I was really hoping that this nozzle was going to be great, but, it's not.It was a waste of my money.The setting for the water to stream out with some pressure is very poor. My cheap nozzle (even with the drip) does a much better job.This nozzle is NOT worth the money.....save your money!

Gilmour Metal Bubbler #315MTL Review
Have been looking all over for a good bubbler. Several years ago bought a plastic one for a couple dollars and found it was the greatest thing for watering container plants and spot watering beds. Since I have added more plants, had need another for a second and third line.Bought one of these and loved it, but the head broke off.So when I saw someone had was selling them at close out price of $3.00,I bought three. Regretfully, have broken two more in less than a season.The problem is the head is very thin aluminum and if you drop it when you finish using it, the head can break of where it screws onto the hose. Or if you try to screw the bubbler on by twisting itshead, it comes right off. All in all, a very poor execution of product that can be of great use.
And yes, the old cheap plastic bubbler just keeps working.Drops concrete, no problem.Twist the head to tighten, no problem. My only problem is I can't find more of them.

Chapin 20000 1-Gallon Lawn and Garden Sprayer Review
For the price I expected poor quality.I was wrong.This is as durable as the other ~1gal+ sprayers that exist.The tip adjusts the spray pattern.If you want a larger sprayer by all means get a larger one if you want a small one this is it.

Ames True Temper ReelEasy Assembled Hose Reel Cart #2385575 Review
I concur with the other reviewers...this really is junk.It leaked like CRAZY (as in water flowing all the way to my neighbor's driveway within the first 10 minutes) and no amount of tightening could stop it.You could never really use the "handy" reel-it-in feature, since the whole contraption is too flimsy to support its own weight.Then it broke one day, just from falling over while I was unreeling hose...the whole handle just broke right off.Other parts soon followed.
I tried to use it until the end of the season, but the leaking progressed to the point where I finally just put it out on the curb the night before trash day.Not surprisingly, nobody garbage-picked it...;-)
Soooooo not worth any money saved!Get a better model.

Nelson Brass/Metal Hose Repair Clamp Connector Male #50520 Review
I ran over the end of my garden hose with the edge of my mower and the threading for the end was smashed beyond repair.So I went to a local Big Box home supply store and got a $3 compression fitting like this item.Only it was junk.It was a thin piece of pot metal and apparently put together by child slave labor.It went on and leaked everywhere, not just where you would expect it to (from the hose end) but from the connecting point where the threading met the compression fitting!
So, I was looking for something more substantial.This thing fit the bill.It anchors itself on the hose with a couple of screws, so the compression is good, and it's a thick solid chuck of metal throughout, with actual brass (not chrome plated slag).It hasn't leaked a drop since I put it on.The cost isn't too bad if you have Prime.But in hindsight, buying a replacement hose probably wouldn't have been a bad alternative.But that seems wasteful to me and this thing was WAY better than the garbage I found in the stores.

Plastair SpringNozzle WN-G-4M-AMZ 9-Pattern Spray Nozzle With Trigger Lock - Green Review
I have Bonsai trees that needed a mist sprayer. This has a really good mist spray option, that sends out water in a very good mist. The mist will go to the direction you point the nozzle to; what I'm trying to say is that, in the past I have got nozzles that spray mist, but the direction the water goes to is wrong comparatively to the direction your pointing the spray. But this nozzle is so accurate that the water goes to the exact direction you point the nozzle to.
This nozzle has many other water sparying option for larger plants. Also could be used as a very good car washing sprayer etc, using the jet spary option.
The nozzle could be used for so many things, and the price is really good too. The build quality is SUPER! This is the highest quality Spray Nozzle I have used. Even better than the more expensive nozzles!

Gilmour Water Weeper Hose Review
I have tried various soaker hoses and have never been satified with any of them until I tried this one.I live in a windy location and the soaker hoses would squirt up into the air and blow all over.This hose just weeps and is easily to control with a cheap pressure regulator from WalMart.I like being able to bury it or have it above ground.It is also nice and flexiable. The quality is excellent, much better than any other I have.Recommend this item for anyone who needs a slow steady supply of water on their garden.

