A tick means one listing published something the other did not, or published a better figure. It does not mean the product is better, and the column is not a score out of anything: a maker who says less loses lines here without losing a comparison. The two verdicts below are where the page is settled.
Prefer the Orbit for a much longer warranty.
Prefer the RainPoint for its rating and rain delay options.
