Anyone used one of these watering systems before?

Hi, everybody I'm going away a couple of times over the summer and obviously need to water my greenhouse and pots.I came across this watering system with timer. Just wondering if anybody has used one or can recomend something similar.

I've invested in a complete automated watering system for my garden two years ago, I wont water anything other than this way with a true drip irrigation system. I bought mine from dripworksusa.com it works very very well. I always used to water out of a can then one year I went to this drip system, the root structure from one vs the other is night and day comparison. Spring for the drip irrigation system and a controller you can set to water at a certain time each day and however many times a day you would like.

With using a drip irrigation system the other benefit is you can use a in-line liquid fertilizer system to fertilize your garden while your watering. This works out great for liquid organic fertilizers you can feed into the watering line.
