NetroSmart Sprinkler Controller, WiFi, Weather aware, Remote access, 6 Zone, Compatible with Alexa

I recently replaced an older rain bird control panel with this little guy. I can't say enough great things about it:1) Installation was simple. It took me longer to find a drill bit to mount it than it did to hang and wire it.2) The installation quick start guide was well written and easy to follow. Each step worked exactly like it should.3) The app is extremely intuitive and has tons of flexibility.4) The fact that my programs are stored in the cloud is SO much better than when it was on the device. Power would go out, and of course the 9V battery in my old unit would be weak, so I'd have to turn the dial and set each zone, etc...no more!5) the app also gives you tons of data on how much you've watered and the moisture in the soil.6) the price. I don't understand how this is so much less expensive than other smartphone controlled units. I had to keep rereading the description about what the device does because I couldn't believe what I was getting for my money.7) Alexa enabling work flawlessly...I can't think of when I would use it except if I wanted to turn a zone off or on manually, but it was easy to set up.I've put this through the ringer, and I can't really find anything I dislike about it!Great Product.

My 20+ year old original toro box finally met its maker. I tried stepping into some new technology here, albeit with some reservations around performance and complexity. This product was so quick and easy to set up, directions were well written and easy to follow. No problems connecting to my wifi, and within 30 minutes of starting the install process, I was manually operating zones from my phone while standing in my driveway. Programing zones and watering cycles was pretty easy, lots of options, and very intuitive I thought.

This was super easy to install. It's pretty straight forward. Take a pic of the old one, then put the wires in the new one and the same places that came out of the old one. This one has no screws needed to attach the wires. Press the locking part then slide the wire in the hole. Release the locking mechanism, and the wire stays put. Just make sure you have enough slack in the wires. I had to lengthen one of my wires. It was 1/16th inches too short. Go figure. I would have just lowered it, but the conduit that was in place for the wires wouldn't let me lower it. I will say this, the app has an abundance of information. It looks very overwhelming at first. The initial setup asked some questions that I didn't know the answer too, but with a few Google searches, I found the info. Once the initial App is set up, you will need to get the on-line manual and read it. Installing the hardware took less than 20 min, but learning the app took 2 hours or so. I first had to figure out what zone was where. Then I had to tell the app what type of sprinkler head is used in that zone. That was where I had to use Google. Once that was done, I had to remove all the factory presets before I could set up the zones for the amount of watering I need for each zone. The preset cycle has to run it's course before you can delete it. I'm not sure why, but it does. If you manually stop it, it will just start back up again. We don't get a lot of rain in the summer, so I needed to set up the preset's for longer water times in the summer and shorter in. The fall, winter, spring, and so on. You can actually set up a 4 season schedule where it runs longer between this date and that date, and shorter for this date to that. It also will look at the local weather and skip watering on rainy days. Pretty nice. Over all, for the price this is well worth it. Just to not have to remember to go out to the garage to turn on or off the sprinklers is awesome.

The Netro Controller is easy to install and use. I can manage my sprinkler system from anywhere that I have an internet connection with my Windows PC, iphone or ipad. I should have gotten one of these a long time ago. Love it!

This is an excellent sprinkler timer. The best feature is that you can connect this to an app on your phone to control all the functions with wifi access at your home. You can turn your water on and off, set the schedule and a whole lot more. I needed a 6 station and a 12 station and I can view both of them on the same app too. I would highly recommend this product. And it's quality made.

Cannot connect to the device for setup. No customer service number to call and no chat. They don’t respond to support emails in a timely manner. I have an irrigation company waiting to finish my upgrade. Had to order a different product and return this one.

I replaced my Hunter Pro-C (PC-300i) unit with this new Netro unit in about a half hour. Most of that time was using my label printer to label the wires from the Hunter unit and removing it from the wall of the shed.I included pictures of the old unit in case anyone else has the same one and wants to know if it was compatible (that was my main question).I had a leak in my supply line in the back yard. Being able to switch the sprinkler zone on for 30 seconds, see where the water is pooling up, dig, turn it back on and follow where it's bubbling up, and repeat was SO MUCH QUICKER with the app. Otherwise I'd have to run back and forth from the shed to the watering zone.My toddler also loves running through the sprinklers and it's great to be able to just switch them on without going into the shed is great!Other than that, this thing gets the weather forecast. I've set it so that if it is supposed to water today but it will rain tomorrow, it'll skip the day before a rain and the day after. This will help save water and is just plain cool! There are more features (like the ability to add photos of the different stations) that I haven't set up yet. I have a buddy with a DJI mini and I'm going to have him take aerial photos that I can label so I know what stations are what (the previous owner had labels for the zones, but they aren't super intuitive).Edit: The price when I purchased this was $159.99+ free shipping. It recently went up to $199.99. I have also found a few of the weather providers to be inaccurate when it comes to rain. I am using the OpenWeatherMap one and it seems to be accurate enough now.

Kann bis heute ca. 1Monat nach Einbau nichts negatives sagen.Alles funktioniert wie es soll,die app ist auch ganz gut 👍 würde es wieder kaufen

Very easy installation and great app giving excellent control and overviewWorks really well

Ho recentemente avuto l'opportunità di acquistare Netro Sprite 6 zone centralina WIFI di irrigazione e devo ammettere che l'esperienza è stata estremamente positiva. L'installazione si è rivelata sorprendentemente semplice, e la configurazione delle diverse zone e dei programmi di irrigazione è stata intuitiva e priva di complicazioni.L'applicazione associata al sistema è stata una piacevole scoperta: offre una visione chiara e immediata dello stato operativo dell'impianto e una pratica cronologia delle irrigazioni per ogni zona. Un aspetto particolarmente apprezzabile è l'integrazione con i servizi meteorologici online, che consente di omettere automaticamente i cicli di irrigazione quando le condizioni meteo lo rendono superfluo, contribuendo così a un uso più consapevole e sostenibile dell'acqua.La compatibilità con Alexa rappresenta un ulteriore punto di forza, permettendomi di controllare l'irrigazione con semplici comandi vocali. Questa funzionalità si traduce in un notevole incremento della comodità d'uso. In sintesi, questo sistema di irrigazione si conferma una soluzione eccellente per chi cerca efficienza, facilità d'uso e rispetto per l'ambiente. Lo raccomando vivamente a chiunque desideri mantenere il proprio giardino in perfette condizioni con il minimo sforzo.

J'avais avant un controleur Rainbird qui fonctionnait correctement mais il n'avait aucune intelligence contrairement à Netro qui est connecté et possède des modes d'arrosage intelligent.Je recommande
