Yes, We had one and we changed it out to a Hunter after two years. The Acclima's controller software program seemed more complicated than it needed to be. It was a good controller, but it felt like a job to troubleshoot it every time my lawn looked bad. One time I had it running two programs and I did not know what was going on until my neighbor kept telling me my sprinklers was running every other day.

I was lucky to have the water sensor on my Acclima fail just before the warrantee expired. It was replaced by a Hunter at no charge. Now I can reprogram/adjust the system without constantly reviewing the owners manual. Acclima was way too complicated.

I have one.They are complicated & it took me a while to learn how to program it but once I did I've had no problems with it.

Yes a lot of people have had problems with them. My friend hated his and had a company in the Villages service directory replace it with a wireless rain sensor
