Product Description

Amazon.com Review

Gardena's turbo-drive sprinkler can help you accomplish the daunting task of watering a large lawn. This sprinkler can manage lawns or gardens from 850 to 4,850 square feet, ranging from a narrow slice to a full circle of coverage. The sprinkler has silent operation, denying you that nostalgic tick-tick-tick summer sound but allowing your neighbors to sleep through your early morning sprinkling sessions. In addition, Gardena has designed this sprinkler to water in two stages: first, a short-range gentle watering, then a longer-range spray, providing complete coverage both near and far. The sprinkler can perform down to lower water pressures: Gardena recommends a minimum of 14 psi. The sprinkler is designed for use either alone or as part of a series. Limited warranty.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great sprinkler for awhile, February 13, 2004

This sprinkler would easily be a 5 if it were built better. The only metal component is the spike itself, all other parts are plastic. I have hard soil in parts of my yard that make it difficult to sink the spike deep enough for proper performance. This sprinkler did not last a full season without cracking at the point where the spike and plastic meet due to the force required to bury the spike and the weak plastic neck. An overwhelming positive attribute - It is incredibly nice to be able to water in peace and quiet. I will reluctantly keep buying them for that reason alone.

3.0 out of 5 stars Sprinkler review, June 27, 2000

This review is from: Gardena Turbo Drive Sprinkler on a Spike 36849-6 (Lawn & Patio)

The turbo Drive Sprinkler makes two rotations to cover the designated area. The first pass produces a mist spray covering out to 3/4 of the selected diameter. The second pass produces more of a single stream with a narrow spray pattern to cover the outside 1/4 of the spray diameter. In a low water pressure situation the spray may leave a gap in coverage. Works best with high water pressure. Linking more than two sprinklers greatly reduces the coverage.

This review is from: Gardena Turbo Drive Sprinkler on a Spike 36849-6 (Lawn & Patio)

I have used this sprinkler for several years and it was my absolute favorite - it is quiet and doesn't have that annoying sound that most sprinklers have. And it doesn't pool water at its base either.
My dogs ate my old one and I am thrilled to find that I can replace it at Amazon ! Good price also ! Less than I originally paid !
