Bought a nice simple sprayer nozzle today

My cheap plastic sprayer was leaking from the part that rotates to adjust the spray, so I replaced it with this metal on with fewer moving parts and frills.

You're just fishing for complements on that beautiful lawn aren't you you beautiful bastard.

Lol, the lawn only looks so nice because it's not in focus. It's actually pretty patchy right there.

Is it Gilmour? Made in Pennsylvania last time I checked.

Looks like you can attach a hose to your nozzle end. That's pretty wild.

It's intended for something like this, or this

Woah i didn't notice that, very interesting. I guess that makes it function like a valve in a larger system. Huh

It's just a store brand from Lowe's. Honestly I didn't know nozzles were such a thing until this post.

I just like the way he reviews stuff. Straight to the point, it's great.

I've bought several kinds similar and I'm always sorry, that's the right one

My only complaint on these is that they are rough if you use them to water plants. Otherwise they are the superior choice for everything.

GreenKnight23@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 1y

make sure you use some graphite or silicone lubricant on the nozzle rod. I've got hard water issues and those sprayers get locked up after a couple years of regular use.

you could probably pump some CLR through it at the end of the year too, but they're pretty cheap to go buy a new one.

That design has been around for man, many years.

The classic. Hose water out of this bad boy just tastes better.

This one is a buy it for life. I have one that's 20 years old and been left out multiple winters with 4 feet of snow on it. Only ever replaced the gasket.

Great buy!

Nice watch band.. šŸ‘

stevethegeek@lemmy.world · 6 pts · 1y

Thanks, it's a great watch. Nixon Heat A1320. Simple, digital, not smart. I love it.

These are really the best ones, they last a long time and there's no plastic to break.

I've had them rust to uselessness.

stevethegeek@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 1y

That's exactly what I'm hoping for

I have two of these. One has been in service for 15 years and the other is sitting on a hanger for when that one finally gives up. I suspect I’m set for life.

Excellent choice.

Exquisite.
