Reviews of RainMachine

Leave a Review RainMachine
★★★★★

  • New update forces us to pay for features which were free in previous firmware

    This is ridiculous, and as another customer’s one-star review stated, “shady” at the least. I get that the developer is always looking for new ways to increase revenue. But come on… do you really need to disable the connectivity features like remote access that were already in the product (and the reason many of us bought it), and now only restore those features when the owner purchases a “premium subscription”? Very lame. Exceptionally poor attitude to your customers. What will be next, a firmware update that disables the little LED display unless a monthly fee is paid? If you are considering buying one of these from Rainmachine, you might want to read the countless negative reviews first. Besides the bait and switch tactics, the iOS app remains seriously flawed, the app often fails to connect to the Rainmachine unit and just endlessly shows a spinning process indicator. Have to force the app to stop and reload. A waste of time.

  • Getting worse

    Was great for years. Now terrible. Slow, unreliable, and now unable connect more often than not.

  • Buy a Rachio or Other Smart Irrigation Controller instead

    When I bought the RainMachine irrigation controller, local and remote access control was included in the purchase price. Since then the company has begun to charge fees to access the app and control your irrigation system remotely from outside of the house. I would’ve recommended this company previously, but now I would urge any smart irrigation control part or to shop elsewhere. Additionally they have not been significant improvements to the application or the service provided. The cost of the RainMachine irrigation controller and the ongoing cost for remote access makes this a product/service whose value is no longer worth the cost. There are better and more cost effective option on the market. Many product reviewers no longer have RainMachine even in their top 10 of smart irrigation controllers.
