The first timer broke after a couple of months

The first timer broke after a couple of months. But at least you sent me a new unit. As far as using it, it is great! Extremely easy to use and set. I have it controlling my vegetable drip irrigation system.

Excellent phone support

Excellent phone support.

As long as it doesn’t loose the programming

As long as it doesn’t loose the programming, it’s perfect. A glitch required a new one covered by the 5 year warranty. Fast delivery.

Daybreak timer

It’s ok, it’ll get the job done. Not crazy about time settings. Would’ve liked 10 min intervals. It’s not as convenient as my previous single outlet timer.

Leaks

It leaks, a lot! Reversed the washers, tried everything. Had two other people try to fix it. Can't use it as the leak is too big.

Easy to set up. Reliable for programmed time and amount.

Works well and is helping me water early morning during the summer months.

I have a different timer model from orbit which is less confusing.
This dial is too easily turned when adjusting the connection, so for that reason I prefer the other model #62056 in my view is more full proof.
