Orbit Watermaster 55461 Voyager 4-Inch Adjustable Pop-Up Gear Drive Sprinkler Head,2-Pack

I recently installed the Orbit Watermaster 55461 Voyager 4-Inch Adjustable Pop-Up Gear Drive Sprinkler Heads in my garden, and they have been performing exceptionally well. This 2-pack set offers great value and quality.The adjustability of these sprinkler heads is a standout feature. It's easy to adjust the spray pattern and distance, allowing for precise watering tailored to specific areas of my garden. This flexibility is crucial for ensuring that all parts of my yard receive adequate water without waste.The 4-inch pop-up height is perfect for getting over taller grass, ensuring even distribution of water. The gear drive mechanism is smooth and reliable, providing consistent coverage without getting stuck or jammed.I was also impressed by the build quality of these sprinkler heads. They feel robust and well-made, capable of withstanding outdoor elements and the wear and tear of regular use. The installation process was straightforward, and they fit perfectly with my existing irrigation system.Overall, the Orbit Watermaster Voyager Sprinkler Heads are an excellent investment for anyone looking to upgrade their lawn or garden irrigation. They provide efficient, customizable watering, and their durability suggests they will be a long-lasting solution for my watering needs. Highly recommend!

I love the easy adjustemnt verses my Rainbirds. The range and spread were each easy to adjust. I will stick with these from now on.

Great price . Sprinkler works great as described

This sprinkler has a 3/4" inlet so if your system uses 1/2" fittings, be prepared to add a reduction stem! Other than that, it works perfectly.

As pictured, nothing else included. No tool/key or nozzles, refuse your old ones or buy more. It comes with nozzle 7 pre-installed but I prefer the 3.0 nozzle, which I did not have so I put in 4.0 instead. The top plate does not have the cutout for lifting the nozzle with the Orbit key, so adjustments are a bit more difficult than with the Orbit Professional I am replacing, 3rd pic. Try to set all the adjustments before installing, like the rotation degrees, then install it clocked to the correct position. My sprinkler was MISSING after winter, no idea where it went, so I could not reuse my 3.0 nozzle.

I have used Orbit, Toro, Rain Bird and Hunter rotors. I had not run my 8 zone irrigation system for over 8 years due to a broken manifold and bad valves. When I decided to get the system up and going I inspected the 45 heads I have in rotors, pop-ups and shrubbery heads. The one thing I noticed was that the Orbit professional products were in the best condition for their age when compared to the other brands. Most of the other brand products had suffered sun damage to the top of the heads making radius and arc adjustment impossible to accommodate the changes in the landscaping layout over the years. I have replaced about 80% of the heads so far. One rotor was defective but a replacement was sent out same day and return postage paid by Amazon. The Orbit products are easy to adjust and install. Adjustment after installation is very easy unlike some of the other products I have used. The rotors come with a big selection of various nozzles and adjustment tool. They have a good warranty. The durability, ease of use and low price make them the only line I would use.One thing I would recommend is that in areas where the head can be run over by cars or rider mowers or stepped on is to put them on flex pipe. It is simple to do. I did this years ago and it has prevented almost all the damage to the heads and in-ground piping that happened frequently especially along the edge of my curved driveway.

We have acres of lawn, alfalfa, rhubarb gardens... all on scheduled watering zones. Our original system served only some of this... with substantial faults which we were eventually able to overcome by replacing our original impact popups with the Voyager II. Much has been learned, and much has been tried. But much research finally compelled us to experiment with the Voyager II, and it has since exceeded our best hopes in every application, and become our go-to sprinkler head. Why?The original installation was not properly distributed to avoid areas of lawn die-off in the hottest parts of summer. Equally bad, the original (and later) impact popups fail to equally distribute water across their radii... and this too resulted in radial patterns of die-off in an otherwise gorgeous lawn.I first decided to try the Voyager II on 60-inch stanchions in an experimental alfalfa field I planted around our trout pond. We now have a jungle of alfalfa and giant red clover.The reach of these heads is phenomenal. They come with a great variety of nozzles... advertising coverage radii as great as 52 feet. Read the specifications carefully however — that prospective coverage is delivered with just one of the many nozzles, and a single sprinkler head per zone only. It's a proverbial fire hose. For most deployments, the original nozzle is going to perform about the best (I've tried them all). It's rectangular in shape, but emits a literal vertical wall of water across its whole radius, leaving no unwatered parts. We get a 42-foot watering radius at 45 PSI with the Voyager II and this standard nozzle... while a variety of impact popup brands and nozzles typically reach a maximum of 22 to 26 feet (depending on brand and nozzle) on the same system. In other words, the phenomenal radii and full distribution of water across the Voyager II radii allowed us to make up for substantial faults in the prior system design, and to cover phenomenal areas from each zone. Somehow, the watering pattern is so superior, that all our brown spots disappear under the Voyager II.Ultimately it was obvious that the limited and inconsistent coverage of our original impact and other heads could be solved by replacing them with the Voyager II. With the supplied nozzle, every Voyager II watering head now overlaps areas which were not even reached by the previous system. Because of the faulty distribution we came to recognize, I'll never use an impact sprinkler again... and I doubt that even far into the future, the spray radius of the Voyager II can be much improved upon. Our whole yard is a beautiful green now.One thing to understand however: High winds can blow such a long radius significantly off course. We get some really high winds. But the long and short of it is that your decision is whether to suffer the uncovered areas and lawn-brown... or see your whole watering pattern shifted or much of it blown away in preclusive conditions.To be bothered by the latter would be akin to complaining we might shut our system down when it rains.Incidentally, our system is supplied by a well at 45 psi producing upward of 20 GPM; distributed via buried 1-inch schedule 40 PVC thru separate Orbit 6 and 9-station timers, manifolds, and valves; with every low point featuring an Orbit automatic drain valve.
