does what it advertises, sadly, the orbit site is VERY limited with what you can purchase after however. The "B-hyve" kit works fine, and included the hub, but both was the GEN 1. There is no way to opt in for a different option. Sadly, the other issue I ran into was once I got the kit installed and working, I wanted more, I bought a B-hyve XD 4 port, but also had to buy the GEN 2 hub (piece meal) from home depot. Now after having this kit, I knew what I needed for components, and the big box stores (Lowes, Home Depot) has Orbit supplies, but its VERY hard to piece together what you need, Most hose parts look just like the "blu-lock" components, but are NOT. They are the "drip lock" group, so I ended up needing to buy the pipe, and each piece separately. (blu-lock and drip lock are slightly different sizes and are not compatible) The main reason for that is even the Orbit amazon site took a week or two to ship ANYTHING, so I did what I had to to get what I wanted. No, its not a "professional" in ground sprinkler system, but its not bad. again, my issue with Orbit is no way to get what you need (for instance, try looking for blu-lock ends or connectors on their site). the web page doesnt show any, but you can search and find it on amazon, but again, takes WAY too long to get it shipped. (and seems MUCH more expensive this way).
