Great tree saver! Sep 06, 2008
By Shreveportww I purchased this to deep water our trees that were newly planted in the spring. The TX drought was taking a toll on them and the ground was so hard and had deep cracks throughout that when watered the water ran off of where it truly needed to be. With the deep root irrigator I am now able to cut my watering time in half. I can do a deep water and have it get right to the root system. My trees perked up almost instantly. Others stated there should be a turnoff on the item, I went to Lowes and purchased a .97 cent turnoff and it works great! This item definetely saves time and water since it doesn't runoff and gets to where it needs to be!

Yard butler, not as I had hoped Jul 07, 2010
By TobyGP I had previously used a root irrigator that had holes on the sides of the rod and wasn't able to tell how this was designed before the purchase. Unfortunately, it only has one hole it and is at the end and points downward. The downfall is, when you're pushing the yard butler into the ground, it becomes clogged with dirt and isn't functional until you pull it back out and clean it out. I solved the problem by drilling holes in the side of it to irrigate trees without the hassle of having to unclog it over-and-over. It serves it's purpose with some additional work, would recommend buying one with holes in the side, not the bottom.

Robust Garden Tool Jul 04, 2009
By D. Tipton I was pleased to find that this tool is well made. No doubt, the heavy steel used and its simple design will make this product last a long time. Inserting the rod into the soil is a breeze with the water turned on high - it pretty much drills itself into the ground with little help needed. If deep-root watering is what your trees need, get one of these.

Four stars, one hole Nov 03, 2007
By William O. Schwennicke Seems well built. Squirts water straight down from a single hole. I had a similar unit that squirted water to the side from two opposite holes. Liked that better because it wet a wider area.

Sturdy Jul 15, 2011
By R. M. Mayhew I've had other root feeders and they simply didn't hold up. For those and the Yard Butler, I've first hammered a section of rebar into the ground to make a hole. This seems to extend the life of the feeder quite a bit. My Yard Butler was "plugged up" when it arrived but I used a nail to push the blockage back into the tube and then used water to reverse flush it out. Worked fine after that. The big drawback to this feeder is the fact it doesn't have a built-in fertilizer system. I ended up buying a Hozon Brass Siphon Mixer (which is listed here on Amazon) and I liked the way it worked. You mix a big bucket of whatever you are going to use and then put the siphon in the bucket, turn on the water and come back later. My other feeders would run 5 or 10 minutes before needing to be reloaded with pellets. I left the Hozon/Yard Butler running for an hour.
Hint: If you turn the water on before putting the Yard Butler into the ground it will help keep it from clogging.
I would buy the Yard Butler again.
See my review on the Hozon Brass Siphon Mixer for the negatives on that unit.
