Customer Reviews
waste of money
Bought this when it was on sale and thought I had a good deal. Little did i know it was a piece of junk. It worked for a month or so and then water started spraying out of the case. I've sent it back for replacement FOUR times, each one would either be DOA on arrival or work for a couple weeks and then break.
Nelson customer service is good, they replace it each time, but I had to pay postage to return it each time.

Terrible...
I totally agree with Steve --- impossible to read and virtually impossible to program, no matter how good one is at programming --- not just a waste of money; a major pain on a 95 degree day when one has to remember to turn it off and on manually.

A total piece of junk!
It used to be that the name Nelson pretty much guaranteed quality. No longer. I purchased this item from Walmart and then was dumb enough to throw away the receipt.
Problems:
1- The display is extremely difficult to read in the shade OR direct sunlight. Small thin alphanumeric characters. Very poor design.
2- The timer bypass valve to the hose delivered about 25% of the volume necessary for proper hose function. Very poor design!
3- Lastly, the timer programming simply didn't work! Programming is second nature to me - I built my own commercial radio station (engineering). That wasn't the problem.
Between design flaws and non-functioning, this item gets an F grade. Even if it DID work, the design is terrible.
