Q:Does the pressure adjust based on how hard you squeeze the lever?
by|Jun 12, 2023

Answer This Question

A:  Yes.

by|Jun 13, 2023

    A:  Pressure is based on the setting. The nozzle has adjustable settings from a shower type spray to a more forceful spray.  7-8 spray patterns. I don’t have the nozzle in front of me. Great nozzle. I would purchase again!

                  Decent Product for the price
                  I’ve used this nozzle twice now in the last 4-5 years. So lasted me able 2 years or so. I wash my cars a lot and water garden everyday. Eventually the handle gets stuck in position and doesn’t allow water flow to stop. I think getting 2-3 years out of it is worth 12 bucks. Just my opinion.

                    Good for 1 summer……
                    Purchased this last summer as a replacement for a cheaper spray nozzle. Worked great last summer but when I went to use it this week the nozzle wouldn’t shut off and it leaked all down my hand while using. Had to go to the hose bib and shut off the water to get it to stop. Disappointed to say the least. I don’t mind paying for quality but this isn’t it. Can’t give this spray nozzle my approval.

                      Leaks after 1 year
                      Similar to others, I used this item for one summer. Took it out this spring and it's leaking from inside the nozzle dial. Constant stream drips from the dial (and down the handle, on to me) whether I am holding the handle down or not. Poor quality but worked well in year 1.

                              dont get it
                              Had it for probably 2 months. The connected corroded and i couldn’t detach it from my hose. The bottom was peeling apart as well. Save yourself aggravation and get something else.

                                Spring of 2020 purchase, leaked after 90days ...don't waste your money buy a solid brass watering nozzle and be done with it. We purchased the PRO model, worse than this one...leaked in 30 days

                                  Purchased and the handle broke within a year. As a engineer I would be embarrassed to have designed this product. I bought an Orbit brand two years ago with no issues

                                    Easy to assemble. Works as expected. Very easy to change the setting from shower to mist. Has a rear trigger so that you dont have to hold down the lever during extended use. Recommend highly.
