Customer Reviews for DIG Drip Irrigation Watering Kit

This is a really good starter kit. I have a small 14'x14' garden and this kit had most of what I needed to set up drip irrigation. I did have to buy more parts - a few elbow pieces, more drippers, stakes, and 1/4" soaker hose. It's a great foundation to start from though.

Had everything I needed to get started at a reasonable price. Got started w/$17.00 finished at $110!

I was at first hesitant if this would work, I used on one side of my landscaping it does help.. the red and green drippers helped, black was not helpful..also prefer if we have rotating drippers.. value for money!!

Nicely designed with good illustrations. Easy to design layouts and to implement. Several ways to effectively use and incorporate various spray and drip heads. This is very close to a full mininslistv design for drip and low flow irrigation. When I explain the design to neighbors they seem to quickly grasp how the system works. As a recent graduates from a Masters level Environmental Leadership uprogram I appreciate the water savings aspects is the usage of this product. Here in the West, water is everything. This is a great product to 'dip your toe into' and get wet with its usage.;

Good balance of supplies to use for starting a system.

Works great just feel it did not come with enough attachments. Not a big problem though just means another trip to Home Depot

Great product. Price is unbeatable. Just make sure to not tighten the fittings too much..they can Crack which it did in my case.

Simple installation ,Functioning as described and reasonable price.

Kit was easy to install. Great price.

Super easy to set up. Works as advertised. Did have to get more 1/4" tee junctions, more tubing holders, and more 1/4" tubing to finish off my install. The price for the extra stuff was nominal. Good kit for 10-20 plants, with the additions mentioned.

Great product! Great price! This system has saved me so much time and worry about watering.

The specifically rated flow regulator's in my "DIG" brand kit flowed at varying rates. One of the 1GpH fittings flowed a steady stream of water (it was clearly defective). There are no drip line end fitting included to protect the lines from dirt and insects. The stakes for water lines are poorly designed and in an inadequate quantity. There is not one single aspect of this kit that makes it better than other brands. But, it does deliver water to the plants.

Great value for money. Easy to install.

The kit has everything you need for drip irrigation. In order tp connect tubing to the plastic connectors I used hot water. Put the end of the tubing into hot water for 30 seconds and then connection was very easy. I would suggest to add more barb connectors and T connectors that will allow you to custom tailor the tubing to the needs of your herb garden or patio pots. After we figured out how to set up the timer, the rest was easy. I would recommend to take time and draw the layout of your plants on the piece of paper and decide where you will have just drippers, and where you will need microtubing with T-barb connectors.

BUYER BEWARE! Check the photo and read the contents carefully. This is probably my fault, but nonetheless, it's aggravating. I purchased this set seeing that it had 20 emitters, which worked for me because I was only connecting the irrigation to ten plants. That's the good part. However, there are only two inline barbs and two t-shaped barbs to connect the emitters to the tubing. Why would they include 20_1-gal/hr emitters, 2_2-gal/hr emitters, and 2_4-gal/hr emitters but only four different options to connect them to the tubing, allowing you to connect a total of six emitters, unless you are connecting them to the large tubing? That's fine if you are running tubing along the ground and can place the emitters directly next to the plants, but if you irrigating plants in containers, you will need more connecting barbs. Come on. How much could it possibly cost to throw in a barb for each emitter? At the volume they buy these things from China, how much could it possibly cost? They probably get them for 100's or 1,000's for mere pennies. Other than this, the product is fine. It assembles and connects easily, and if it were not for the lack of connections in the kit, I would have given it five stars. As I said, it's probably my fault for not reading the fine print or counting the connecting barbs in the photo. The problem is now I have to make another trip to HD to buy extra connections, so I can finish my project. No. I would not recommend this product because of this. If you decide to buy this, make sure you buy additional barbs, so you can connect all the emitters. Otherwise, you will be making another trip to HD in order to finish your project.

Drip irrigation kit was excelente! It was relatively easy to install , but I do recommend purchasing an automatic timer to have it water plants, shrubs, etc. in specific time intervals.

The tubing and fittings were easy to install.When I turned the system on, the drippers were all supplying water at different rates. Some were even spraying water. I went on the website and couldn't find any information on how to fix my problem. I'm going to remove the drippers and install some small pneumatic fittings in place of the drippers. Water will come out faster, but at a consistent rate so I can calculate how long to run the water. Also the small tubing is too stiff and I will replace with flexible tubing. Overall I'm not real happy with the system.

The product was easy to install, however, it really needed more stakes to maintain the hose system in place. I had to purchase more, so as to keep the tubing in place. We purchased several more sprinkler heads to cover the needed area but seems at this point to be doing the job.

Excellent kit and not expensive

Great kit, I used every piece, works very well.

Easy to setup. Could use some 90 degree joints and more stakes to hold pipe in place.

Great kit, easy to install; once you get going it's easy to figure out what extra parts you might need for expansion.

but you need to buy .more connectors. save your trip to home depot and buy alll together.

This is a very good kit that has everything you need to get started with a drip irrigation system. It comes complete with comprehensive instructions on how to set up, install and operate the watering system. If you find that you need additional items you can get them at the Home Depot without any problem. This is a must for someone with a any size perennial or vegetable garden. If you get a battery operated timer valve it becomes a complete, automatic system. It is economically priced with high quality components that should last a very long time. I highly recommend.

Great kit to get started with. It was ideal for my first time running drip irrigation. The kit really could have used a few more 1/4" fittings but hey, it got me started and I gained an education that allows me to expand my drip irrigation system.

excellent for price, but kit was missing the blue hole maker

It broke and ripped. I tossed it in the garbage and took the loss

Good basic starter kit.

It took my husband a bit of learning but it works well.
