Good Stuff!!!
We are new to the irrigation game but chose Railbird products because of their unarguable quality and reputation. It will be awhile until our install because we have a lot of logistics to do first in our garden. We have a large tropical garden that will require a lot of water and plan on installing everything on a wifi irrigation controller using all types of sprinkler heads. We look forward to our install with Rainbird products !!

Easy adjustments & swap in
How best to review a sprinkler head; easy to install, yes. Adjustments are easy to make, yes. Maintenance is easy, yes. Sprays water and gets my lawn wet, yes (when I turn the water on). So yes, this makes for a very easy and fast replacement spray nozzle if you are in the market. You have adjustments for how much of the circle (the inner black dial) and how far it sprays (by pulling the head up/down).

Excellent replacement head!
I have 8 zones with 6 sprinklers per zone so occasionally the heads need replacement. In this case I liked the idea of a farther reach head as this one throws up to 14 feet without any issues at all. Very easy to replace the old hed, just unscrew the old head and screw on this one. Don't forget to insert the included sand/dirt filter that comes in the bag.

My lawn
I purchased the Rain Bird 13 ft. to 18 ft. Full Circle Rotary Nozzle to replace the old one that didn't work anymore. I needed this distance, so I dint overspray into other lawns. I am pleased with the simple install and the nozzle works awesome. I put it to the test, and it sprays just like the description says. now I am going to replace all my nozzles with Rainbird products because they work great and are very well made.

Performance depends on water pressure
I don't have the best water pressure for my sprinklers and only see this range from 7 to 10 feet. I also find that hard water build up reduces the range and adjustability of the tool less controls for the range and arc. I suggest cleaning in vinegar each spring to keep them performing the best. I like the staggered rotating streams of water that this brand provides. as well as the tool less adjustments over others that I have used and highly recommend.

Rain Bird Quality and reasonably priced
I live in Florida and have a sprinkler system that covers my entire yard in 5 zones. I converted my old system about 2 years ago now when they installed a reclaimed water system in my neighborhood. My original system was installed back in 1996 and was badly in need of repair. So as needed I have been replacing my sprinkler nozzles and sprinkler units with Rain Bird units. I like the nice choice of sizes and patterns. In all cases so far, I have been able to find the proper sizes and patterns. I selected the Rain Bird 8’-14’ 360-degree nozzle for this area. Unit was easy to install and does a nice job of covering the area I needed covered.

Excellent high-efficiency adjustable, sprinkler head.
This is a Great high-efficiency sprinkler nozzle with easy adjustment and good readability. With adjustable angle of throw between 45° and 270°, this sprinkler head can throw single efficient streams of rotating water from 13 feet to 18 feet. Being a high efficiency or “water, saving“ sprinkler nozzle, this will save you an average of around 30% less water used per water cycle, while better targeting grass and not misting, losing all of that water to vaporization. It looks like it has a laser etched head with easy to read plus and minus symbols for telling you which way to turn for the angle of throw. This is unique in that you just push down on the head and rotate to increase or decrease the angle of throw. As you can see from the pictures, this should work with any standard rotating sprinkler head, including Hunter.

Better than conventional fan spray heads
I love these types of sprinkler heads as they greatly reduce the over spray from standard fan spray heads. The Rain Bird 17 ft. to 24 ft. Adjustable Pattern Rotary Sprinkler Nozzle, Blacks is a great replacement to conventional spray heads. No special tools are required to adjust the spray pattern or the spray distance. I was a little confused on the adjustments at first but after taking the head back off and playing with it before attaching it to the sprinkler. Works great and should help reduce water waste.

It will be used in our small front yard.

Easy Change
Swapping out rotary nozzles is easy for most people. The caps pull up and can be swapped. The distance that is covered by water is amazing. You can adjust the arc too so it soaks more in a condensed area. You do not need any adjustment tools for these nozzles. Simply use your hand to turn, tighten or loosen, to your desired pattern. You can also clear out debris while watering is happening.

Great Sprinkler head
The Rain Bird adjustable pattern rotary sprinkler is great for multiple uses. I have a rain bird irrigation system for my lawn and I always keep these rain bird adjustable sprinkler nozzles in my repair kit. These are very easy to replace and come with a Debris screen that keeps the head from clogging up with dirt. They are also very easy to adjust to just the right direction and distance for maximum coverage. Since the distance can be adjusted from 8 ft. to 14 ft. they can be used in different areas from your beds to the lawn edge.

These 45-270 degree nozzles are high quality, easy to install and give you more control.
We ordered the Rain Bird 14RNVAFPRO high efficiency rotary nozzle because of drought in our area in Texas. The water pressure gets low and our existing fan pattern nozzles no longer over lap leaving dead areas in our lawn. These rotary nozzles are high quality, easy to install and give you more control. The replacement of the fan nozzles just takes seconds. Just pry your pop up nozzle up with a screwdriver, grab the spray tube, unscrew and remove the fan nozzle with its old strainer then screw on the rotary nozzle. Adjustment directions are contently printed on the back of the bag. This specific nozzle gives 45-270 degrees of coverage and that is not printed on top of the nozzle but noted by it's green color..

