I bought this end of July 2024. It was not great last year. Just ok. It is all plastic and really flimsy. The part that screws onto the hose pops off super easy. It just snaps on. Like if I try to pull their sprinkler by the hose to move it, it disconnects. I pulled it out today and it is leaking everywhere there is a connection. Out of where the hose connects, where the sprinkler head connects to the base and where the controls/ levers are. Just awful. I checked the connections, the gasket is not cracking or dry. Everything seems to be where it should be. I stored it in the garage over winter and it is not left out in the elements. Super disappointed. It has a 2 year warranty but when you go to the website it redirects you to the US amazon page. I may try to call. I have other Joe products and have had good luck and they have a good reputation, but this one is a cheaply made flimsy plastic sprinkler. My dollarama one is much sturdier and more reliable.

It is easy to use. Width wise and where you can aim it is awesome only thing better would be if it were metal. I don't see it lasting more than a few years. But doing the trick right now.

This sprinkler is sold in the United States. The sprinkler component alone (I removed the round blue base and used a compatible Gardena spike instead) is heavier and bulkier than comparable sprinklers from Gardena, Gruntek or Bradas. It has 20 nozzles whereas the European brands usually have 16. The heftiness and its substantial weight implies it is well built and the internal gears must be heavier too. The downside of its weighty internals and more nozzles is that it requires significantly more water pressure to turn those gears and maintain the wide coverage that it advertises. In the UK, we simply don't have enough mains water pressure to operate this sprinkler effectively, the coverage is less than a quarter than what I achieved with European sprinklers. That is unfortunate because the build of the sprinkler itself feels very robust.

I just bought a new Aqua Joe oscillating sprinkler on sled base to replace the one I bought four years ago that has started to leak. I have been very satisfied with this sprinkler. I have used it on a timer continuously for the last four years to water my 30 x 60-foot lawn, either every day or every other day, depending on rain. I have it installed in a recessed basin in the center of my lawn, fed by a buried garden hose. It has done a good job of evenly watering the lawn and has stood up well to the searing south Florida sun that tends to quickly degrade plastic. I am replacing my old one with a new, identical one because I noticed the old one had started to leak a little water out of the bottom when it was running. I haven’t looked at it closely to see why - perhaps it could be fixed. I felt that it had already lasted longer than any other oscillating sprinkler I have owned so I am replacing it. This is a good-quality sprinkler that functions well and stands up to long, regular use.

So I suggest buying this product because it really does allow you a tight watering area. However, seriously warning. This product breaks incredibly easily and must be handled with utmost care.BTW, customer service is OUTSTANDING!It broke the second time I used it. Went to their website and simple, clean, efficient they sent a replacement. Like they were so checking in on me it was bothersome, which is so rare I can not complain.Got the replacement one. Used it 5 times and it broke in a different spot. At some point you have to ask, "is it me?". And the answer was yes. I have always set up a sprinkler, run it for a while, then dragged it elsewhere in the yard via the hose so that lazily I didn't have to go turn off the water then move then turn back on..or get wet diving into it running.This is a very cheap piece of plastic, like child's toy at the dollar store cheap. Very thin plastic. And looking at the photos, it is not aerodynamic, so when you are dragging it and it twists and turns, it breaks close to instantly.Caveat emperor, buy it, it does what it advertises. But turn the water off, walk over, move it, turn the water back on. Not for lazy people.(BTW, I cannibalize the two units to make a usable one...and am now off to turn the water off and relocate it after it watered as I wrote this).

El diseño del producto es bueno, me gustan los patrones de aspersion y su flexibilidad. Lo que es un dolor, es la debil conexion con la manguera. Se suelta con mucha facilidad y hay que colocarla con mucha frecuencia y existe el riesgo de romper por que se cae al trasladar

Like a number of other folks, I had a problem with connecting the hose to the sprinkler. The plastic sleeve that the hose screws into does not seal properly and the connection then leaked on both ends. The result is not only a messy puddle but also the volume of the leak is substantial and causes a considerable loss in water pressure to the spray unit.Nothing seems to be broken, just a poorly designed connector.Edit: I decided to seal the hose connector with Loctite sealant applied inside the connector and on the outside where it fits into the base. After letting this cure properly, I applied teflon tape to the hose and screwed it into the connector.Upon turning on the water, I was pleased to see that the leaking had for the most part stopped, but a few seconds later, the connector popped off the base. Apparently, the connector /base flange isn't able to withstand normal water pressure.Not willing to give in yet. Next I'll try removing the connector and replace it with a short piece of garden hose that I'll secure to the base with a hose clamp. And lots of JB Weld.Edit 2: That worked. Used a dremel to remove the flange and raised parts of the base inlet. Then pushed a piece of garden hose on to the inlet and secured this with a hose clamp. No glue. No leaks. I may remove and reattach with glue just to be sure. The sprinkler works fine.Edit 3: Second fix failed, probably due to excessive pressure. Glue may have helped. Not being one to give up easily (LOL!!), I upped the ante a bit. Got a brass 5/8" female hose part and filed it down so that it would snugly fit inside the sprinkler base. Made four cuts in the sprinkler base to permit the clamp to tighten. Applied epoxy glue inside the base and on the brass fitting, then added the hose clamp and pushed the brass fitting inside the base. Tightened the hose clamp. Considered drilling a hole in the top of the base to screw a small metal screw into the base and brass part. This would prevent the brass part from being pushed out of the base. After curing, the sprinkler again works fine with no leaks.Spent more on parts to fix this than the thing costs. No worries, this is what keeps me going in retirement!!
