Ascot Garden Hose Nozzle Holder, Yellow Steel Constructed Easy Sprinkler

I have had this nozzle holder for a month now. Here are my observations...- The base prong is "blunt" and therefore hard to insert in the ground. If you try to step on it, it will bend. This base tip should be "pointy" to facilitate the lodging effort in the ground.- If you ARE able to insert it in the ground, this device will spin in place or it will slant with the weight of the hose. It is a frustrating job to accommodate it just right to irrigate an area. It should have a pointy fork-like prong at the base such that it will easily stay "set" in place.- The nozzle holder section is too small for any one of my two hose nozzles. Therefore I have to set the nozzle to "lie on top" of this section and wrap it with Velcro to tie it down. Very inconvenient!- The yellow coating chipped off in three locations in just two weeks.This product is clearly designed to accommodate a low manufacturing, packaging, and shipping cost. Certainly not worth the $29.99 price.

I guess my ground is too soft. It won't stay in place with water pressure on.

To hold the hose while watering the garden

Designed by somebody who is not a gardener and who doesn't understand what this implement is supposed to do. It is supposed to hold a hose. It doesn't come close. It is too flimsy to hold a hose and the foot that sticks in the ground is too short to provide the required stability. Moreover the price is outrageous. I had a fine version of this tool years ago. It used a spring loaded clip at the top to hold thehose. This, with its "pretty" twists, can't simply can't do the job. An oUtrageous price for something that doesn't work
