(More customer reviews)As a kid we had Melnor travelling sprinklers and seem to recall they worked very well. I am less than pleased with this version. Although it mentions not to use with new lawn, I did and the results were disappointing. You have to make sure that the connections are perfect. It does not handle even a slight incline well and lower water pressure tips the scales even further. I have to baby sit this thing to make sure it keeps moving. The sprinkler heads move very slowly unless going downhill. It was very contentious. When purchasing this item you would expect to set it even on a slight slope and watch it move at least 25 feet in an hour and have the sprinkler heads move in a rapid fashion. On even ground, the sprinkler heads slow to a crawl and sometime barely move at all and the progress it makes is generally about 5-7 feet per hour. My lawn is now almost fully grown and at this time I have abandoned it's use in favor of other sprinklers. Perhaps if you have everything going for you, slightly downhill slope, high water pressure, perfect connections and hard ground you will get better results.
I would recommend buying another "type" of sprinkler. They don't make them like they used to.
