It’s fairly straight forward to set up, with multiple hose fittings to connect to your outlet. Only issue is that plants near the hose have much more line pressure than those further away the line. If you want equal volume of water for each outlet, you need to adjust the dial at each outlet. The problem is that for my setup, my further plants have the dial loosened all the way, and my closest have it tightened all the way, and can be a bit tricky to set up. What might be easier is variable thickness pipes to make it a bit easier so you still have adjustability. Definitely not a major issue, but does take more time to calibrate if this is a concern.

I bought this "Flantor Drip Irrigation Kit, Garden Irrigation System 1/4" Blank Distribution Tubing Watering Drip Kit/DIY Saving Water Automatic Watering System for Garden, Greenhouse, Flower Bed, Patio, Lawn", for my wife's potted plants while we are on vacation. The assembly of the pieces were easy and hard. When connecting the tubing to the "3-way Barb Coupling", it was rather hard. To get around this I put the coupling in the freezer and the tubing in some hot water. I recommend wearing gloves when putting the tubing on the barbs. However, putting the "dripper nozzle" onto a pigtail of tubing from the "3-way Barb Coupling" was real easy. So easy in fact the nozzle popped off when the tubing had been in the direct sunlight for a while. To get around this problem, I put a small tie-wrap around the nozzle barb (tie wrap NOT part of the kit). Also, I did not like the advertised nozzle configuration where the water sprinkled up and down. So I made a new fitting where the nozzle was pointing up using two 1" tubing, a "3-way Barb Coupling" and an endcap fitting (all part of the kit) - see pix. This way the water sprinkles out thus distributing water around the pot, not just in one place. I also noticed the "2-way 3/4" faucet connector" seem to leak a little. I think the barbs on this connector are ever so slightly too small. With the water on, I could move the tubing and water would squirt out. To mitigate this (but not fix), I applied a small tie wrap to those hoses also (see pix). We go on vacation soon. This will tell if this network of hoses will survive on its own for a week. Hope this helps.
