Let’s set the scene: You’re in your dream home, all the walls are beautifully painted, and you have your interior decorating skills on lock. You’ve got everything planned out, but there’s just one problem. Your lawn won’t cooperate with its dry and brown patches. Maybe you’ve tried every solution in the book—or maybe you’ve been neglecting the grass and don’t want to admit it. Whatever it may be, we know one fact, and that is that your home’s exterior is just as important as its interior. It’s time to give your grass a little TLC, which can easily be done with some sprinkler and hose timers. While there are many options to choose from, we want to put you on a particular one that has buyers raving about it.

Orbit’s Hose Watering Timer is the perfect addition to nearly any faucet and will get you started on a watering routine that’s just what your lawn needs. It comes in four different sizes so you’re not limited in the number of hoses to plug in: one outlet, two outlets, two outlets with brass, and three outlets.

The timer has a run time from anywhere between one to 240 minutes (four hours) and intervals from every six hours to once every seven days. There is also a manual override switch that won’t affect the current schedule to allow for flexible manual watering. If needed, the built-in rain delay can pause your watering schedule for 24, 48, or 72 hours and save water for drought conditions.

The single-outlet timer size is currently selling for $29.05 on Amazon.com and has over 24,000 reviews, averaging 4.5 out of 5 stars. Based on what many buyers have said, the interface is easy to understand, and so much time and water have been saved using this timer. Weighing only 1.1 pounds and measuring 6.69 x 3.11 x 10.24 inches, this device does not take up much space at all. The heavy-duty construction ensures that it can withstand even the harshest of storms. Just keep in mind that you need two AA batteries to get started.
