Sprinkler Recommendation
Hi All,
I have a new lawn (turved) and purchased an impact sprinkler in order to water it daily as required (Sprinkler picture below)
It wasn't expensive, and an online purchase, however Im now on my second one having returned the first for what i think is a common problem - the head only rotating in one direction (clockwise) making it pretty useless.
The replacement has now started doing the same thing after 4 days use, and no amount of adjustment can get it to oscillate between the two end-stops. Mains water pressure is 4bar, so it's not a water pressure issue.
The garden is not huge (55M2) and an irregular shape. Can anyone recommend a decent sprinkler - preferably an impact type, but open to other recommendations?
Budget can be up-to around £30-40, and it will be used for around 2 hours a day unattended.
Thanks,
John.

About 5 years ago I bought this-

and I can't find fault with it - and no moving parts so nothing to go wrong.
Plenty of patterns available and with good pressure that you have it should do the trick.
