Can this to be used water my grass lawn? Lawn is 30 feet x 30 feet. It looks like it's for watering trees and plants, but will it work on lawn?

I wouldnt use it for that since you have to mow the lawn, right? Also, the drip stays right by the hose so it wont dispurse much further than the actual hose.

I doubt it very seriously. I had to send all mine back because the hose is not large enough in diameter to adequately water my gardens let alone a yard.

I'm not an expert by any means but this is a slow drip for plants. For a yard I'd go with a sprinkler.

Yes, it works well for watering plants. It has many different settings so you can use a lighter one for delicate plants and a heavier one for things like trees that need a lot of water. Just be careful not get any dirt on the top of the nozzle, it's really hard to clean and it's hard to close the nozzle.

Yes, it would work. The spray is adjustable and it would probably, and thoroughly, water the area in about 20 minutes. As much as I really like this product I really believe that it's application in this small area is not cost effective. I would recommend an adjustable oscillating sprinkler on a water timer at the faucet that works of water flow. Each is readily available online. Good Luck!

Used it with terrible water and got about 300 gallons before I changed it. Didn't use it for drinking water however....

Yes you can use the pump for your lawn irrigiation system. However, there are some control questions you will need to resolve. 1. Is there any chance you could pump your shallow well empty or down to a level where the pickup pipe will be below the level of the water in the well? The pump cannot be ran without water to the input. It is not a self priming pump. 2. Does the irrigation system have an "on-off" timer. If so, then some method will need to be devised to prime the pump. Again, the pump cannot be ran without water at the input. 3. Are there approximately the same number of sprinkler heads in each of the three zones? If there is a large difference in the number of sprinkler heads, the pressure to each zone will vary and un- even results will occur.

I guess it depends on how small your yard is. I've got a large yard, but am using this sprinkler to water only a 25x50 foot rectangular seedbed. With the sprinkler in the middle of this area, I've got it adjusted so the spray distance varies from about 13 to 25 feet. I think it could service an even smaller area if I turned down the water flow. If your yard is smaller, and is not very irregular in shape, you might want to use a small oscillating sprinkler. Keep in mind that impulse sprayers, like this Gilmour, are designed to shoot water fairly long distances because they aim in one direction at a time. The oscillating sprinklers provide more even coverage for smaller areas.

I don't know for sure, but I don't think I would recommend it. You would probably run the chance of breaking part of the sprinkler system.

We bought this for the RV for drinking and whatever water. It is a regular hose so probably could be used anywhere a hose is used. Might be cheaper to buy one for the garden that doesn't have the potable water rating.

I don't really understand the question, but I doubt it could be used for water. The connections are for air hoses and are quite different than for garden hoses, for example.

I wouldn't try it. I just was watering trees with it. Sprung leak and never expanded.

It's intended as a water hose...you could use it as a sprinkler by adding a sprinkler attachment on the end....if the hose part worked right!

Probably so. I generally use mine in a bed that's a little smaller. But if your water pressure is sufficient, this little sprinkler should work fine -- for a lawn. If you wanted to use it for a garden bed this size, I would caution that larger plants that are nearer the sprinkler will block the sprinkler flow from reaching the farther reaches of the bed. Gardena makes a larger sprinkler that can be adjusted two directions so that it will work well on smaller beds as well as larger. Regardless of which one you choose, you can't go wrong with a Gardena sprinkler. I think they're well worth the extra price up front. (I've used the full sized one for over 10 years. I bought the zoom-max a couple of years ago for some very narrow small beds, and I love it too. There's also one that sprinkles in a circular pattern. I thought it could be adjusted to sprinkle in different sized wedges, but I don't think it will. (At least I can't figure out how to do it.) Nothing wrong quality-wise, but it sprinkles only circles. Hope this is helpful -- good luck!

It would depend on several things so I cannot as a fellow purchaser give you a definitive answer but will do my best. Research the recommendations for watering the trees in your area first. I used a gallon jug and timed how long it took to fill it with the root feeder in the jug so I could get a gallon per minute estimate for each faucet since not all of my faucets have the same water pressure. Hope this is of some help, if there is a local agriculture extension office in your area they may also be of help. The product has worked very well for the price and I am very happy with mine.

Yes, I use it for my lawn front, sides and back yard. Really great for narrow places too. I use it along our street side. You can adjust to keep water off the street. I also have used for all my flower beds. I am glad I bought this sprinkler. You want go wrong buying this sprinkler!

I don't think so. But should be good for watering plants. Thats what I use it for

If you self propel then really a flat lawn is fine. We added a little liquid dish soap and it was very fast and fun. In my experience I believe that it will work on a flat surface but I havent tested that.

I believe so, yes. But as I said in my review, mine (both of them) only lasted one use and then sprung several leaks, so it may work with a sprinkler, but it may not work more than once or twice.
