Great Sprinkler!
Great Sprinkler! Easy to adjust width, height, and tight places for efficient watering. The parts easily tighten to eliminate leaks. Innovative design and sturdy construction makes this sprinkler stand out. I ordered a 2nd one right away to give as a gift! -
NOT a high quality product.
Things I like about this sprinkler:
1) The 4 spray patterns. There is one that fits most of the watering solutions I need.
2) The metal base. Although only pot metal, it's hefty and holds the sprinler in place. (see number 2 below)
Things I don't like about this sprinkler:
1) CHEAPLY MADE. This is NOT a quality constructed tool. Not sure why Garrett Wade even carries it. Not up to my expectation of their standards.
2) The head is all plastic
3) Leaks at the base of the head. Nearly more water comes out around the base of the head than the nozzles reducing pressure and coverage distance. -
Disappointed
Disappointed in the power, hence distance -
Very Fragile
I purchased this sprinkler two years ago. I have a rather large yard and run sprinklers everyday. Although the patterns were nice there is one major design flaw with this unit, if you happen to drop it on it's head the sprinkler breaks where it connects to the base. I dropped the first sprinkler on soft grass and it broke right off. Garrett Wade replaced it with no questions. I received the replacement unit knowing how fragile it was. This summer I went out to the garden treating the sprinkler like it was a new born baby. I connected the quick release connection and picked up the hose. Unfortunately the quick connect was not totally engaged and it feel to the grass and broke in the exact same place. Garrett Wade agreed to refund my money but I write this review to inform folks of my experience wit this product. -
Lacking
Coverage area not as good as I expected.

A keeper
How many sprinklers have I owned...spinning ones, oscillating ones, pulsing ones. A new one every year or so and then they die, malfunction, or simply refuse to sprinkle. Now the German Circular sprinkler is already clearly superior. Its wide circular base assures that it will not fall over and add a years worth of water to a couple of square inches. Its easy to set directional mechanism and height adjustment puts water where I want it without having to run a gauntlet of spray to adjust with the water running. Wonderful design, superb engineering...Talk to me in 10 years. I think it will be doing just fine. -

great item -
Set to spray three shade gardens - East Texas
I set up mine to sweep three shade gardens in a pass. Took a while to find the right water flow pattern and pressure. Love the low volume function. Uses less water than expected. Watered the three beds nicely. Semi-random pattern of spraying water is nice coverage. -
The best sprinkler ever!
High quality, well made metal construction, reached the ENTIRE yard and has multiple patterns and adjustments. -
I like brass
Yes it's quiet and cute and it does have 2 worthwhie spray patterns. Sending a single stream a long distance with very little water inbetween seems odd. Interesting concept but I see that a good brass pulse sprinkler still offers many more spray options. With the added benefit of metronomic sussuration. . . . -
Sprinkler works great!
It works great and I love it. I think it will hold up to the extreme heat and sun in southern New Mexico.
BUT: I agree: where is the instruction manual? The controls for the degrees of a circle are a little confusing, and what is that cute red slider button for?

Exquisite Functionality
I was a bit dubious when I first opened the box and wondered if this would really be the sprinkler that could hold up to our harsh Texas weather that a half dozen other styles of sprinklers had not. The weight and strength of this sprinkler made it clear this is one that would last. The controls are simple to operate and effective--when you put them in a spot they stay, the coverage is well controlled and the water goes exactly where you want. bogie -
Sprinkler
Great product. Quality with reliability. Tremendous value over time. -
Were's the Instruction Manual
Seems to work well, but I am not sure I am using it optimally. Could use more info than three vague pictures. -
Well Built Sprinkler
This sprinkler is well built and the fit and finish seem very good. It also puts out some nice spray patterns. Just don't forget to turn it off....it is almost completely silent when it is operating. It wont keep you awake when your taking an afternoon nap on the deck... -
Best Sprinkler Ever
I love this sprinkler. It is completely adjustable. The rotation mechanism works so well, there is no extra lingering at the outer parameters like on so many other sprinklers. You know the kind, where the outer edges get twice the water as the middle? Not with this one. Smooth. Efficient. The base is heavy enough so that it stays in place without having to put a rock on it, or wrestle with the hose. The nozzle can be adjusted so that the water flows in a high arc, or kept low, or anything in between. I want another one!
