Best Sprinklers for Small Lawns reviews
1. Orbit 62100 Yard Enforcer Motion-Activated Sprinkler with Day & Night Detection Modes
The Orbit 62100 is a little deterrent sprinkler head that is packed with day and night motion detection capabilities. The motion sensor sweeps through a 1200 arc of motion. That means you can only choose either day or night but not both. Either way, the technology is great and helps you conserve water and battery life.
My neighbor rears those bothersome poultry that he occasionally ‘forgets to restrain’. Most of the time, they end up in my flower bed and damage the flowers, giving me sleepless nights. Last week, however, I stumbled upon this gem and bought it right away.
I was worried the system would waste my water by triggering a spray once a wind gust hits the trees in the yard and the sensor triggers a ‘humane scare water spray’.
Thanks to the inbuilt intelligent technology, it doesn’t just spray on anything, but a real moving object like an unwanted animal coming to my flower beds. When I want to water the lawns, it doesn’t disappoint too. It’s like I have just killed two birds with a single sling shot.
Strength
- Humanely repels pests and animals
- Superior coverage
- Intelligent technology that saves water and battery
- Waters lawn and deters pests
- Unique day and night motion sensors
Limitations
- Can’t be shipped outside the US

2. GrowGreen Sprinkler
If your garden looks ‘not so in shape’ and you want to get it back to a bright, healthy look, this sprinkler will do the magic.
Why are we including it on the list of the best sprinklers for a small lawn? Firstly, this sprinkler head is designed to spray in any direction. That way, it allows you full control over where the water will be landing in your lawn.
To ensure that the sprinkler is well secured on the ground, the sprinkler base is weighted to ensure it doesn’t move.
The sprinkler is designed to serve you for a longer time. It is made of durable, high-quality ABS plastic. Besides, the metallic parts are coated with rust-proof polymer, guaranteeing you a longer life. Besides, the sprinkler is easy to install and use.
So, if you don’t have the luxury of time, this sprinkler head will be ideal for you. The sprinkler head is fitted with water conservation technology that helps minimize water wastage. It also prevents over-watering.
This sprinkler can be put into other interesting uses. If you have a family gathering and want to inject a dose of fun-filled moments to grace the summer (mojo), this one won’t disappoint. It can also be used to cool down during such hot days.
Strengths
- Sports a durable construction
- Highly powerful
- Weighted base for stability
- Can be put in other uses apart from lawn spraying
- Water conserving
- Time-saving
Limitations
- Won’t last for a very long time because the plastic material might not last as long as brass.

3. Melnor XT Turbo Oscillating Sprinkler
Featuring a great clog resistant design, this baby from Melnor makes another great choice.
It also comes with a host of other benefits that we love. It offers you the capacity to cover a larger area plus a more flexible water pattern selection – that are ideal for bigger lawns. Besides, the 3-way adjustments allow you to control the exact amount of water and exactly where you want it.
The zoom control helps adjust the watering area, while the twin touch adjusters control the width of your watering area. The smooth operating tabs, on the other hand, makes the Melnor XT Turbo Oscillating Sprinkler control the length the water goes.
