This is a variant of Orbit water timers I have been using for quite some time. I have found them very reliable and easy to use. The only downside is that the locally stocked models have variable manual water time whereas this model is only switchable on-off.

--please also see update below-- Do I recommend it? Not unless you have the time and skills to fix it. Is it good value? $30 + 1.5 hours of my time = definitely not good value Is it of good quality? Not out of the box, but it seems to be ok now. I am sure the developers did a great job, but the manufacturers must have messed up. Finishes and tolerances on this unit are so bad that I spent an hour or so sanding back seats so they don't leak, and replacing the inlet fitting with one that would fit properly onto a tap. Summary: It is all working now, but unless you want to fix a brand new product, go to the local retailer shop instead and support them. Update: First unattended test. This morning the water was still running after 8 hours. It was set to 30 minutes. This unit is a complete waste of money and my time. I have now finally lost trust in this kind of online shopping.

The Electronic Water Timer works OK but it is not an "Orbit " brand as inferred, but looks like an Orbit. It has no markings as to brand only that it is made in China. I don't know about it's quality as I have only used it a few times.

I fitted the timer quite easily. Went on holiday to come back with a flooded back yard. I am expecting a massive water bill. The unit snapped off at the tap fitting. Not happy.

This timer is a copy of the original timer it replaced. It was half the price of the other one which is no longer available. If it lasts half as long as the original one I will be very happy.
