As a brand loyalist Ive tried a few timers over the years and this one from Insiders stands out. Its super straightforward screw it on dial in the time and forget it. Perfect for my garden in London where weather can be unpredictable but this thing thrives. I use it for early morning sessions to keep my plants happy and it frees up my weekends no more manual watering. Compared to others its more durable and hassle-free. A tip make sure to set it during low evaporation times for best results. Highly recommend for any home gardener looking for a low-tech solution that just works.
- Pros: Super reliable and easy to set up, it works without any power or batteries just pure mechanical simplicity. I love that it saves water by letting me schedule watering for cooler times reducing evaporation and waste. It attaches right to the hose and handles any weather making it a proper workhorse for the garden.
- Cons: From what I feel it might not be for everyone if you need very complex schedules but for basic use its flawless. No real cons to mention it just does its job well without any fuss.
