I have two Orbit Compact Gear Drive…
I have two Orbit Compact Gear Drive sprinklers on spike I bought in 2022 and 2023. I have the receipts. The packaging says it is guaranteed for 6 years. They both broke. A little piece flew off one of the things, nowhere to be found, so it just goes in circles now. The other one slips around the stops until it bumps up against the other stop and stops. It doesn't even return to the other side. So I called the company and got the runaround. I had to take pictures, so I did. Then the guy wanted me to run some water thru the thing to clean out the debris. First off, there is no debris in the thing, If it's not washing out when I turn on the water it's not going to magically clear out any debris just because the guy asked me to. There is no way to take these things apart. For me in this instance, I feel like the company is a rip-off. My recommendation ... DON'T BUY AN ORBIT SPRINKLER!!!
