Customer Reviews for Little Big Shot Fully Adjustable Super Hose Nozzle

Waste of $10 … almost immediately start shootings a light mist and the green seal comes loose. Please don’t waste your money

I also love the fact that is made in the USA by disable veterans

I really hate to write a negative review, but I purchased and exchanged 3 of these and all of them leaked with in a few days. I even installed an inline RV regulator to 40 psi. In all fairness this may not be made to wash items, but only watering gardens? The quality build is excellent and works perfect in small/tight locations for cleaning our equipment, other than the leaking, it performs perfect while in use. You just you can't stop at all when washing stuff, turning off the main faucet to grab a drink or take a break seems impractical.

After a week, bearings gone and it's locked in the off position.

Weak point is a small piece of surgical tubing and 3 steel ball bearings. This is a toy squirt gun for a water hose.

Noticed 1 ball had dissapeared, so i looked for it around my garden and the downspouts, and while I was looking for the balls I was tightening and loosening it, when i gave up, the other 2 balls and the green sleeve was gone

It met all my expectations except it doesn't completely shut off. We have fairly good water pressure here so maybe it wont be a problem in other areas. If it shut off completely, I would give it at least 4 stars. I have a pressure washer and this is adequate for jobs where I don't want to pull it out. There are times you cant have water shooting out even if it is just a light pin-point stray. It has a nice firm spray for cleaning siding and moving dirt from the driveway. As its 3 days old I don't know how well it will stand up but I plan to keep it for a while. Just beware of what you may be getting.

I've been looking for a hose nozzle that won't leak after a month or two, and not having much luck. Spotted this one and bought it last weekend. It's a clever design, one flexible part replaces both the hose washer and inner workings (i.e. shutoff seals etc.) The flow is stopped by rotating ball bearings that are driven along a conical surface, just move them inwards against the inner flexible part and presto the water flow is constricted and eventually stops. Cool! The bad news is we used it for one week, and it immediately became apparent that the rotating mechanism tends to jam at the extreme positions. This morning my wife called me out to look at it and much to my chagrin 2 of the 3 ball bearings were missing - somehow they dropped out of the nozzle and it's now useless. Too bad that these small details were not caught early in the product design and testing phase and IMO they could have easily been eliminated. My advice is to avoid this product (hence my 1 Star rating), and hope that the manufacturer comes out with an updated design which eliminates these serious flaws.

Already recommended this nozzle to my Father. I Love the way it works, I have a huge backyard and watering the lawn with this is a breeze. I don’t think anyone would be disappointed. And to top it off, it’s made in the U. S. A. And to me that’s a BIG DEAL.

Bought it yesterday used it liked it shut it off it leaked a very fine stream of water all night when I got up and noticed it was leaking I twisted it even more it locked close but still leaking and will not open back up used 2 pair of pliers after removing it from hose .The inside turns so there is no way to open it back up don't know if it is just defective or poor quality

Excellent

It’ll never replace a pressure washer, but this is much stronger than a garden hose. Very well made, and inexpensive. Diverse adjustment. Interesting pin-point spray function too.. not sure when that would be useful for. It’s a bit annoying to have to remove this from the hose every single time.

after a couple seasons the ball beatings have fallen out. Now its worthless

This is amazing little big shot! I plan on buying another one for the backyard as well. Plus this is made by veterans! I would recommend this product to anyone.....This Product could be used for anything outside, cleaning your gutters, I water my lawn with it.

Little Big Shot enthusiasts point out that the nozzle is good for focusing a stream of water, not shutting it off. It looks cool, but I didn't anticipate that limitation. I would not have bought it knowing that shutting off flow entirely is not possible. One reviewer even recommended adding an in-line ball valve to completely control flow. I intended to wash my car and didn't expect to go back and forth to the faucet valve between spraying and scrubbing. I got 1/2 way through my first car wash and two of the three ball bearings exited the housing.

I like this little guy, it's perfect

Super easy to use. Turning the nozzle to stream it goes out 50'. Gives a nice wide spray, to a super fine stream. I can water my pots and my yard without changing the sprayer. I love it so much I bought a second one for the back yard.

