Product and connectivity is beyond poor, returned all devices
Today I took all three MELNOR BT hose connectors I bought back to Lowe's. I still have one. None of these devices has ever worked consistently. Very slow connection and dropped connections all the time. This is the most inconvenient and inconsistent product I have ever bought for my watering schedule. I cannot scare enough people away from these. I truly hate them and the company is of no help. Don't buy. I beg of you, these are AWFUL. The company will not answer their phones or take calls or give you technical support or honor their own warranties. They don't care and they're too incompetent to do their jobs.
UPDATE: 10/6/2026 The newer ones my neighbor bought on mainland don't work either. They drop connections and we had to turn the devices on/off about twenty times each night this week to get the water working. The water ALWAYS turns off right away but it never starts when we press either the buttons on the devices manually, or use the app. This was across multiple devices with five WiFi and Bluetooth bars the entire time. It's turning the water on that was the problem and what the devices consistently do not do. My neighbor is returning his devices too. I warned him.

Can’t set the duration of the watering schedule.
There is instructions on how to set the duration of watering from 12 hours to let’s say 6 hours, but I can’t find it anywhere on the app. I have the latest version of the app and my controller is brand new, so I guess I’m at a loss because 12 hours is way too long to automatically water your lawn.

Great for just needing a timer
App can be a little hard to navigate like the settings for frequency and day of the week mode. Otherwise, really easy to set up, pairs easily, and (the best part) I don’t have to sign into an app just to water my plants. Honestly, hands down amazing product for being very cheap ($40 for two valve)

Not worth it
Does not work as should.

Both the timer & app really are horrible
The physical device is unreliable & the app is barely functional (both the android & iOS versions). Do not buy this device!
