About this product

Product Information

Watering your lawn can be fun with this traveling lawn sprinkler tractor. The Nelson lawn watering device is made from rust-proof cast iron. Use a hose to preset the tractor's course just like you would lay track for an electric toy train, and the tractor will travel along this track as it waters your lawn. It has adjustable spray patterns and arcs, and it has a convenient automatic shutoff, so no tools are required for installation.

    Rain Train

    These are great BUT......they have INTENTIONALLY, at Gilmour, made the main internal gear PLASTIC/NYLON that drives the rear wheels. This means that if this sprinkler runs into an obstruction for a short period of time IT WILL strip that gear. So why doesn't Gilmour make the gear metal? Answer, why should they put a metal gear in it when dummies like me know this and keep buying them anyway! The best alternative solution? ALWAYS and I mean ALWAYS use the water shut off ramp that comes with the unit. Also don't expect it to do more than 75 feet and you should get consistent service over the long haul. The longer the hose run the greater the possibility of it jumping the hose and running into something not intended. It is a hearty piece of lawn equipment EXCEPT FOR THAT DAMN GEAR!!!!

    Solid but Slow

    If you envision this model tractor sprinkler is just like the ones in use many years ago, you're going to be disappointed. The newer tractor sprinklers, like this one, no longer have metal wheels and weigh a country ton. That said, this is a solid tractor sprinkler, with the same, familiar cast iron body, and it works. But even on "fast" mode, it's terribly slow, and limited in its sprinkler pattern and options. If you need this sprinkler for a long patch of grass, it might just do the trick for you. If you hope it will eliminate your need to hand water trees or give your garden a good soaking, you'll be disappointed. It's a decent, solid sprinkler, just keep your expectations low.

    Second to none

    So far so good, great color great price. This tractor will pull a 100 foot hose full of water with no problem. I got tired of dragging the hose myself, and now my Nelson tractor does it with ease and turns off at the shutoff attachment. It waters great and easy adjustment by rotating arms. Plain and simple it is great, just like the old ad, SET IT AND FORGET IT. If you see one in a yard spraying, just ask them and I bet they love it. Oh yea it curves around and follows the hose. Tano

    Excellent product! Not cheaply made. High quality.

    I had a very old Nelson Raintrain. It was old and worn out. Pretty must lost all the treads on the wheels but I kept using it. Then it blew the big gasket and just wouldn't go anymore. I was panicking like oh my tractor sprinkler has officially died.. I took a chance thinking oh this new one will not be as heavy duty as my antique one. I was wrong! It is awesome. I am more than happy with this purchase! Thank you!

    "Have water, will travel..."

    There's nothing new about the Nelson travelling sprinkler. It has been around for over 70 years. Ingenious simplicity. It travels along the hose, gets to the end of the pattern you have laid out, and rides up a stop ramp that shuts it off automatically--so you waste no water. It is the best way to make certain that every corner of your lawn is thoroughly watered. It literally is a tractor! Looks like a 19th century tractor with their solid wheels with tines. More people with fine lawns use these and some people prefer them to in ground systems which are prone to breakdown and broken pipes. I think a Nelson Rain Train sprinkler is the finest product available for watering your lawn and I highly recommend it.