Ames True Temper 2384675 Deluxe Hose Reel Cart Review
I ordered the Real Easy cart on Friday afternoon and,as promised, received the cart on Monday. The cart was shipped completely assembled in good condition. Within 1 hour, I had my garden hose installed and my wife started to water the lawn. I experienced no water leakages between the connector hose and the cart and between connector hose and my garden hose. The 8" wheels and three hose notches in the handle for the hoses make moving the cart much easier than our current hose carts. The documentation of the operating instructions and the part lists are excellent. Also, the hose cart looks nice. We had no problems with the paper work concerning this purchase.

Ray Padula RP-SREE 8-Pattern Series R Advanced Functionality Hose Nozzle Review
I ordered two of these, one for the front and one for the back. I chose this one because it was recommended by Real Simple magazine. I have difficulty with many nozzles because they are difficult to turn on and off or to change the spray setting. My spouse has arthritis in her hands, but this nozzle is much easier for both of us than any we have ever tried. You only need to lift the little lever on the end to turn the water on or off, and it moves easily and smoothly. The spray is easily changed with the ring in the front. I thought it would be heavy from the photos, but it's actually lightweight and easy to hold, especially compared to the heavy metal ones we used before.

Industrial Grade Hose Cart Review
I bought this two years ago after going through four plastic carts.Assembly was tedious, but the cart was well-built and did very well the first year.It was left outside through our mild winters and by the second spring it was rusty, the axel warped, and finally, this second summer it has sprung an irreparable leak.No parts are available and repair would involve complete disassembly.
As it turned out, this more expensive cart was only slightly more valuable than a $40 plastic one.

Gilmour 20 Series Platinum 8 Ply Flexogen Hose 5/8 Inch x 25 Feet #20-58025 Platinum Review
I own 3 of the regular Flexogen 8 ply aqua colored hoses and they still work fine after 19 years use, but they have a mildew issue (granted I can easily wipe it off w/ bleach but I'd prefer if I didn't have to do this). I bought this hose to see since it is the latest and greatest version if it would be more mildew resistant. I have not had it long enough to yet determine. I also like the connecting ends better since it reduces stress and hopefully will prevent leaking at the faucet end. This is a solid reputation company that stands behind its product (my neighbor sent one back for a quick replacement). It is so true that once you buy this wonderful kink free hose that you will never have to buy another, except of course those in my situation that desire to try the latest model!

Liberty Garden Products 3-in-1 Garden Hose Reel With 200-Foot Hose Capacity #703-1-Bronze Review
The hose reel has one very bad fault.The fitting for the hose is outside the reel, so you have to run the hose through the side of the reel and to the fitting.When you roll up the hose, it kinks because of the tight curve, and, puts such a strain on the fitting that leaks are also a problem.I bought 2 right angles, 3 two-inch pieces, and hose fittings and brought the fitting to the inside of the reel and it works fine now.Another problem is when you pull only a short section of hose off the reel, it keeps spinning and unreels the rest of the hose onto the floor.
It will do, but certainly is no more than that.Definitely too high priced for what you get, and the modifications you have to make.

Liberty Garden Products Two Wheel Garden Hose Reel Cart With 300-Foot Hose Capacity #880-1-Bronze Review
I have to use this on a daily basis for winter watering of my horses.It holds all the hose I need and I even have room to add more.The other 250 capacity reels were stuffed and over flowing with the hose I need to use. This was easy to put together, rolls the hose up like a dream compared to the others that I have used.The 2 wheels on it allow me to tip it back and either push it or pull it easily.It also fits very nicely through my front door because it needs to go in and out of the house daily with our -20+ temperatures.So far I think it was worth every penny.

Ray Padula RP-SFHD Series Fire Fireman Nozzle with Pull It Handle Review
This nozzle is constructed very well, has the fireman style pull, and in particular, has a great range and spray pattern control. I also have a Melnor nozzle that is similar, but it seems to restrict the flow more than this one.So far, I rate this nozzle high and seems to be the best of this fireman style home consumer nozzle lineup.

Gilmour Full Size Zinc Pistol Grip Nozzle with Threaded Front #573TF Review
This is a great nozzle. I have used a lot of these over the years, but I can no longer find them in hardware stores, so I went to Amazon. It came from a company named Deerso. When UPS lost my package, Deerso was extremely responsive, even though it was not their mistake.