Easy way to convert old heads
Rain Bird 17 ft to 24 ft Adjustable Rotary Pattern Nozzle These nozzles are a fast way to convert standard irrigation heads to the more efficient heads. They are easy to install and come with head and filter. They are easy to adjust. One big advantage I have noticed is the spray is not effected by wind like the standard spray head was. These advantages do come with a higher price but seem to be worth the cost.

Rain Bird 14’ high efficiency rotary nozzle
I don’t have a system in my yard, but sheriffs office is across the street where my son works and they do. So I will try it out on their system if it fits. Can spray 8’—14’ out and go 360 degrees ensuring an evenly grass watering effect. You just twist the up nozzle to get desired distance from 8-14 feet, and while running you can lift nozzle up to clean out and debris from mowing or weed whacking. I was assistant manager of maintenance on Maui 200 unit property, we used and fix sprinklers systems all the time from nozzles popping off to redoing sections at a time. We used these at our complex and had good usage out of them, of course we used a big Dimensions heads with refuge water but the own really liked this brand. So if connected to city water or your own well water you will enjoy these, they are water saving products so you can water for less money.

This is a High Efficiency Rotary Nozzle
The Rain Bird 24RNVAFPRO nozzle covers a distance from 17-24 feet with a 45 to 270 degree adjustable watering pattern. You can replace your current pop-up half and quarter pattern spray nozzles to start saving on water. It says you can save up to 30% over standard pop-up sprays. This has rotating streams with uniform coverage. So far I replaced two of mine and these new heads work fine. This is a half inch female thread, and it is adjustable and rotating. There are adjustments knob to change the distance of the spray and the variable arc, just by hand no tool is required. That is a great feature and it's easy to do. So far I like these rotary heads and would recommend to others.

Very easy to use
This Rainbird 17 to 24 foot adjustable sprinkler head is really easy to install and use. It doesn’t take as much pressure, so you can use even more of them on a line. I don't see as much water loss, which is good. Where it hits the pavement it doesn’t make such a big puddle as there used to be. These are also so much easier to adjust, simply turn the collar. No more fumbling around with a small screw driver. Cleaning is a breeze as well. No more need to take it all apart, just lift it up and it flushes out. I will eventually replace all the heads in my system.

Much easier to use!
These Rainbird sprinkler heads are easy to install and use. I have always used Rainbird sprinklers in my system. With these new sprinkler heads you don't lose as much water, and where it hits the pavement it doesnt make as much of a puddle as it used to. These heads are also a lot easier to adjust. Simply turn the ring. No more need of a tiny screw driver. And you no longer have to take them apart to clean them, simply lift the head and it will flush out. Very much easier, I will eventually replace all the heads in my system.

Great Water Saver
This Rainbird sprinkler nozzle attaches easily to the sprinkler body just like any other nozzle. The difference is that this type has a pinwheel type water flow and does the same job but uses 30% less water. Is is very easy to adjust the spray pattern and the distance. The coverage distance is based on the flow and does the same job but uses 30% less water. Is is very easy to adjust the spray pattern and the distance. The coverage distance is based on the particular product purchased. I am using one that penetrates up to 17 feet. By rotating the head, adjusting the spray pattern can't get any easier.

Another great High Efficient Irrigation Nozzle
These Rain Bird nozzles are the latest design in high efficiency water spray heads for irrigation systems. This model designed for 8 feet to 14 feet spray distance and can be adjusted to 45 degrees to 270 degrees area with NO TOOLs, which I really like. The water savings design will help both save water and irrigation costs, especially in hotter months in states like Florida. These nozzles also give very uniform grass coverage even in windy areas which also helps save water. Easy to replace existing nozzles with these as they can replace your pop up half and quarter pattern sprayers.

A system that is a water saving spray head and still deliver the water where you want it to maintain your yard. Easy to install in the 4 inch spray body. No digging up to replace. Just a pull of the shaft and hold it while removing the old one and install the new designed spray head. Turn on the water and adjust as needed. While it is on, slightly push down on the head to adjust the pattern required. Twist the head to set the direction. So easy.

Great concept, less clogging
These are great spinkler heads, I think they are much better then standard misting heads. In my opinion the misting heads are to susceptible to wind blowing the fine water droplets away. These larger droplets tend to stay on my grass and more water gets to the yard and does not run off. Make sure you have the male version of the threads on your spinkler cartridge. These are extremely easy to install and adjust. There is a white line that shows where the pattern will start and then simply turn the head to the arch that you need. No tools needed.

Nice Rotary Sprayer Head
This Rain Bird nozzle spray head is a well built unit. Rain Bird irrigation parts have been around for years. I've had them in two different sprinkler systems and this last system is over 20 years old. Occasionally due to dirt getting into the heads I have to replace a head but overall the Rain Bird unit last a long long time. With the rotary nozzle I get a good even coverage and keep a healthy lawn.