The green thing broke already. Ball bearings fell out. Did not use the recommend part. I liked how it worked but I wouldn't say I wouldn't recommend it. And yet I couldn't say yes.

I attached ut to hose to try out the different water strokes. It does save water and it is powerful but when i closed nozzle all the way still leaked water, so i saw why; the rubber water stopping gasket pushes up and kicked out washers in the middle. It us not a good design and wont last. Mine lasted 2 minutes testing. I am returning what a shame i wanted this USA made product to be a quality product....

Works great! It really surprised me with the range of spray and pressure it offered. I wasn't expecting it.

It broke in 10 days. Nozzle is not smooth to turn on & off , when I tried hard to turn on, washer broke & it started leaking, going to return now for a better replacement.

Works good but not as good as advertised. The main complaint is that it leaks. We always store it in the open position as recommended. For the first few times it did not leak but after about 2 months of sitting in my shop and only about 6 uses you can not stop the water from streaming out of the end.

this is the best water hose nozzle I have owned. I have a standard one story home and the water reaches the highest peak with good power. It is not recommended to use near your plants but for watering the lawn, the water would reach a good distance. It is also great to use when washing your car.

https://youtu.be/HJdUL-DV4XU For the price, you cannot beat the Little Big Shot! It is indeed a SUPER NOZZLE! Delivers enough pressure, depends on your household, and USE less water, about 40%. All around garden hose spray nozzle LITTLE BIG SHOT and cleaning your wheels brake dust with SIMPLE GREEN, Great Combo!

Bought my first one more than five years ago and it's still going strong -- despite wintering outside and me forgetting (more than once) to leave it in the open position when turned off. It's not fancy, and if you're looking for something like a soaker head or wide spray for delicate plants, you can probably do better, but if you just need a reliable nozzle for cleaning gutters and siding, washing the car, watering the lawn and garden, etc., you can't do better than this. I paired it with an ultra-light hose, and it's fantastic -- light and convenient, and easy to open and close, with no leaks. As a bonus, my kids love the fact that you can dial it down to a pinpoint spray, and they use it to "write" on the sidewalk -- and squirt each other. As another bonus, it's made in the USA by disabled vets. I like it so much I just got another one for the front yard. Five stars.

I am impressed with the quality of materials and construction of the Super Nozzle. The stream is quickly adjusted by machined brass ring that runs on ball bearings. I am pleased with the ease of adjustment of the stream. Setting the stream for maximum strength and focus requires a little practice, since the adjustment ring is so easy to turn.

As it's time to wash my home's siding and exterior painted surfaces to remove the grime, mold, & mildew, I decided to try this as an alternative to my pressure washer - it worked great (before & after photos) and the pressure washer is now relegated to concrete surfaces only. Note that I'm on a private well for water and working pressure is typically 1/3 to 1/2 less than that of a city supplied system - in other words, results may vary. What I liked: 1) It is powerful enough for me to stand on the ground and deliver a cleansing stream of water to the peak of the 2nd story 2) For watering plants, I could stand 30 feet away and deliver a good stream of water to specific plants 3) It's compact design allows for a more neutral wrist position than pistol type nozzles, reducing stress 4) It supports disabled veterans I would recommend this product.

Talk about power in a small package. This nozzle is a dynamo. First off its made by disabled veterans in america, it is made to last and take a beating. The simple turn adjustments make it easy to use. It gives you positive control right where you need it. The pin point spray will take the paint off a wooden post that needs painting. Power to spare. I used it to clean gutters and what a cleaning it did. I sprayed debris all over the side of the house it was so powerful it Cleaned the gutters with ease. Then I turned it down a bit and cleaned the side of the house. Now my house is clean and the gutters are cleaned out. IT is a great little nozzle, For the price it cant be beat. Simple operation but powerful results.

The sprayer is powerful but can not close it enough to shut the water completely off. When it is closed it still has a small stream of water coming out.
