Product Description

Amazon.com Review

You may appreciate the browning powers of the summer sun, but rest assured your lawn doesn't feel the same way. With this sturdy Gardena circular sprinkler, you can keep your grass green and looking its best even in the warmest of weather. Measuring about 11 inches at its widest point, this sprinkler sits on a weighted sled for improved stability and joins quickly and easily to your garden hose with the help of the included connector. With the simple twist of a dial, you can easily adjust the direction of the spray for watering a small patch of lawn to one side of the sprinkler or for full 360-degree coverage. Depending on your water pressure, this sprinkler is capable of spraying a radius up to 28 feet.

This is an excellent sprinkler for medium size areas, such as 50' x 50'.

Gardena as usual, has given carefull thought to their product.

It produces a uniform spray pattern acoss it's diameter and the water dropplets

are small, so they don't damage any folliage.

Gardena Circular Sprinkler Vario/Sled #31948-5

I've been using Gardena products for well over twelve years. During that time I have never been disappointed by any of thier products. Not until now. I am completely disappointed with the performance of this product. After about 10 to 15 minutes of use, the sprinkler stops spinning and only sprays water in the same direction, soaking the same portions of the lawn. I disassembled and reassembled it. I ran it with and without the filter. I altered the pressure (volume) of the hose. I tried the different settings. All to no avail. The product just doesn't do what Gardena claims. I hope it's the nature of the item and not the product. If I knew how to return or exchange it, I would do so in a heart beat. Since I purchased through Amazon, I'm not at all sure of the return process. It's in my gargage getting dusty.

1.0 out of 5 stars Gardena's worst sprinkler, June 6, 2009

This review is from: Gardena Circular Sprinkler Vario/Sled 31948-5 (Lawn & Patio)

I've been using Gardena sprinklers for years and years. They've always been outstanding products. Though many folks are turned off by their high prices and plastic construction, I find them to be long-lasting and well engineered. However, THIS one is horribly engineered. It's extremely hard to set up without getting soaked. While is it very adjustable from 1/4 to a full circle -- it's near impossible to tell where the water is going to come out. Unfortunately, even after this painful set up, you'll find the spinning action to be extremely inconsistent and very dependent on the pressure supplied. What's worse, I was never able to find a pressure at which the thing provided good, even coverage. Skip this one!
