PIECE OF GARBAGE!!!! When I said to my mother, "Hey mom, look at that cool sprinkler! Can we get it?" I thought that I was getting a quality item. Little did I know, it was a piece of useless garbage! When my mom asked me to set it up in our backyard, I did. When I turned on the hose, I instantly realized what a useless piece of scrap metal this thing was. The hose connecter started leaking, the sprinkler wouldn't turn, and the tripod snapped and fell apart. It looked like some broken UFO with water coming out of it! When I turned off the hose, I also noticed that the sprinkler head had popped off and was lying in the grass. By now, I got so mad that I ran over to it, and started lifting it up when... SNAP! The remaining two tripod stands had completely fallen off, and were stuck in the ground. I just then took it, hurled it at the house, and the pipe where the sprinkler head was supposed to be, had made a huge dent in the wall. The next thing I thought of is, "Why would GILMOUR make such a piece of garbage?"^M
Defective The item does not work properly. The partial oscillation does not work at all and the connection to the hose leaks even when additional washers are used. Not recommended.
Gilmour 999TP Adjustable Tripod Extra Large Impulse Sprinkler This is the perfect sprinkler for the home owner with a lot of property with trees, bushes and other plants. The adjustable legs and spay head make if very easy to water a large area. It is light weight and easy to move around. The only problem I've seen in the short time I've had this product is the rivits that attach the legs to the body of the product alreay have some rust, but I believe this can be corrected. |
