4 of them, $60 shipped. These are not the impact type of sprinker. These are "flow thru", gentle overhead watering ...you can connect them together with standard 3/4" garden hose or you can cap one end off and use them as stand alone. (Caps and filters included) Each flows 6.4 gpm at 60 psi. I tested them at 40 psi and I estimated flow to be right at 4.0 gpm. Each has three "arms" with adjustable tips on each arm, plus, it shoots a gentle, "warbling" stream out the top. Model #884D. Made of plastic. They are advertised as being able to provide up to 50 feet of coverage but I tested them "in line" and received about 25 feet of coverage.

I tested these twice behind two different pumps, that is it. They are practically brand new. They work well but could not meet the need that my large patch requires.

The 884's are hard to find on the shelf, they are generally special order from Gilmour. Gilmour will not sell direct to the public. The first order of 6 that I placed thru a local Lowes, accidently got put on the shelf and all six were sold that day. This was back in January!
