 Built To Handle Higher Pressures November 24, 2007
Steve Dietrich (Santa Ynez Valley and Santa Monica CA, United States)
I live in an area where the water pressure is over 100psi and I have long runs to the irrigation valves. The end result is a lot of pounding and frequent valve failures. These valves are tougher than most that are rated at 100 or 125psi and easy to service. Highly recommended.

Valve worked until it started to leak. I called Toro Cust. service and was told they do not sell replacement parts for this item. It has a screw off top with some gaskets in it which would take 5 minutes to replace if they sold them. Now I have to buy a new valve, uninstall the old one and install a new one.
 Very Poor Quality April 21, 2008

This is the 2nd Model of Toro Valves I've used (2 Sets of 8). This Model was even worse than the first Toro model that I used, the body of which froze and fractured over winter even though they had been properly installed, drained and blown out. I paid Toro's higher than their competitor's price because I wanted a quality, trouble-free product. (My water pressure is about 100 psi; much lower than the valve's rating.) Out of 8 valves of this model, 3 diaphragms and 2 solenoids failed during the first season. To make matters worse, Toro will not supply repair parts or kits like their competition does. I refuse to ever again purchase any Toro sprinkler system or other lawn/landscaping equipment or product. I am now using totally problem-free Rainbird valves.
