Orbit58611N Front Trigger 10 Pattern Turret Nozzle with Ergonomic Grip

Having the trigger in the front of the handle eliminates surprise squirts in the face when you lay the hose down.

I actually don't care to use any of the half-dozen or so other nozzles I have accumulated over the years after using this nozzle. I've tossed most of the old ones and ordered more of these to replace them.This nozzle is easy to use, has a nice (although rarely used) trigger lock feature that keeps you from having to hold the trigger when doing a lot of watering. The "jet" setting is powerful enough to clean the bottom of the mower deck in a reasonable amount of time, and then easily changes to the "shower" pattern to rinse myself off afterwards. Also good for washing the dog without hurting him accidentally with a strong stream.Seems like other nozzles don't last more than a year or two, so we'll see how durable these are over time. They seem pretty tough.

I've owned two Orbit Signature Series hose nozzles for about 5 years, and after almost daily use they finally needed replacement. They still worked fine, but switching between spray patterns was getting difficult. I think these are great nozzles - the spray patterns meet any need, from strong jet to gentle sprinkle. They are easy to operate with just a squeeze of the forefinger, and they have an easily operated lock so you don't have to keep gripping the trigger to keep the water flowing. They are light and easy to hold, the best I've ever used.

We do a lot of hand-watering here in Texas, especially during the summer. I love these Orbit Signature Series 10-Pattern nozzles for the ease of use, but have to give them a 4-star rating because I've already had to replace 2 during the warranty period. Not that replacement is made difficult by the manufacturer, mind, because a single phone call to Orbit results in their shipping me out a new one. Still, when a nozzle leaks from its trigger and gets my pants wet while watering the tomatoes, I'm not 100% happy. With that single caveat, recommended.

Works well but cannot be serviced.

I would give it a 5 star, but the only negative comment is that it MUST be removed in the winter, as the metal will bond with the threads of the hose, making removal almost impossible without using two vice grips!

I love the ease of changing spray types and the hold on function.

I have several of these and am very satisfied with them. I can’t attest to their longevity yet, but my hopes are they will last!

This nozzle was good for just 1 summer season. This summer there was a problem. You click the lock off and turn off the hose but when you turn the water on again it seems the lock is stuck and the trigger is on and the water starts immediately. It does this every time now.

Works well.

No matter what I do, this thing leaks almost as much water as it sprays through its nozzle. Even when the tap is off and I relieve pressure in the hose by spraying out what's left after I've shut it off, it continually drips any amount of water that's left in the hose. I water my plants every morning and coil up the hose, and then this thing drips water all day and all night.
