Keeps Trespassers From Stealing My Fruit! Until it Stopped Working
For years, strangers have been coming into my yard and stealing our mangoes! They walk up the driveway and through 10 feet of yard and, bold as brass, steal the fruit right off our tree. We wait for the fruit to tree-ripen, but they come in with bags and just take what they want. These aren't kids, they're grown adults (some over 60!) trespassing! A couple of times, entire families just raided it. I've tried yelling at them, but they just scamper off with whatever they want. It's a bit ridiculous! We planted the tree, take good care of it, and they just come and steal the fruit!This year, I decided to try the animal blaster! And it worked! A couple of times, we heard squeals as the water soaked the thieves, but we finally have fruit! It's so nice to be rid of this headache! Victory is ours!! :)The motion sensor is adjustable, so I've set it to where it won't go off in the wind, only when a person is walking toward it. It doesn't leak, so no water waste, and I adjusted the tap so the water goes right where I want it. It works great!After we've eaten all our fruit (finally!) I'll use it to keep the rabbits out of the fall vegetable garden.UPDATE: So it mysteriously stopped working after 5 months. :( I was using it to scare away rabbits and it just stopped entirely. Tried new batteries, that didn't work. I called Amazon to ask about the included 1 year manufacturer's warranty and they didn't have any way to contact the manufacturer. But Amazon said I could return it. Sad that what was a great product just konked out. I'll order another one from a different manufacturer and see how that goes.

Worth it!
Purchased 1 of these to help rid my yard/shed area of skunks and cats. It worked! I have been using it for a year and it is working well. Added a blink camera to the area as well. I now have some fun video footage for entertainment. Cats really dont like this sprinkler, hilarious!!! No more cat pooh from those stupid cats to deal with. The skunks retreat pretty quick as well.

This thing stinks!
Wow, what a great idea....gone HORRIBLY wrong.I was going away for a week and was concerned that my prize garden would be ravaged when I return. Thankfully, upon my return, the garden was okay, but, only due to the grace of god, because my 10 day old Cobra had stopped working. I set the item up per instructions and was really excited about the purchase when I left as it had been functioning well upon setup. Well, I returned from my vacation and was tiptoeing well around my proverbial tulips so as not to trigger the "lethal" Cobra and was surprise to find out that it was not sensing me. I approached....nothing....checked the battery case and resituated the batteries it started to work again, soaking me....no worries, right? At least it 'seemed' to be working...a few hours later, I went to harvest some Asparagus, and again the Cobra was either out of town or dead asleep because it completely missed me again. I checked the sensitivity dial-check. Opened the battery case again, jiggled the batteries as the first time and nothing happened. Changed the batteries to brand new batteries, nothing happened...until I tapped the battery case again, but this time, the Cobra awoke and would not shut down.....out there like a general lawn sprinkler....i tried to tap the battery case again, turn the sensitivity down and nothing worked. Suffice to say, as a frequent amazon shopper, it is one of the single worst purchases I have EVER made. Cheap, unreliable, and now, broken--what a POS!

Scares off the trash pandas!
I recently built a pond in the back yard, landscaped around it, filled it with fish and was loving it for about a week until the raccoons found it and started going for midnight swims and eating all the water lettuce and hyacinths. (I think the fish are still too small for them to notice). I bought this to see if it would be effective at scaring them off and found it works great, (if only I could remember to leave the water turned on at night).My outdoor camera has now caught quite a few instances of the trash pandas getting scared off by the sprinkler. The sensitivity angel is somewhat narrow so I’ve ordered a second one to install on the other side of the pond. Should be easy to install the second one as they have a hose extension cap that allows you to install these in series from a single water source.

Not as I had hoped
This does work, but it's far from perfect, at least for my needs. I bought this to keep my dogs from running the back fence and barking their heads off at the neighbor dogs. The first one leaked right out of the box and I had to get a replacement.Pros:-Does work. Detects movement and sprays water.-I'm fairly happy with the range of spray. Can easily be set short or long. At the shortest it sprays about 6 feet and at the longest it goes 30 feet or more.-Easy to set the width of sprayCons:-Says it detects motion from 0-30 feet and has a dial that goes from 0-9. The instruction say it is off at zero, so you would think at zero it detects no motion and at 9 it detects at 30 ft. Well, at zero it sprayed me while I was mowing (quite the unwelcome surprise!) and at 2 it detected me at 30 feet.-It detects too wide for my needs. I pointed it right down the fence and it detected to the side 15 feet away. Mind you, this was when it was set on 2 or less. I need my dogs to be able to only get sprayed at the fence, not when they are running by the house to go to the bathroom. I found if I point it more towards the fence it does work for my needs, but it's finicky.So far I'm not really thrilled with this deterrent but I do think it will work. I would say it works best if you need to spot things from a distance but will fall short if you need it for short range.
