I bought some drip irrigation components this week and I hope to get my system set up this weekend for my veggie garden. The only thing that I haven't bought yet is an automatic water timer. What are some good single zone water timers? I don't need anything fancy with wifi or bluetooth controls. I just want something that is reliable and will work for a number of years. I've looked at a bunch online (an Orbit model, a Rainbird model, etc.) and the common complaint seems to be that the valves can stop functioning properly very quickly and will either stick open or closed. If anyone has found a water timer that works for a few years let me know which model you have.
