Editorial Reviews
From the Manufacturer
The Adjustable Hose Nozzle is great for cleaning walkways, patios decks and more. Multiple spray patterns and flow volume are at your fingertips. Twist the barrel to adjust the water pattern from a fine, cone-shaped spray to a powerful stream. Twist the barrel back and the water is off. Look for Dramm’s full line of hose and hose end accessories also available on Amazon.com.

Found It! What I think is the BEST Brass Hose Nozzle under $10.
By mbw
I've had them all, cheap ($5) nozzles and an expensive ($90) nozzle (Griot's Garage). Given I've had the expensive nozzle for over 10 years now without a hicup lends strength to the adage; 'you get what you pay for'. But who in their right mind would pay $90 for a hose nozzle? Well, I did once but the good news now is that this $10 nozzle is the best I've ever used in this price range and unlike others in this price range, should last virtually forever (because there are no inherent design flaws). Others have raved about the Gilmour nozzle and so I bought one only to find out that it breaks. Turns out it is made from three pieces of brass, two of which are press fit together; the inner core and the part that screws onto the end of the hose. The outer jacket, the part that is supposed to turn to adjust the spray is the third piece. When you torque the outer jacket down to shut off the flow, stress is induced on the press fit joint which eventually fails. The press fit joint is now so loose, that I can't turn the outer jacket to adjust the flow without the core spinning at the joint. That is, the core begins to turn and it leaks at the place where the two pieces are press fit together. Worse yet, I can't turn the jacket to shut off the flow. Only took 4 months of light use to happen.
THIS nozzle is only two metal pieces! The outer jacket, that turns to adjust the spray and shut off the flow, and the inner core which is one piece of machined brass all the way from the part that screws on to the hose to the center tip of the nozzle. Internally there are a couple of replaceable 'O' rings in addition to the requisite washer where the nozzle screws onto the hose end. The spray pattern is typical from wide mist to hard stream.
Brass is soft, relatively speaking and I do not recommend leaving this nozzle outside in a presurized state after the outside temp falls below freezing. (to help you appreciate the $90 nozzle, you could leave that thing anywhere, anytime of the year, and even bury it, only to dig it up and find that it works like new. Combined with a good hose you could even leave the whole set up outside year round and forget about it. Which I've done for over ten years. Come spring thaw, it would be right as rain.)
Gilmour makes some great products, like their Flexogen hose, but I'll stick to Dramm for the brass fittings.

Nicely made - should last a long time
By Jeffrey D. Hansen
Bought two to replace a couple of pistol grip style nozzles with selectable heads that crapped out. This is very solidly made. Two brass parts and a couple of easily replaceable o-rings. Should last a very long time. Nice jet spray for washing the car or cleaning driveway.

Best Nozzle out of the dozen I purchased before this one
By CPHope
This is a great nozzle. Solid heavy Brass, nice knurled portions for easy turning, no leaks and made in the USA. Very happy with this for watering our garden and flowers.
We purchased about a dozen nozzles over the last five years and have been unhappy with all of them due to leaks, falling off rubber parts..., but we are very happy with this one. I am purchasing a second one for the front of our house.
