Still looking for a lawn sprinkler or two. In the backyard , we have a
medium/large lawn and also a row of flowers; need to avoid spraying a
walkway as well as neighbors' property.

Looking at a few choices---

1. For the backyard, these two oscillating types seem well rated:

&sr=8-1

_bbs_2/102-4830807-3392908?ie=UTF8&s=hi&qid=1184093587&sr=8-2

Any experience with them?

2. The following seems to be well rated, but I am not sure if
"pulsating" means the stream will be too powerful and damage the
flowers?

3. The oscillators may be too big for the front garden? Also not sure
if I want to leave them in the parkway to be stolen (Chicago, after
all).

This is small and can be placed in tight spots or in the front :

ETQK09HN&pf_rd_t=101&pf_rd_p=278240301&pf_rd_i=507 846

The following would serve the same purpose, but has bad review about
uniformity of watering:

ETQK09HN&pf_rd_t=101&pf_rd_p=278240301&pf_rd_i=507 846

So here is a more expensive one with no reviews:

Appreciate all comments from all experienced hands!

I would put ice cubes in a specific pattern out in the morning. The heat of
the day will melt them and water where you need it.

LOL, You really bad.
