Waste of time, money & energy
I will be returning. Bought 2, one for the front drip system, one for the back. Setup was a breeze. Downloaded the app, very clear with no issues. Programmed both for multiple cycles, starting at 6am. The first morning I didn't see any evidence of watering so I tried the manual feature. Had to walk to the back of my house to be within range of the timer to connect with the device. What? But once in range, I got Manual to work... Second day, same thing. So, your phone (app) has to be in range of the faucet & timer to connect, else none of the services work. WHAT? This is terrible. I assumed the programming stayed in the device at the faucet, but nope it is in your App. My phone would NEVER be in range of both these timers, especially at the same time. I bought these to water my yard while I'm traveling. Going back to the programmable timer, it never failed me before... Shame on you, Melnor, for producing such a waste...
