Flopro Professional Metal Height Adjustable Tripod Sprinkler

Good product

Nice tripod.The head - not so good.I’m not sure if it’s because we have low pressure, but the thing wouldn’t return direction and the range was only about 3m.I have a newly turfed 260sqm lawn to water so that was never going to work well. I decided to remove the stops and use the full 360 degree spray mode and that worked well for a while. After about a day of watering the head control failed altogether and would just spin fast and dribble water. I tried WD40 and a light grease on the head but couldn’t make it work. It is free moving and bobs up and down as the water is turned on and off, it just won’t impulse turn.I ditched the head and replaced it with a different one and have doubled the range and have a working return mechanism so maybe it’s not the pressure after all....Not sure if this is a bad head, but looking through the reviews again this seems to be a common problem.The replacement head I bought was also from Amazon and is an OasisAhead long range unit.If anyone from FloPro reads this and wants the head back to check let me know.....

Its supposed to go round and then change direction.It just sits there spouting water In one direction.

I use well water to irrigate my garden and so the pressure from the pump is at least double mains pressure. The previous unit I purchased many years ago now, from a different supplier, needed to be reinforced with bricks on the base of the legs. If you didn't put on the extra ballast then the increased pressure would just blow the tripod pulse sprayed straight over. This tripod system is larger, has a better spread at the base making it more stable and gives a much better height to the pulse sprayer and only cost a few quid more. Much better value for money !

I read the reviews but as they seemed 50/50 I took a chance and now wished that I hadn’t. The only reason why I am giving it 2 star is that “water does sprinkle out”! I also kept trying to fix it, hoping it would work but forget it, I should have just returned it before it was too late.Our water pressure is too low so it won’t do the 180 as it won’t flick back - which is fine.However the issue is that one minute it may rotate 360 degrees and the next it won’t and it just stays in one place.I am afraid that I would recommend that you do not buy this product as too many people have said it hasn’t worked.

Read some of the negative reviews but bought it anyway. Tripod is great, as good as one i use for photography with legs that can be set to varying heights for ground conditions. Impulse head seems a bit complicated but does what you want. did stop spinning after couple of days but some WD40 fixed that immediately. I've got very low water pressure so not expecting wide coverage but it is much better than sprinkler I was using before. For a domestic user I think this is really good value.

It did a good job for my bowls club, An alternative hose attachment would be great

Excellent tripod build qualityBut I don’t think the sprinkler head is as good as others availableThough adequyfor my use
