ikris Garden Hose Nozzle 9-Pattern Metal Sprayer with Rubberized ComfortGrip

In search of a good quality nozzle? This is the one for you! I've only had it a few days but I've used the heck out of it already. Super fine mist: great for new seedlings, shower mode is awesome for general garden watering, rinse is your jet feature and is is a strong direct spray! I used this feature to wash off my brick walkways that were covered in mossy funk. It was almost as good as using a pressure washer. I've played with some of the other settings and all were good but I figured these, to me anyway, were the most critical. The nozzle is sturdy and solid but not cumbersome by any means. The handle grip is comfortable and the velocity dial makes it super easy to get exactly the right amount of water for the job. This is the third nozzle I've purchased this year. The other two leaked from the head or the hose attachment area. This nozzle does not leak a drop! The other two nozzles are in the garbage waiting for their ride to the county dump! I will be purchasing another ikris nozzle very soon for another hose.

My husband was really exited after 0urchase of this product. He liked how powerful it was, while I thought it's overpriced, as I bought perfectly working sprayer from family dollar for half the price for the other side of the house. Well, few days ago we woke up to a huge paddle of water in the corner of our house. Reason - there was a tiny ding in the sprayer which caused water to run all night long on siding of our house. Wonder how our water bill will look like next month. Evening before that we were watering flowers with a hose, nobody recalls throwing it too hard, so we blame our 2 years old for maybe dropping it on the gravel driveway (still, falling from like 1 ft height shouldn't make a hoke in it). So now I have to use my finger to control water stream from the hose when I'm watering my lawn and flower beds. Had it for a month or two

This squeeze grip design is definitely the way to go. My previous spray nozzles have been horizontal ones where you had to use your second hand to turn something to start and stop the water flow. Somehow you always ended up with wet hands and water going wrong places. With this grip you just squeeze or release. I use the shower setting mostly, gives a nice full soaking. I first bought one, tried it out and immediately ordered a second one for the back yard hose. Seems to be very sturdy and strongly built. Twists on to the hose end easily and securely.

So far this has worked great! I use it at least once a day for spraying something off the patio or my dog's paws. I love the variety of patterns and it doesn't leak. I dropped it on the cement once and it's still working well.

Worked well for the first few months. Used it almost daily. Something broke or got clogged in it and I've lost almost all water pressure through it. I removed the nozzle and put on an old one and it worked fine. Put this one back on and now water just shoots out of it without even pressing the handle and the screw isn't tightened on it to where it presses the handle in. The water pressure is still messed up on it. Doesn't seem like the quality is there.

Seems very well made and works very smooth with no leaks or drips. Nice heavy weight and even patterns. Time will tell how well it holds up...but so far it's one of the best nozzles I've purchased for the $.

This is the second Ikris garden hose nozzle I purchased. I love them. I am an avid gardener but have some arthritis in my hands. These nozzles make the work easy--love that I can set it on and not have to press constantly. I also like the different settings so that I can use a jet of water to clean backyard furniture, mist to lightly care for my potted plants, shower for most plants, and a stronger stream for under bushes. I've had one of these since last year and just purchased another one for the other hose. Unlike another brand, this one hasn't leaked. It's the kind of simple tool that makes your life easier.

I haven't used mine for long, but so far the product seems durable and well put together. The three star review is because it claims to have 9 patterns, but I've only found 4-5 of the settings that are usable (two of which are an angle setting, just one is horizontal and one is at a 45 degree-ish angle). With exception of the jet setting, the flow rate/water pressure seems low compared to the water pressure without the nozzle. Though I've used the nozzle for some tasks, for other tasks I found it easier to take the nozzle off and use the "thumb method". Don't get me wrong, the nozzle has some flexibility and could be used for various things whether it the garden, pet bathing, or car washing (depending on what specifically you are looking for in a nozzle for each task), but it did not seem as versatile as it claimed to be. If you really want 9 different, useful settings, then you might try another nozzle. If you aren't too particular and you want a durable nozzle that allows you to turn off the water without kinking the hose, with a couple options, then this nozzle will get the job done. Would I buy it again at the list price of $35? No, definitely not. Would I buy it again at the sale price of $12.25? Maybe, depending on what I was buying it for.
