Gilmour Electronic Water Timer, Teal/Black #9100

from: Gilmour


This keeps getting cheaper on Amazon, I may have to fill my house with them!
Seriously, this is a great price for an automatic valve. I just got mine, so I can't speak to it's longevity.
The first thing I noticed is how bizarre the battery compartment was designed. I could see how some reviewers had problems with keeping the battery compartment dry. The seal should not have to compete with the springs that hold the battery in. Poor engineering.
Also, anytime a device uses dials, it's impossible to make it totally waterproof. So buyer beware.
Another oddity: for such a simple device, the instructions are written in a confusing manner. But it basically works as you expect. The manual overrides are just a little confusing. ... Read More:

Gilmour 10 Series 8 Ply Flexogen Hose, 3/4 Inch x 100 Feet, #10-34100, Green

Don't waste your money on Home Depot garbage. My experience is that even their most expensive hoses leak and tangle. This hose is very well manufactured - you will feel the quality if you compare it to what you get from home center.

Gilmour 8 ply Flexogen Hose 3/4-Inch-by-50-Foot #10-34050

from: Gilmour


Just a quick review: We bought a couple of these hoses in 1999 and they have been in use and kept outside in the Southern California sun continuously for 9 years. The hoses are in perfect condition! Based on how long they last, they are also the cheapest hoses ever. We had to replace one because a construction crew drove over it repeatedly with a bulldozer, but that's hardly normal use. The Flexogen hoses are also much lighter than most high quality hoses. Highly recommended.

Have used this hose for the last 17 years. Save the ends and return them if the hose ever fails. They are good about giving new hoses that fail. No matter how old.

Gilmour 20-Inch Reel Mower with Grass Catcher #RM30

from: Gilmour


I think the mower is good. I had forgotten that it won't cut close to the edge of the sidewalk well though.Also, I do not think the grass catcher is helpful at all, there is always a gap between the blades and the catcher and a lot of the grass falls through. It cuts well and it's easy to push, that's the plus, along with being "green" which was my goal.

Gilmour 3 Tube Sprinkler & Soaker Hose, Flat, 25 Feet #27141Green

from: Gilmour


After 2 weeks, it leaks near each end. It is poorly contructed.

But, since it is a soaker hose that I buried, I use it anyways. A little extra water on the plants near the faucet should not hurt.

Gilmour Foamaster Adjustable Multi Ratio Cleaning Gun, #75QGFMR

from: Gilmour


Used it for the first time today, and I was like a kid with a new toy. It was a fun time washing my vehicles, it was a little bit faster with the foam gun. But there were some things that I didn't like about it, depending on your setting, you can go thru soap very quickly, and you can't spray the foam very far (I wish there was a setting for that). The setting was a minor thing, because it was adjustable. Over all it's a fun item to own if you want to have a little fun washing your car.

Gilmour Faucet Extension and Flow Control Teal #FX6

from: Gilmour

December 01, 2004
This little extension works well except for the fact that the flow control tends to rotate, especially in softer soil. The pointed prong support that goes into the ground isn't strong enough to keep the faucet control from moving sideways while a hose connected to it is being used. This movement allows the unit to work itself out of the ground. A three or four-prong support might work better than the simple one-prong it comes with.

Gilmour 10 Series 8 Ply Flexogen Hose, 3/4 Inch x 25 Feet, #10-34025, Green

from: Gilmour


I ordered this hose because of the 2-3 inch heavy duty collar at the end, shown in the picture. The hose that arrived had the correct item number, but had just a regular brass hose end.

I thought I was ordering something heavy duty, now it seems just like a regular hose.
