Hunter Industries Hydrawise X2 8-Station Outdoor Irrigation Controller

Worked perfectly

I have four Hunter controllers controlling 38 zones in Arizona heat. They have been in place for 4 years and I have had zero problems. I highly recommend the Hunter brand. They may be expensive in the beginning but if you don’t need to replace them they are economical in the long run.

This irrigation controller is sturdy and I am confident it will hold up to outdoor use. It is easy to install and the cabinet has plenty of room for wiring, it also has extra knockouts for multiple conduits. Programming is easy and there are advanced features like a valve check that tests all stations for short circuits and a seasonal adjustment. I did not install the WiFi module as I prefer an offline controller.

Very happy. Easy to program and also easy to run a manual zone.Grew tired of another brand that was Bluetooth and it very often did not function because it said signal was lost.

Easy to program and easy to set up follow video for install.

Works great. The solar adjustment feature and ability to connect to a backyard weather station is great. Saving as much as 60% water usage with the auto-adjust feature.

Installed the 3 piece Hunter system, timer, Rain Sensor, antenna sensor. Took me a good hour. System is not intuitive at all. Couldn’t even find my Network. I had to manually enter it. Make sure you take picture of serial number on chip for setup & rebate. Everything worked great when I installed 3 days ago. Then my internet went down for 30 minutes & it did not connect back to router 10 feet away. You would think it would be smart enough to get me back to running but nope. After trying to set up all over again several times & it still would not work. I finally deleted the app. & reinstalled it, took me through the entire set up process all over again. It finally worked but could not remember basic items like password & internet name. This took me about 3 hours of trouble shooting & it ends up being the app? What a disappointment. Then the rain sensor disabled the watering program & app. does not tell me why. Should say rain or forecast or some identifier. So I had to trouble shoot that to insure it was still paired & connected to controller found out it was forecast. No customer service phone number available for problems. I had to email & they said they would respond in 24 hours. Very disappointed, what a joke. Absolutely no customer service in a timely matter.

Exactly what I needed to replace the aging sprinkler system box that was original when we bought the house. Wired up exactly like the old one and works perfect
