After trying all sizes, shapes and brands finally found the perfect sprinkler for my gardening needs. I was a bit disappointed that sprinker, as it can be set up at a multi-head set, does not come with end cap to use as individual sprinkler, but a good soda bottle cap and that is solved for the time being. works well and gives exceptional coverage. sturdy metal spike pulls and locks easily into ground for good stability. very happy with the circular sprinkler.

I own many Gardena products and have been pleased with the quality. This sprinkler is the lone exception. The sprinkler worked as advertised, but this is the third one I have owned and on every one the metal spike breaks, leaving a short stubb of metal too short to perform the function for which it was intended, namely, to hold the sprinkler in place. I have written to Melnor/Gardena to purchase a replacement part (just the spike) and am waiting to hear from them. Given the Gardena emphasis on quality I would expect better. If Melnor will not let me buy just the spike (at a reasonable price), I will probably switch to the plastic based sprinkler.

My wife bought me this sprinkler on Father's day - initially it worked great but on the third use the sprinkler head froze in place and would no longer rotate. No attempt to free it worked. Save your money and keep your blood pressure down and buy a different brand.

I have used it for several years. It is running right now, this very minute. No rain for a while.

The Gardena Circular Sprinkler really does the work. It covers a great area and performed exactly as advertised.
