VIKING Hose Nozzle, Garden Hose Nozzle with 8 Spray Patterns, Adjustable and Heavy Duty for Washing Car, Watering Plants, Washing Pets, and Home Use

I had a very similar one when we bought our camper. I didn’t think to drain it for winterization so it cracked when it froze over winter. This one was a great replacement. I would buy again if I needed to.

It's a sprayer, does what it's suppose to do. Time will tell as far as quality: GOOD- simple design with multiple spray patterns BAD- Throw away rubber washers it comes with. Cheap material and not correct outside diameter to seal properly. Mine leaked right away. Replaced with better quality washer and no leaks.

Update: purchased a second set which didn’t last more than a year. I will be moving on from this item and try and did something more sturdier. They fail where the handle meets the metal. The handle just simply wears out I purchased 2 of these about 4 years ago. The first one I misplaced after 3 years the second one broke and it was my fault. But after 4 years I can’t complain. Thing to note this product is plastic. That means if you want to throw your nozzle around then this is not for you. Some people do it without thinking but you can’t blame the product because you knew you were buying plastic. My last one broke after 4 years because I had something else in my hand and I dropped it by mistake and it broke to the point I can’t cut it off. Secondly the first thing you should do is buy commercial gasket for the bottom of the nozzle. No nozzle you buy that is cheap will have the nice thick gasket so it doesn’t leak where the hose meets the nozzle. They cost a few cents so invest in a few. Not once did my nozzles leak the whole time I had them (which was a lot with 4 cars being washed every Saturday). I will purchase 2 more to replace the ones I had hopefully the quality is the same and I will have these for another 4 years. *Update: the replacements I purchased for some reason did not last as long as my originals. I had one go bad at the on/off point. Had them for almost 2 years and the one that went bad is the one I have in the back yard which doesn’t get used as much. I am taking one star away for that purpose. Other than that these are great for a $9 price tag.

I live in a hard water area and end up replacing my hose nozzles at least once a year. The price was what drew me to these but when I got them the quality was an awesome bonus. I used it a whole season and it still looks new. Much better than the all plastic cheapies. Great value for the money

This new nozzle works great on our old hose, great job for the price. My husband said he’d recommend it,

With the multiple settings, this is fabulous for so many different things..,, - washing the car, watering the plants, even filling up the pool…. etc etc LOv it & recommend it!

You get what you pay for in this case from my experience. The sprayer works great with the multiple spray options. The handle and spray area was what I was looking for so if it wasn't for the major issue that I had I experienced I would have probably rated it higher. In my case after a few weeks of using it, I noticed that water started to leak out from the sides of the top part of the nozzle sprayer head where you turn it to select the multiple spray heads you want to use. This rendered the spray nozzle useless regardless of selecting a different type of spray. So I had nothing to loose except to try to open the nozzle to find out what was going on. There is a screw in the center of the spray head that if you remove it you will see a rubber washer in the center of the nozzle and in my case it came loose - probably from the multiple use of the spray head selection or maybe dropping the spray head on the ground too many times? Simple fix was to put it back in the center enclave and screw the head back on and I was back with a working nozzle. Unfortunately, this same problem started to repeat itself more often. I don't know if it was because of the multiple drops to the ground, but I did notice that if that did occur, I would have to repeat the above steps. So much for heavy duty spray nozzle. I don't know too many people who gently place their nozzle on the ground every time and its not like I am slamming it to the ground either. Just your simple run of the mill daily use. On top of that I had the nozzle spray head jam up from turning it quite often which was the result of the rubber washer coming loose. I don't know if I had a defective nozzle or wasn't gentle with the sprayer nozzle and this was the result. Bottom line is that the rubber washer was the center of my problem so to speak and eventually it got warped from jamming up where it no longer stayed in place. Needless to say, I purchased another "Heavy Duty" nozzle sprayer without changing my watering habits and haven't experienced the same issues that I had with this sprayer. I guess your mileage will vary with this product.

I was looking for a powerful hose for watering and washing down the patio, but this was not it - it leaks a lot. I was disappointed. I don’t use it anymore. Probably gonna sell it at a garage sale.

recivido: 12:45 p.m. de 21/05/2019, perfectas condiciones, para el jardin, para quienes nunca han usado una pistola de agua, es normar que, incluso con el poco uso empieze a gotear, la presion del agua en los empaques, de manera permanente, y giros, los suavisa, (no estan cerrados al vacio), si vas a mantener abierto, el flujo de agua las 24 horas, el empaque se cristalizara por las sales del agua, ocacionando el efecto, con el tiempo de uso, sucedera de igual forma ( tratar de vaciar la manguera y mantener la pistola a la sombra ), gracias por pronto envio. actl. 14/06/2019 excelente.

I love this nozzle. One flip of the control with my thumb and the water is on or off. No more gripping a handle to keep the water flowing. I have carpal tunnel syndrome and this nozzle makes watering much less painful for me. The Full setting is great for filling watering cans, and I use Shower for watering flower beds.

Producto llego a tiempo.

Lo único que se me complicó fue la instalación ya que no viene la especificación técnica de la cuerda, y el cople que necesitaba, en México se tiene otro estándar común de ancho de cuerda, lo que implicó usar cinta de teflón para evitar fugas, salvo por eso sirve muy bien

I had something similar to this design before but after awhile water started to leak from the handle. This feels much more sturdy and ‘substantial’ In workmanship and material.
