This pond/waterfall was easy to install, and looks great. The morning after installation a frog moved in! I recommend it to anyone who would like an inexpensive small water feature.

Toro 53733 4-Inch Pop-Up Sprinkler Head with 15-Foot Adjustable Pattern Nozzle Review

A GREEN lawn that is.Having owned my house in So. Cal. since 2000, I noticed in 2003 that most of the original Lawn Genie pop-up sprinklers in my front and back yards were starting to fail:Not retracting, broken nozzle tips, and leaks.I got a gift card at a local home improvement store and decided to give these TORO 570 pop-up sprinklers a try.The ARC nozzles come preinstalled on top of the sprinkler bodies so I didn't have to purchase them separately.

Installation was simple: remove old sprinklers by gently pushing aside grass and soil with a small shovel and unscrewing the entire sprinkler assembly.Occasionally the top of the sprinkler body cap would unscrew by itself so a pair of adjustable joint pliers was used to grip the entire sprinkler body to remove it.The old sprinklers were wider so screwing in these svelte Toro 570s were a cinch.No plumbers/teflon tape was necessary.Be careful not to push too much dirt inside the pipe connectors.A little bit of dirt is easily sprayed out and any large objects can be removed from the filter by disassembling JUST the top cap of the sprinkler body.The ARC adjustable nozzles are really helpful in setting up the exact angle of spray necessary for each corner of my yard; just turn on the sprinkler control and twist the top portion of the nozzle to adjust.The pop-up section also has a clicking detent to prevent it from rotating after it's set.

Overall: The Toro 570 3" sprinklers that were installed in 2003 are still working well but the tops of the sprinkler body caps are showing signs of UV degradation/wear. I've switched to 4" in 2008 after allowing my lawn to grow longer which helps in decreasing watering time, fighting disease & weeds, and provides a more lush and DEEP GREEN lawn.However, your lawn grass type may have different requirements.

It's Great to see some consistent GREEN (lawns) with all the economic turmoils around the world.

Good Luck!

Sunterra 370012 Sunterra Waterfall Gardens Complete Pond Kit, Two Ponds With Waterfall Review

I set mine up with my dad about 2 months ago and it was pretty easy installation. I have to agree that the filter is not so great. It clogs up and you have to clean it every few days depending on quantity of fish and plants. So i suggest short roots for floating plant or grounded roots. Koi fish makes the pond really come alive as they are very active and friendly. My pond first pond dimensions are about 5' by 5' by 1.5' and a small river connects to a smaller pond which is circular and has a circumference of about 2'. max depth is 6". So my pond holds a little over 200 gallons. So im giving this one a 4/5 because of the filter. But hey what do i know? This is my first pond. Might get a second smaller one next summer

Neoterics Blaster 3000 Filters Up to 34" Review

Neoterics Blaster 3000 Filters Up to 34'
Average Reviews:

I live in the Palm Springs, Ca area, and the wind often blows significant quantities of sand and organic particulates (filter-clogging mesquite tree leaves) into my pool.My automatic pool vacuum effectively clears the debris into the filter wherein lies the problem which the Blaster 3000 solves so well.I hate hosing /off/out my pool filter because it is time consuming, tedious, inefficient, and the results are often less then I would have hoped for.With the Blaster 3000, I hook up the hose, set it on the driveway, put the filter on it, and let it clean.15-20 minutes later the filter is really clean.This unit has made my most dreaded chore a snap, and I find that I am more motivated than ever to keep my pool looking its best without having to hire somebody to do it for me.I would recommend the Blaster to anybody with a pool that uses filter cartridges.

The pump is super for my pond and waterfall which is over 100 feet from the house and any 120 volt outlet.By using the low voltage wiring, the pump and light both provide exactly what I want for my garden at a very reasonable cost.
