Orbit 50021 2-Zone All-in-One Automatic Watering System

Got a quote from my sprinkler company $3200. Altogether I bought two of these kits some additional line and a four-way hose timer to work off of my well.. for some reason, my grass is greener, then even my neighbors who have those professional installs.

Digging the ditches was some work but worth spending hundreds rather than thousands. Good product, easy to figure out.

Everything you need, easy installation.

I ordered three of these and I'm glad I did. Our plants and trees are spread out and we've needed most of the pipe to accomplish what we were trying to do. I did not use the controllers that were included so that I could use wifi controllers with three zones x 2. I have 5 zones completed with only minimal digging because I did not want to have to bury the pipe unless it was absolutely necessary. We have great water pressure so I've been able to run as many 6 heads on one zone. Huge learning curve with placement and I've had to move things around a bit but overall I'm very happy with how user friendly it has been.My only complaint is the lack of nozzle choices. Even though there is a pack of six that doesn't come with this kit, it's only variations of the same thing. I would love a misting nozzle but it doesn't exist for this particular sprinkler head.

The price on the item was extremely reasonable when compared to other self-install systems. My three-star review is more about Amazon Customer Support than the product itself. When I received the product, the bag of connectors only had half of the numbers required to install the full 2 zones with 6 heads. Since I was only setting up 4 heads per zone and we are already hitting the 90's I went to the big box store and got 2 threaded 90s and a hose adapter to install the system. Neither Amazon nor Orbit sell the 1/2" threaded Tee connectors.Installation was super easy following the supplied instructions. While the description reports that you get 200 feet of 1/2" line, you actually get 250 feet. The extra 50 feet is a nice touch. My only warning in installing the system is in using the Blu Lock connectors. The instructions say to mark the line 1 inch from the cut to ensure proper fitment. DO NOT skip this step. The fit is tight (which is good), but the hose must be inserted in the full 1 inch. 3/4" the fitting will leak (You might consider using liquid dish soap to make it easier to insert the hose).Now for the CON: when you get your system, make sure you inventory your parts! Sometimes stuff happens by accident at factories. If you are missing anything, return the entire kit! This is the ONLY option that AMAZON gives. They reported that there is no way that they can send missing parts. Even if I had not installed the system. I would have reservations about sending the whole system back at the company's expense because they were missing a bag with 18 connectors (of which I only really needed 3) to install my 2 systems.All in all Yes, I will buy this system again when I am ready to install it in the back yard. Just be sure to inventory it when you get it.

Works really well!

Do not buy this UNLESS you've done the math. The tubing size is vastly undersized to handle 6 heads per zone. I need to dig up what I did and re-pipe with larger diameter tubing. The make this system sound like it is plug & play....it is not! I wasted time and money with this system.

No way at all to complain about what you get for the price. I've so far installed one zone and used one of my existing Bluetooth timers. If you know what your doing and understand how it's works it will. Testing the psi and gpm is a must to know your options. I love it. Plan on buying 3 more 2 zone kits to do my 10k sq foot front
