EARTHBRAND Solid Metal Garden Hose Spray Nozzle/Hand Sprayer | 7 Spray Patterns, Adjustable Pressure, Soft Rubber Pistol Grip

Ok, I'm not a person who writes reviews, much less gives a product a 5 star review. Over the past 3 summers, I have purchased at least two hose nozzle's a year. My kids would drop it on the sidewalk and they would break, or the cheap plastic that pulls the valve on the sprayer would break. I purchased this one on the hopes it would maybe last an entire summer. And seeing now how well it's built, should have no problem lasting for many many years. Fantastic build quality, and spray quality. Adjustment on the end for controlling the water flow works great as well. Stop buying the cheap nozzle's and get this one!

The soaker feature directs flow towards the handle and not straight out from the nozzle. It works fine if you are going to lay the nozzle in a garden bed and walk away, but it is annoying if you want to direct the water flow as when watering potted plants.

It's all expensive sprayer - had a great mist setting. We used ours in an interior greenhouse. It suffered metal fatigue and broke.

Too late in the watering season to know if this nozzle will be a "five star" performer, but in the brief time I've used it I'm very impressed. It resembles another pistol grip sprayer but is head and shoulders above it quality wise as one can see once it's been used.

The metal hollow tube burnished on the underside of the body is not durable nor sturdy enough. This was The thickness of this hollow tube is too thin. It was almost as if it was deliberately designed this way. They have got to know that this is an area experiences considerable and continuous stress during use. Not happy.

I like the fact that the trigger is metal, as that's usually the part that breaks on these. The nozzle started dripping all over the place when you're using it, right out of the stream selector. Seems like a faulty gasket on the inside. Would be a nice hose if it didn't drip all over me when I squeeze the trigger. Maybe I just got a bad one in the batch.

I seem to go through hose nozzles every year. I read some very positive reviews about this one on Amazon and decided to try it. It went on my hose without a problem (some are hard to screw on) and I didn't need to add any washers to keep it from leaking or spraying all over me. It is very lightweight, I was surprised. The first one worked so well that I purchased a 2nd one for my other hose.

I bought this item 10/15/15 and was initially very pleased with the quality. Six months later the nozzle started leaking...Earthbrand promptly offered to replace the item. I am impressed with the level of customer service I received.
