Mist Nozzles too large for hose.
I've setup many systems before... For what you get this kit seems great... But nothing fits together... Soapy water and hard pressure aren't enough to fit any of these "mister nozzles" to the hoses. The dripper tips barely make it, but it's not easy.Be prepared for cut up or painful fingers at the end of setting up your system. These lines are very hard and inflexible. If you plan to puncture holes to fit the droppers in line you may have done in the past, that also won't work... The plastic is so hard that it simply won't expand enough to put the droppers in the hole unless you make an abnormally large hole and risk leaks.I'd say get something else. It's not worth the pain and effort to make these work unless you have hose expanders and very strong hands and lots of time.-update-there is 1 way to salvage this... Use very hot or boiling water and dip the ends of the hose in it for 3-5 seconds and then push the fittings on... It works and is easy. No other method works. This one method makes this kit go from unusable 3 star to 4 stars

Great deal
This was worth the money and it was stupid easy to install. I have had mine for two years now and no complaints

Hose keeps popping off of the barbs
I needed to replace some in my system and found my old hose had become too weather-hardened to install new drippers, so I bought this package which included new hose and drippers. The hose has popped off at numerous junctions every time the timer turns the system on, and leaks at at least half of the connections. I know how to install this type of system and how far to push the hose onto the barbs so I am assuming the barbs aren't adequately holding the hose on as the seems to be enough resistance installing the hose over them. I have reordered my previous supplier package even though it includes a new timer which I didn't need as my old one still works. I would not recommend this product

Does not connect to a garden hose
First off, putting the system together with misters and drippers went really smoothly. I used 7 misters and 6 drippers to water a garden in the yard and potted plants on the porch. Putting the hose in the sun to keep it warm made sliding it on the connectors much easier. Cannot imagine doing it on a cold day. The problems arose when I tried to connect it all to the garden hose. The green splitter does not have the same threads as a standard garden hose. Not sure what the threads are at this point. I was able to get it on about one thread, leaks like a seive, and test my system. The drippers seem capable of more water flow than the misters, but they all worked and were ajustable and that I liked. I liked the 1/4" hose to green splitter too. Actually I like everything but two things. First, not being able to connect to a garden hose and not knowing what the threads are so I can find an adapter to make it workSecond, the kit says it only works with water pressure between 25 and 45 psi, so a pressure regulator in the kit would seem necessary. If the kit came with a pressure regulator that would connect to a garden hose and the included green splitter valves I would say the kit was perfect. Update. Threads on the green splitter are 3/4" NPT. With that info I was able to connect up to a garden hose with no leaks. All works great now, but not a complete kit.

Great irrigation system for small garden
Bought this to water couple of my raised beds and few grow bags. As weather is getting hotter, it gets difficult to water the plants at regular intervals.Installation is pretty simple and straightforward. I connected the Y splitter to a timer and set it to run at regular intervals. It came with close to 100ft 1/4 inch pipe. It also 2 different emitters depending on the need. I connected 2 lines from splitter with both extending around 15ft. It works decent. Adjust the emitters to match your need.This system is working as expected so far. Make sure you are using this system for smaller areas. If your area is larger, go for 1/2 inch or 1 inch. I used weed barrier clips to firmly hold the pipe in position. Now my plants are getting enough water at regular intervals.

Frustrating
Short answer, don't buy this, or any other product that looks like the same thing under a different name. However, if you did buy it, or are going to buy it anyway, here's my experience. It initially took a fairly short time to cut and lay out the lines and fittings to cover 11 shrubs in a small garden. That's where the trouble began. When I hooked it all up and turned on the water, it just kept blowing hoses off of fittings. So, I went over all the fittings to be sure that they were all connected with the hose over the second barb on the tee. Still kept blowing hoses off. It took quite a while to get that sorted and it involved using super glue and zip ties as clamps. I was going to just give up and try to return it, but I had a lot of time invested, so kept going. Then, I found that the female fitting on the "Y" fitting did not have enough thread to connect to the timer (bought separately) to connect without leaking. I had to search my plumbing supplies to get a thinner rubber gasket and that worked. Once it was all hooked up and not blowing hoses off, I found that both of the quick connect fittings that connect to the "Y" were leaking. I can't fix that, but they don't leak that much and only while the timer is on. Also, the little stakes provided just bend in anything but loose dirt. My advice if you're going to try this....lay it all out and test it before you bury it. If hoses blow off of fittings, don't just connect them again, cut a half inch off of the hose and then connect securely, making sure the hose is all the way on. Again, you may have to use something like a zip tie or glue to actually keep it connected. And...good luck. But, if you have the option, don't buy it in the first place. It's very poorly made.
