## Verdict

IrriSense 2 is the easiest way to get zoned, weather aware watering without digging an in ground system, and three reviewers set it up in about 15 minutes. It needs a nearby outlet, strong Wi-Fi and good water pressure, and coverage can be uneven in the middle distance, so skip it if your tap is far from power or pressure is low.