The Rumford Gardener 30-Foot Deluxe Flat Hose with 9 Attachments #GA9500 Review
Sorry, but I have to give this hose a thumbs down.With all of the connectors and attachments, I haven't yet been able to find a combination that doesn't leak horribly--either at the base, or at the handpiece.One almost needs to certainly wear shorts or a bathing suit to use the hose because it's guaranteed you'll get wet while using it.I'd send it back if I hadn't already thrown out the box (still debating, actually).

Flexon PH5850 5/8-Inch x 50-Foot Heavy Duty Premium Rubber Hot Water Hose Review
I have a washing machine in an area without a water heater or running water.I purchased four of these hoses to lay in the sun, hooked up to an outdoor faucet and connected to the machine. Then I purchased four more since the first four only filled the machine halfway with hot water. The idea works great and the hoses are holding up well. It sure saves money on electricity.By the way, I live in the desert so this way of heating water poses no problem.

Ames True Temper 2398200 Water Genie Hose Reel With 40-Foot Hose Review
This makes so much sense!My deck no longer has hose snaking all over it, and the can is much lighter than a standard watering can.I do prefer to pull the entire 40 feet of hose out and lock it in place to do the plants in the front of the house (the spigot is in the back) as there is some tension on the hose otherwise, but reeling it back in is a snap - just move the lever to unlock.Well made also, and nothing to rust.As it is sealed, no leaves or sprouts get inside to hinder the water spray.Can't say enough good things about this product.

Bond 6928 Pink 50-Foot Medium Duty Garden Hose With Free 9 Pattern Nozzle Review
I find it troubling that a company creates a "pink" hose to honor and give a percentage of money to the research of breast cancer - while at the same time - fabricating this hose in china and fabricating it with LEAD in it. Seems kind of insane, doesn't it??!

EZ JET WATER CANNON AS SEEN ON TV Review
Having just moved to Florida, and doing more outdoor living, we were compelled to try this mighty sprayer for all our outdoor clean-ups.It is fabulous and even my skeptical husband had to admit I made a good choice this time!
We have used the E Z Jet to spray away the debris that falls through the screen over our pool deck area, to clean the ceramic tile on our patio, which is a breeze as well, washed outdoor cushions and lawn chairs, windows (it blasts the dirt out of the tracks), watered and fertilized our plants on the softer mist selection, washed our carsand the list goes on and on.I am sure we will expand the applications of this little wonder during the summer/fall months as we find more for it to do.It is lightweight and easy to attach to the hose, and can be wielded with ease, so ladies, no excuses.Even a child could manage using this if you wanted to give a fun chore away to someone who says he/she is bored.Just tell them it is a canon.Sounds more fun that way.
E Z Jet is well worth the money and probably does the job of a much more expensive and cumbersome product.The design of the unit (which I don't understand),
really enables this sprayer to give a very tight forceful stream that can knock your socks off, and yet, can have the most gentle mist when you need to spray your delicate plants, and also does everything in-between.It has held up to a lot of use and applications,so I expect it to be a long-lasting "Keeper".
I would recommend this product to anyone who wants to get the job done (and fast); likes a tidy area for summer outdoor living but wants to save your strength for hoisting a drink while you lounge at your sparkling oasis.A worthy product for making "Summertime".....when the living is E Z.(Jet)

Roundup 190261 2-Gallon Lawn & Garden Sprayer With 36-Inch Hose and 3-Nozzle System Review
If you've ever used Roundup, you know that the ready-mixed containers are much more expensive than the concentrates.It makes sense to mix your own solution to the appropriate dilution, so Roundup offers this handy-looking sprayer to get the job done.
Well, my sprayer worked fine for about an hour, after which the flimsy plastic trigger broke and fell off.When I contacted the manufacturer, per their warranty procedures, they gave me a huge runaround. Even after I sent them photos that clearly showed the torn plastic fitting they denied responsibility, claiming that they do not cover "lost parts."What was at stake for them?They wanted me to send $3 for a replacement part. You can't make this stuff up, folks!
In my opinion, this product is not spray-worthy.If herbicide is your game, this thing is lame.Forget it, otherwise it could be you who ends up getting hosed.

