Keten Impact Sprinkler on Tripod Base, Tripod Sprinklers with 360 Degree Large Area Coverage, Extra Tall Heavy Duty Water Sprinklers for Yard/Lawn/Garden

Works great to water lawn and reach a large area at a time. Have to tighten head once in a while but no big deal. Good quality

I was impressed with the anodized finish and the overall construction quality, it was better than I expected. I did have a much better coverage with a true 3/4" hose instead of a 5/8" normal size garden hose, and this can handle the extra water. Sprinkler head is full metal and works well and they even include teflon tape in the box to attach it.One issue with this type of sprinkler is that it has to be fairly well balanced, which means I had to adjust the legs to keep it level in the yard. People having issues with it not resetting properly are likely not leveling it. I found it pretty easy to knock it out of level with the large tripod, so you just have to keep an eye on it.

I would definitely buy it again performs really nice

I have a few of these. I had one that I accidentally tipped over while on cement and it broke the spray nozzle off. My advice is, don't do that.It is easy to adjust and has very good range and if you don't let it tip over on cement they last and work well.

The media could not be loaded. I have nothing good to say about this. Right out of the box I had issues and they kept coming.Directions tell you to "screw the Accessory Connection" onto it. I could not find any parts in the box at all, least wise this one. When I looked at the parts list to hopefully see what that part looks like, it wasn't even listed. (PHOTOS)I went to hook my hose up and realized that there was nothing to hold the filter screen in place...ever. That the only way to keep the screen in was to keep a hose on it 24/7/365. Absurd. (VIDEO)I put my hose on and put back down to go turn on water and realized you can not use this at 16" as the hose pushes it up off the ground!! (PHOTO) One side will always lift at least 5" off the ground due to the hose assembly being too close to the ground. If I raise the legs so that the hose piece is off the ground, it works, but in my set up, it's then too high and shot water over a fence into a neighbors yard. I needed a sprinkler off the ground to get over some plants, but low enough to stay in my yard so the 16" this one described was perfect...but a lie as you can't use it at 16".So I raised it and turned it on and attempted to adjust the angle pieces so that it would water about a 70 degree angle. I was completely soaked because the angle pieces (not sure what they're called but blue arrow is pointing to them in photo) will not stay where I put them. I placed one, then the other, stood back and watched as it seemed to be perfect. As I walked away, I got sprayed despite having set those pins to not spray the area I was in. I returned and repeated and got sprayed a second time. I eventually realized that they both moved with the movement of the impulse head so that they did not stay where I put them!!This is the most idiotic sprinkler I've ever owned or even heard of. A filter screen that won't stay in, a hose connector so low to the ground it lifts it up and angle pins that move with the shaking of the impulse. I started a return within half an hour of attempting to use it.

The legs are extruded aluminum and the other structural parts are aluminum forgings, not cast crap. Everything in contact with the water is solid brass. The sprinkler itself looks to be a standard solid brass Rainbird head or equivalent. No cheap hose washers, all o-ring sealed and the head is double sealed. Height adjustments are over-center cam locks. Aluminum is anodized, not painted. Has the standard adjustments to limit the travel and cycle back and forth between slow and fast impact or set individually to slow or fast.Just generally nicely done after a lot of the plastic crap and stamped metal riveted fall apart garbage I have seen lately.I know you are saying "It's just a sprinkler", but all in all, very nicely done. I have just ordered two more.

I’ve ordered multiple Keten Impact Sprinklers on Tripod Base, and unfortunately, I’ve had to return and replace a few. They provide great coverage when they work, but there are some consistent issues.If you have higher water pressure, you’ll need to put something on the sprinkler to prevent it from tipping over. And when it does fall over, it often stops rotating correctly. I’ve had to take them apart several times to clean them or try to troubleshoot to get them working again. Sometimes I can get them back to working, but often, I can’t.While they work well when functioning, these sprinklers have been frustrating to maintain and keep in good working order. Not the most reliable option, but when they do work, they do a decent job.

Looove my sprinkler it is great on my farm
