Anyway, out of the six, this nozzle is hands down the best! Nice heft and sturdy feel, thumb drive adjusts smoothly, but isn't a pushover, so if you want it half blast, it stays there. The best part though, and the reason for rejecting all the others, is that this nozzle has a true center flow option. It's a strong stream that reaches about twenty feet and makes watering at a distance off the deck very easy. That center flow allows me to water specific plants and pots with precision. All the others had a useless pattern that start in the center and fan outwards so that they water a perfect circle around what you're aiming at, while your target stays dry. Inexplicably dumb design. The other selector sprays are great, too, but the centre function is really a deal breaker for me, and this one is perfection!

I have thrown away numerous plastic hose nozels that usually came with the hose. They all dripped, leaked and squirted in odd directions eventually. One of my primary complaints of plastic nozels is eventually they fail to shut off cleanly. This nozel feels solid, and worked without dripping or drizzling the first time. The valve is smooth and the whole nozel just feels good to use. Nice tool.

EASY FIVE STARS before even using it! It feels really heavy duty and to my great surprise, when I opened the package, by registering it, I got an extended 5 year warranty….FIVE YEARS! I love the way you can push the lever forward to lock it on. I’m so sick of having to replace my hose nozzles. I think this one is going to be worth the extra $$$ in the long run.
