It's not bad at all with mine being 5.5 feet above the ground (bottom of the TV). You just get used to it. Although my main seating is 13 feet away so that helps. I was originally also going to say get a mount with a tilt, but thinking about it, i don't think that actually helps with neck bending at all haha.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member.

Tilt is only important if your tv has shitty viewing angles.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote

In my case my family room has a ceiling light placed in like the worst possible location so it shows the reflection when its on even looking at the TV dead straight. Tilting the TV downward is my temp fix until i eventually get to my renovations and can replace this horrible light.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
I have 2 Gardena sprinklers similar to this style, both of them stopped oscillating without cranking up the water significantly higher then needed. I pulled them both apart and managed to get one moving again with lube although I lost the limiter function due to a failed O-ring, and the other newer one, will randomly stop oscillating without really high pressure. I had no luck with a google search on what the fix would be.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote

I've also seen this complaint repeatedly on reviews; but, I'm already finding that this sprinkler demands a higher flow which can be difficult to conceive. Still, just feed that water through and be done watering that much sooner.
My old shit box $9 nonsense "did fine" with low flow but if the watering took 3hr instead of 0.75hr... Was I winning?
No.
The Gardena stuff is great until it breaks. It's well designed but very cheaply built and very expensive. My parents have been gardeners for over 30 years now and have slowly stopped buying Gardena stuff because it's too expensive and doesn't seem to last long. Mostly sprinklers, quick connectors, and hose nozzles in their case.
This is what you want for reliability haha - $15 and it will probably outlast your home:
Have one of those (it's ancient and still works like new) and an impact sprinkler (that's not quite as old but works perfectly too) - the impact sprinkler has just such a relaxing sound when it's working.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
2 new lawnmower blades from PA
Is it mounted on the house or is it just a noisy outdoor fan blade? My older unit has just 2 blades so it makes a chopping sound like a helicopter. (but quieter). As for lifespan, if it has a scroll compressor it should last a lifetime with the small run hours a home in Calgary needs.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
Best sprinkler is a "vortex" sprinkler. Zero moving parts and works at all flow rates. Only drawback is the circular pattern.

Mounted to the house so we do get some direct vibration transfer, but the housing is cheap/thin and makes a constant rattle while it's running. The fan blades are about average.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote

False. The best sprinkler is built in and one that you deal with once a year.

Purging them in the fall kind of sucks, as does if you ever hit one with a mower haha, but other than that you can't beat the convenience.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
My built in sprinkler is pretty good and hasn't broken down in the time that I have been alive. Capacity is a bit low though.

The zero gap mount the frame comes with is certainly not a gimmick. It looks awesome.
All things considered with what the frame comes with, wall mount, one connect box, etc. It’s not nearly as overpriced as I thought.
I got mine for 1,800 tax in otd which helps. The vision salesbro was bragging to me that he could get me a better deal than the online sale I bought it on too so if anyone wants to deal with the sleaze bags give it a try to save even more haha.

Turning up the water won't equate to being done sooner at my house, it will simply mean that I'm watering the street, house, parked cars, the sidewalk, back alley......This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
I bought an impact style sprinkler today, we'll see how it lasts.

I just fill up pails of water in my bathtub and then go pour them on the dry spots on the grass. You guys are slaves to the sprinkler industry.
