I know Rachio is a lot more expensive. I bought the B-Hyve 4 station controller at Lowes for about $60 with my military discount and very happy with it. Easy to set timers and it automatically shuts off when rain or frost is in the forecast. Has a lot of other features like smart watering that I don't use. Wish I had replaced the Hunter controller a long time ago.