Nelson 50503 High-Pressure Rated Fireman's Style Industrial Spray Nozzle with Large On/Off Lever Review
I won this as a door prize and laughed.I figured it would be just something else to sell at the next garage sale, but I thought I'd try it first. I was impressed.It does put out a lot of water (we have 80# pressure) and the large end controls the stream easily. I'm able to adjust the stream from concentrated full force to a fine mist and since it puts out so much water, it cut the time I need to water the flowers in the morning in half. I'm so impressed, I'm buying another for the front yard.
The only thing I didn't like about it was that the on/off seemed backwards to me.You pull back to start the flow and push forward to stop. Also, it is heavy, but at least I don't have to worry about it falling apart like the plastic ones.
Update--Dec 27,2009 -I've now used 2 of these all summer and fall and am still sold.They're great.I was able to reverse the on/off lever by removing the screws and switching the handle to the reverse side of the nozzle as stated in some of the comments and soon found out why it's the way it is.When the nozzle is on the ground, it's very tempting to pick it up using the on/off lever.When the forward position is the OFF position, it's not a problem.When it's reversed and you pick up the nozzle, the handle moves forward (to ON) because of the weight of the hose and you end up getting soaked.It's happened a couple of times to me, so I switched it back to the way it came.I guess they DID know what they were doing.

Ames True Temper 2388310 Reel Easy Side Mount Hose Reel Review
I bought this today at my local hardware outlet... and three frustrating hours later, returned it... Here are my pro's and con's:
Pros:
* Nice color, blends into any house or garden
* Inexpensive
* Doesn't cause skin irritation, vomiting or hives (ok, that's a stretch, but I couldn't think of a third pro and I wanted three)
Cons:
*Flimsy plastic, cheaply made
*Connector to water supply line is plastic, not brass, and despite much tightening, mine dripped and dripped.
*Does NOT hold a 100 foot 5/8" hose.Not even close.
I'm going to order a metal "professional" model on Amazon that's about 3x the price of this...but reviews are very positive and it looks like it will last.This thing will NOT last.

24" Coil Hose Holder Review
I bought this product to hold my 50' coil hose.It arrived with no manufacturing defects, and appears to be mechanically sturdy and painted properly to withstand prolonged exposure to the weather.Also, it's a piece of cake to install with the supplied brackets.In my case, I mounted it to a cement block wall, so I used some cement wall anchors - again very easy.
This product is probably large enough to hold a 200' coil hose, because my 50' coil hose occupies maybe 25% of the volume of this product.This situation looks a little odd to me, and since I bought it to improve how my patio looks, it didn't work out ideally.
Also, there is a design issue based on the fact that each of the bars in this basket are running approximately the same direction as adjacent bars and there are no "cross-members".The result is that the weight of the water in my coil hose causes the coils to poke through the bottom of the basket about three or four inches.If there were cross-members this wouldn't happen.I'm in the process of cutting and painting a small steel screen to put in the bottom of this thing to prevent my coil hose from partially falling through the bottom of the basket.

Gilmour 15 Series 4 Ply Reinforced Vinyl Hose 5/8 Inch x 100 Feet #15-58100 Green Review
Product was bought to run from the hose to the garden. It allows a Scare Crow (electronic motion detector) to spray any varmits that may wonder into the garden, from deer to ground hog.
Chose this product for the ply count and length. Needed a hose that would hold constant water pressure to device.

Claber 4-Way Garden Hose Water Distributor Valve #8581 Review
No matter how much teflon tape I've placed on this, it continues to leak from the back connected to the main faucet when I leave the water on to a mainline out to my garden and timer.The quick connects stay on for a moment then slip and begin to leak.I yanked them off and threw them away.I much prefer the dials to turn the water on and off, now if I could only get the rear of the thing to quit leaking.

Nelson Brass Dual Outlet Long-Neck Industrial Hose Adapter #50545 Review
This adapter has a low flow as it has relatively small water channels.But it leaks through either side at about 5GPH even when shut with pylers. That's enough for a small soaker hose. Has 100F and 60psi limitation that will not matter for most folks. The Nelson Rezimar High-Water Flow Dual Outlet Kink-Free Flex Hose Adapter with Coil #50315 is much much better for less money!

Gardena 8154 Premium 3-Pattern Ergonomic Garden Hose Spray Nozzle With Quick Connect Review
Nice to have products that actually improve as opposed to being victims of Chinese mass production and lack of quality control.This GardenaSpray Nozzle has some new features: a softer head so it won't break when inevitably dropped on a sidewalk.There is stronger material in the whole unit, it has a wonderful thumb control for the delivery of pressure and turn off and the quick connect attachment is a more durable material as well.Wish they carried these new connector units.But after 5 or more seasons with the same devices, lightly tended to, they all still work like new for us.Gardena can be counted on for being the best.

