reviews. A Youtube review video also helped. Just touch the app device screen’s faucet icons to turn on/off water. The icons display the watering status and off status. very nice. I set watering schedule for everyday, but only enable it when I think watering is needed. When I am on travel, I check my hometown weather and adjust the setting accordingly. My installation has no water leaking issue. The water seal of this type connector is relying on the inside rubber wash. Teflon tape should NOT be used. On my experience, wrapping teflon tape around the connector threads actually cause water leaking.

Overall, the product is well-built and does a perfect job of what it is supposed to do.
I was able to download the app, connect it, and set up timing and everything within 10 minutes. Instead of going outside three days a day to water, I control the watering in my desk. What a time saver!
The customer service could not be any better. Great great communication.
One minor issue I had was that the app showed the temperature in the weather forecast in F, whereas I use C in Canada. I contacted customer support, and Alice in the CS team responded almost in real-time with a detailed screenshot showing how to change the setting. I am considering buying one more for my backyard.
