    Big gel nozzle
    I'm actually quite impressed. I didn't expect this to be so 'significant' - It has some size and heft to it unlike other nozzles we've had in the past. The text for the spray patterns in also recessed which is great, that's usually the first thing to wear off, so hopefully this adds to the longevity. The rubber grip is nice and keep things from feeling too slippery. I wish I could get this design in a metal body and head, the heat here always kills the plastic, but hopefully the extra material will help.

    Cleaning Power Nozzle
    The Vortex nozzle provides two clean modes, selectable with a quick twist of the tip. If you need a lot of stream pressure at a concentrated point, use the jet setting. If you need to distribute the stream across a larger area, select the vortex setting. The nozzle works great for cleaning decking. An unexpected use for the vortex setting was cleaning my spa filter cartridge. To clean it, you need to have a strong stream to clean out the pleats in the filter. With a conventional nozzle, I needed to run a single stream down each pleat of the filter. With the vortex mode, I can clean 8 or 10 pleats in one swipe…a lot less work! The handle lock lever is a little too easy to set. I accidentally turn it on a couple of times a day. A minor annoyance. Overall, a great nozzle.

    Perfect Shower Setting for Gardens, Even With High Water Pressure. Comfort Grip isn't too Hot or Cold
    My new favorite hose nozzle! I didn’t think I cared so much, but the thumb lever works so easily, and combine it with the perfect shower setting (and we’re at 80 psi!) and soft grip that doesn’t get burning hot or freezing cold like a typical metal handle, and this is an absolute winner. The gel touch is actually comfortable, but I care more about the handle temp here in Phoenix, AZ. Usually we have to leave our hose nozzle open so that we can turn on the hose, let it run for a minute to get the hot water out of the hose and to start cooling off the brass nozzle. Now, we can simply pick this extra-strudy metal nozzle up because it has gel grip on the outside. I have no idea how long the rubber gel grips will last, but it’s comfortable and safe. The swivel head is cool–flashlight style like my old brass nozzle make it easy to water down low right by a specific plant, and I can swivel on the fly to pistol style if wanted. The shower spray setting is my favorite feature. Our city water runs with a lot of pressure. We turned it down to 80 psi, but that is still a lot of pressure (typical homes with a lot of water pressure are 70 psi). This nozzle makes a perfect shower, with the pressure stepped WAAAY down, and the cone shape of the shower means I can water right over the top of a young plant and water all the way around it at the same time, which eliminates “digging” while watering. This is a really fantastic nozzle, especially for gardeners.

    Excellent heavy duty nozzle
    This is a high quality hose nozzle. It has easy to use throttle lever for good control of the water stream, and it has an excellent view of the setting on the end of the nozzle. The handle is padded with a gel like material which makes it easy on your hands if you are doing extensive watering. The actual device is mostly metal with plastic controls. It is very heavy construction and really should last a long time. I am very happy with it and highly recommend it to anyone who is serious about plant care.

    Versatile and well designed nozzle
    I love this spray nozzle. The head pivots so you can use it like a spray wand or like a traditional angled nozzle. The various spray patterns work the same regardless of the position of the head. There are markings near the spray control that let you know which way to move the lever to turn on the water or control the flow. I really like the little window that shows you the spray pattern you have selected. Water pressure is excellent and there were no leaks where my hose connected to the nozzle. The Gel material on the nozzle handle is more comfortable than most other nozzles, but otherwise it doesn't make any difference in the use of the nozzle.

    Melnor 7 Pattern Gel Nozzle
    Here we have the Melnor 7 patter gel nozzle. This is a nice looking nozzle with a bit of heft and size to it. The flow is as expected and the grip is comfortable. The spray patterns are all useful. The Jet setting is nice and powerful. Although the diameter of your hose will determint the amount of pressure for any of the settings. A smaller diameter hose will actually have higher pressure. I highly recommend this high quality hose by Melnor!

    Good hose nozzle
    This is a cool little hose bib. Its mostly metal construction with grippy silicone on the handle. The nozzle turns easy and dosen't leak. The whole thing is less than a foot long and the flow valve is easy to work with one hand. It will be interesting to see how the silicone weathers but i will say it seems to be well made and should hold up for several seasons.

    7 Pattern Gel Nozzle
    Over the years I have purchased many nozzles for watering my plants outside. They all seem to have had a lifespan of a year or two at tops. A lot of them had plastic arts on them which broke. This Melnor Relax grip nozzle is made of Aluminum with a Gel covered handle. You have the capability of using it as a regular nozzle grip or a straight design. It has 7 different patterns for watering or cleaning around your house.

    Nice Hand Held Nozzle
    The hand held nozzle handle has a nice texture that feels nice in your hand. The sprayer has seven nozzle positions that can be adjusted with a turn of the head and it has two windows to see the patterns on the top and bottom. The sprayer has great pressure since it has no water saver vales built in but I did add a screen at the hose connection because I have hard water and I don't want the head to fill up with rust. I like the firehose water flow valve which makes it easy to control the water flow.
