Plastic gears stripped after one month.

Can I get this fixed/replaced ? I don't see any contact information for Watex. It looks great, the black plastic parts quickly fade and the steering wheel rusts, but it still looks good from a distance. The plastic gears have stripped and the sprinkler no longer moves. It got hung up on some grass runners (St. Augustine & Coastal Bermuda) a few times which stopped the blades moving. Maybe that stripped it or maybe it couldn't pull the weight of a 5/8 inch hose, although I kept it under 100 ft…

Pros
  • it was just what i wanted
Cons
  • May not be suitable for areas with hard water

This is a heavy duty traveling sprinkler that is superior to any others currently on the market. The only difference between the old John Deere traveling sprinkler and this one is the paint color. I'm excited to find that these tractor sprinklers are still available for consumer purchase and that the parts are interchangeable. They work great and Watex stands behind their product. Thanks Watex!

Pros
  • Cost-effective and more affordable than traditional sprinklers
Cons
  • The hose may become moldy over time

Tractor sprinkler takes a lot of time out of watering

Setting the angle of the sprinkler arms is a little touchy. They need to aim down just a little if your yard isn't real wide.

Pros
  • Garden Hoses
Cons
  • It may be difficult to maneuver around obstacles

Have been using this for about a month now and this sprinkler is just great. The direction/angle of the nozzles can be adjusted to adjust the range of coverage (I've got one set almost flat, the other nearly straight out to maximize range). Have tried a few different patterns with the hose across my acre and it works really well. Only issue I've run into is that when it hits a really wet spot (especially towards the end of its run when there's a lot of hose behind it) it can slip and the wheels

Pros
  • Watering Equipment
Cons
  • The hose may get tangled easily

Could be better: my feedback

Great coverage as a sprinkler but has to run on 'low gear' to really saturate. Is also VERY heavy and awkward to carry. 'Wish it had a handle somewhere - like on the top; balanced in the middle. The little "smoke stack" is a plastic tube with a few threads into the top of the sprinkler and broke off and was lost on Day 1.

Pros
  • Provides better nutrient absorption for your plants
Cons
  • It may not work well in areas with a lot of shade

Waters my entire yard in 2 hours

Love my tractor sprinkler. It is made very well, and the shut off feature gives me piece of mind that I can walk away. First time I used it, it tipped over on uneven ground and automatically shut off. I suspect that because of the quality I will get many years of use from it.

Pros
  • A1103C
Cons
  • May not work well for potted plants

Didn't last a year, no warranty support

Hose blew open on the side (manufacturer seam) after light use and just a few months. Stored carefully inside and handled delicately.There is supposedly a warranty but the customer service team ghosted me after requesting information.Don't waste your money, too expensive for a single season (ar best) hose.

Pros
  • Prevents over-watering and under-watering
Cons
  • The hose may not be compatible with certain types of connectors

Customer Service Second to None!

This company is outstanding with regard to customer service! However, I must rate Sturdiness and Durability three stars because of the rear wheels. Granted, a week after owning and pleased with its performance, I let the tractor slip out of my hand and land on the back rear left wheel. Because it's plastic, it snapped off. However, the company promptly shipped the wheel(s) as soon as possible. They were thoughtful and responsive. This unit would be significantly more durable with a metal core…

Pros
  • Keeps soil moist without damaging delicate plants
Cons
  • The hose may not work well for areas that require a lot of water

Different than others now sold

You can see the fine water comes out of the holes and squirting up. My other soaker hoses mite be sturdier BUT they just drip,from underneath. You don’t know if they are doing anything or not.

Pros
  • Comes in a compact and portable 50-foot length
Cons
  • It may not work well for areas with heavy clay soil

If you have a really big yard get something more sturdy.

Lasted 2 1/2 years then it stopped working. Not as fast as the John Deere version but still water the yard. Thanks for attention.

Pros
  • Reduces the risk of over-fertilization
Cons
  • It may be cumbersome to set up and take down

Re-Revied after C/S response and fix.

The machine had stopped working after a few days of ownership due to a gear that fell off it's mounting pin. Contacted Customer Service and had a replacement gear box with in two day. Works great again! Thank you Watex! Well worth the price for service like that!

Pros
  • Helps minimize evaporation
Cons
  • The hose may develop kinks over time

Mister, A must for the summer

What a great invention. Needed to water patio plants and wanted to reduce the temperature in the patio. A winner on both accounts. Couldn't live without it, especially in the scorching summer months.

Pros
  • Took a long time to get
Cons
  • Hose started to have holes burst, needed fixing with tape to keep pressure.

Easy to use, time saving, excellent customer service.

Pro:1. Easy to set up2. Save water and time3. Expected coverage4. Excellent customer serviceCon:1. Not marking on the product to indicate the functions.2. Beginner of gardening may not be aware of the host connection needs (you need an adapter).I am new to gardening and found out I need an adapter to connect the pipe to the host.Customer service has been very helpful to assist me.

Pros
  • Provides low-pressure watering for delicate plants
Cons
  • The hose may take up space in the garden

A great sprinkler at a fair price!

This is a well-built sprinkler and easy to set up and use. I have a sprinkler system in my yard but choose to use this one as it gives me better coverage and I am able to use it when I feel it is necessary rather than using the program in the sprinkler system and this ends up saving water!

Pros
  • Helps reduce your water bills
Cons
  • The hose may not work well for areas with sandy soil

Watering sprinkler hose is junk.

Actual sprinkler is good watering hose was a piece of junk exploded as soon as I tryed to use it . Wish that sold it not in the package deal. Would have expected better for the money that it cost.

Pros
  • Provides excellent value for money
Cons
  • The hose may not be chemical-resistant

Best hoses ever! - my new review

I have purchased so many products to make my gardening tasks easier. This is the best one ever! I set them and then just turn the water on. They gently soak my flowering plants without disturbing the blooms. I love them, I even bought a set for a friend!

Pros
  • 2.01 pounds
Cons
  • The hose may become brittle over time

contruction appears to be study

I cannot give a realistic review as there is snow on the ground here and I will not be trying the unit out for another 3 months or so

Pros
  • Designed to provide a reliable and even watering pattern suited to watering lawns and gardens.
Cons
  • May not work as effectively in high temperatures

Great product - my new review

I love the way it looks and the ease of use on on this product is very nice. It is built very sturdy. I use it at home and I love to watch it travel across the yard. The sprinkler hose is great I wish I had some more of them.

Pros
  • Watering newly laid sod, the hose is so perfect . Thank you
Cons
  • A pressure leak formed after I used this two or three times. Not worth it
