GrowGreen Rotating Lawn Sprinkler
Spread across your whole yard
One sprinkler for all your gardening needs.
Pros:
- Huge coverage
- Powerful
Cons:
- Not the cheapest
With a giant 3,600 square foot range, the GrowGreen Rotating Lawn Sprinkler connected sprinkler is powerful enough to be the only sprinkler you need. If you have a lawn bigger than 3,600 square feet congratulations, but you will need two of these top cover it. I like this sprinkler for the power of the spray and the 360-degree coverage it produces.
Pros:
- Super cheap
- Discreet
- Adjustable coverage
Cons:
- Has to be in the ground
A lot of houses come with an in-ground irrigation system as standard. The K-Rain Pro-S 4" Professional Pop-Up Sprays pop-up sprinklers are perfect for replacing the old ones and can be adjusted as needed to cover the maximum area. I like that they can spray from 0 to 360 degrees, saving my house from being sprayed by the ones by my wall.
Pros:
- Three settings
- Reasonably priced
- Connect two or more
Cons:
- Best for larger back yards
The Madeking Garden Sprinkler produces high water pressure and can be connected to multiple sprinklers to provide greater garden coverage. It has a low-maintenance 360 degree rotating action, which will keep your yard green without the need to adjust its position.
