A:  It has a screen filter so it depends on what you put thru it.

A:  yes it is, it is dependent on your PSI for water flow.

A:  They yellow range control is heavyweight plastic and everything else is metal

A:  I doubt that its metal geared as the swing adjuster is also plastic, but what I can say is this model is much better built than all plastic ones.

A:  Looks ok and works well. I sure it does not last forever.

A:  I don't recommend it - the oscillating mechanism is plastic and mine doesn't work after only a year.

A:  IT IS UNFORTUNATELY MADE IN CHINA.

A:  Just tried mine for the 1st time today right out of the box and the oscillation does not work. Tried various water pressure to see if it was pressure related. Nothing. Getting returned.

A:  It depends on water pressure. I have about 58 psi at my house and my maximum spray width is about 50 feet. This sprinkler actually has a wider spray width that any other sprinkler i have had. Probably because of brass spray nozzles.

A:  I use this sprinkler for irrigating my lawn. When it is watering in an unobstructed area with about 40lbs of well water pressure, the spray pattern extends 10-14 ft on each side of the sprinkler when all sprinkler jets are open.

A:  This sprinkler can do the job, depending on how long your flowerbed is and what kind of water pressure you have. There are two adjustments for oscillation so you can set it to any type coverage you need. It can be set to cover from 80 degrees to 80 degrees and everything in between. I have good water pressure, when I turn it up it will cover approximately 30' from side to side give or take a little. Very handy sprinkler for big areas or small, you won`t be disappointed.

A:  The width of the spray pattern is governed by your available system pressure. You regulate that by how much you open the hose bib faucet.

A:  That sprinkler will water approximately 69 feet for the length and 58 feet wide.

A:  Mostly metal that I can see. A couple of parts may be made of other materials

A:  It’s good it waters the grass. I haven’t taken it apart to see what it’s made of but it works

A:  Try utilizing Home Depot's on line chat forum as those Pros have access to full product specifications.

A:  I am not really mechanically inclined but it is driven mainly by the flow of water through levers encased under the bottom. The only parts made of plastic seems to be the adjusting mechanism the handle for the water connection and another part at the end.
