barely enough to get started
By A. Schoenbacher
This kit is seriously lacking in parts and directions. It is barely enough to get started. The directions are horrible. I consider myself a fairly handy person and made many mistakes due to having no idea what I was supposed to be doing. I have since figured much more out (www.dripdepot.com) and have pretty good drip irrigation knowledge, I would NOT buy this kit again.

A good start for your watering
By Leona
This worked well as a start for my garden. We have many plants that need individual drips and I ended up at home depot buying more to supplement the few that came with this kit. That being said it was a great buy for all the basics and I loved their “soaker” hose which wasn’t available at home depot.

Lacking necessary parts
By Brian
I bought two kits. Using the parts from two kits I was able to water a spread of 25 x 8 feet. About 150 ft of hose was left over, and there are no parts left for adding additional drips (I used all T adapters from both kits and all drip accessories). Not enough drip adapters are placed in the kits. Only 3 “T” connectors are in the kit. If you want additional, then you have to purchase more accessory kits. This kit is meant to get the shopper interested in buying more accessories, not about completing a home irrigation project.