Flexon FXG58100 5/8-Inch x 100-Foot Heavy Duty 5-Ply Forever Garden Hose Review
This hose is "very" heavy.Was very hard for me to uncurl.For a heavy duty hose it "does" have a problem with kinks.And once kinked it has a tendency to kink very easy in the same spot.I would recommend putting the hose in the sun for awhile before trying to uncurl it.I say this because I used this in early spring here in the northeast, and maybe the cool weather made it harder to manage.But, because of the weight, I wouldn't recommend this hose if you will have to move it around a lot.

Gilmour 26 Series 5 Ply All Seasons Double Reinforced Vinyl Hose 5/8 Inch x 50 Feet #26-58050 Green Review
I was lazy and thought I could get the best/host value on line.This hose had no reviews, yet I was attracted by the advertisement that it resisted kinks. It is thiner/less substantial than I thought it would be.It kinks just as easily as the very cheap old hose it replaced (which probably needed replacing anyways).In hindsight, when at Walmart recently I saw superior hoses at or below the price I payed for this one on Amazon. Well live and learn.....next time I will not make so many assumptions on value with such items and broaden my search locally if I can.

Gardena 8567 Classic 99-Foot x 1/2-Inch Skin Tech Anti-Kink Garden Hose Review
It's NOT supposed to come with fittings ... but it did! There's no mention of fitting or connecters. I just needed a hose. It also has a "U" designation after the # of the product I received but does not have that designation when I ordered the item. The hose is excellent quality. The only reason I kept it is because I could use the connecters.

Nelson 50335 Brass Hose Quick Connectors, Male, 2-Pack Review
This is a perfect product. I have been using them for a couple of years now and have not had a single problem. I must own over a dozen or so. It is a very high quality and stands up to the outdoor environment very well. I have left them outside over the NY winter without any problems. They don't leak and operate flawlessly.
Of note, if this matters to you, they create a swivel joint that can be a pro or a con depending on the use. For my garden sprinkler, it is a pro because it prevents kinks in the hose. For my sprayer nozzle it is a con, because you need to screw the nozzle to open or close it - I need to be sure to hold the nozzle in the right place to operate it.
Overall, I absolutely love this product and keep buying more for every new hose accessory I buy.
Amazon sells a male/female set or a set of two males. The female end is for the spigot or end of the hose. The male end fits into your sprinkler, nozzle, or sprayer.

Ames True Temper 2391200A Decorative Bronze Wall Mount Hose Reel Review
I've used several cheaper hose reels from different manufacturers (I have an acre of garden and over 1000 ft of hoses scattered around the property) and this one is much, much better quality. It is all metal, the central "axle" or shaft is machined from solid aluminum (not just cast, or worse yet, plastic) with a good sized snap ring on the end, hose fittings are solid brass and very sturdy, the handle is sturdy and well made (and "keyed" to the central shaft with a bolt that goes through it and the shaft, not just a "set screw" type friction attachment that will eventually wear and spin on the shaft when you try to roll up a long/heavy hose), and the supplied hose (to connect to your faucet) is heavy duty. If you know something about metal machining and understand the difference between solid machined parts and cheaper cast (or even worse, stamped) metal parts you'll appreciate the quality of this hose reel. I'm going to replace all of my cheaper reels (which are all leaking and malfunctioning or falling apart in one way or another after just a couple years) with this model. And Lowe's has it for just $75. Compared to the much lower quality (and mostly plastic) reels that sell for $50-$60 or more, it is more than worth every penny.

Ames True Temper True Temper Reel Easy Hose Reel Caddy #2386375 Review
This product might work if your hose is always running, but if the hose happens to have a kink in it, or if the water is turned off at the nozzle, turning on the water leading to the reel blows out (literally!!) a black plastic connector that attaches the reel to the hose that leads to the water line. Two small screws hold the connector to the reel, so any build-up of pressure inside the reel leads to disaster.
It seemed a good idea at the time, but obviously not practical for anyone with decent water pressure if there is ANY chance that the hose might be blocked at some point past the hose reel.
