Fiskars Oscillating Sprinklers

A lot of things can go wrong when you use a lawn sprinkler. One false move and you end up flooding the patio or showering passing pedestrians. Rarely does the water actually end up on the area of lawn it is meant to be irrigating. Fiskars considered this problem in depth and came up with a user-friendly solution that really works thanks to oscillating sprinklers. The range of each sprinkler can be individually adjusted to ensure even, efficient and precise irrigation and optimised water consumption. Width, range and direction are set with intuitive controls, and the flow rate is also infinitely variable. However, this convenient functional concept isn’t the only outstanding product feature. The jury was also won over by the fact that “an innovative storage and setup concept gives this oscillating sprinkler a brand-new aesthetic”. The jury further noted: “The controls are also carefully designed and easy to understand. The attention to detail is obvious, even when it comes to the little things that make the product so practical for the user.” For example, the sprinkler’s clever design permits uncomplicated cleaning, which also extends the product’s lifespan. A large, rust-free filter prevents dirt and debris from entering the sprinkler, and the soft spray nozzles can be cleaned between uses by simply wiping them down. Removable end caps also make it possible to thoroughly rinse the housing. The judges praised the concept for the “robust metal base, which gives the pivoting spray element excellent stability”. The compatibility of the universal connector with other brand products may seem initially confusing. After all, a company likes customers to remain loyal to its own brand. However, Fiskars included this feature because consumers are insistent that they don’t want to have to replace an entire system if they switch brands. It also reflects Fiskars’ very sustainable corporate philosophy of eliminating unnecessary purchases. Consistency is therefore another trademark – together with the certainty that over time people who purchase Fiskars products will always come to appreciate the combination of aesthetics, functionality and high quality that distinguishes the brand.
