This craftsman hose nozzle (fireman style) was exactly what I was looking for. It allows a flooding spray that will wash the soapy water off the car, water a shrub, fill a bucket or wash the dog all without any side spray. The forceful stream is capable of sweeping off the deck or concrete or spraying...

I guess you could say that the product works as it is supposed to, but it sure doesn't have the same pressure as the $3 old-school pistol grip nozzle. I wish I had had the opportunity to use one of these before I purchased it, because it is not quite what it makes it self out to be.

After using various cheap nozzles and becoming increasingly dissatisfied with their performance I decided to look for one that I could count on for the long haul.  After doing some research it became clear that the Craftsman nozzle appeared to be a safe bet.  The whole concept was easy and the performance has been exactly what I had been looking for.  While it would seem that something as simple as a blasted hose nozzle would be an easy item to obtain it was not the case until this purchase.

The Craftsman has two-way shutoff and I can get the stream that I desire for jobs ranging from washing...

This is the first hose nozzle I have ever used that did not drip somewhere.  No drips where it screwed onto the hose, no drips out of the front when it was turned to either off position, and no drips anywhere else.  Turning the nozzle through the various stream options was smooth.  I bought this to hand water my lawn and it worked beautifully.

This will be the last nozzle you'll ever need!  Forget those bargain-priced nozzles.  You know, the ones with a dozen spray settings (all useless except for maybe two of them), flimsy plastic parts and uncomfortable design.  The Craftsman hose nozzle with it's lifetime warranty, will outlast them all, paying for itself in replacement costs alone.

Great design: rubber-clad edges provide grip; protect and absorb impacts from drops; rubber-over-metal allows for safe and comfortable use with hot water applications.

Great for car-washing: flexible jet stream patterns allow everything from blasting...

I love this nozzle. It replaces all of the other ones I had previously and now I have one for the front yard and also the back.  It does everything I need and better than the other nozzles

The BEST hose nozzle I've ever owned!

This is by far the best hose nozzle I've ever owned for the following reasons:

  1. Infinite spray patterns just by truning nozzle.
  2. Can turn it off in either direction.
  3. Indestructible rubber jacket - you can drop it on the driveway while washing your car without fear of breaking it.
  4. Just open it up while coiling-up the hose and it lets the water drain without removing the nozzle.

This is truly the best pressure you will ever get from a nozzle. The jet is the strongest spray I can get without a pressure washer. I have dropped this thing & run over with tractor & cars and it is still in perfect condition. I actually went back and bought one for each hose and spiggot on the outside of our house.

excellent

Have had a few of these for several years.  Works perfectly.  Very easy to adjust spray pattern.  Does not break.  Worth the extra cost relative to other nozzles, especially being you do get the lifetime guarantee.

A great nozzle.

I too have had a number of nozzles that broke not long after they were purchased. This one is great. I love it. Highly recommend it.

Not Very Durable

I bought one of these nozzles last year. Although I like it's ease of use and trigger free operation, the nozzle is cheaply made. It broke on me during the first season of use. The center piece became completely detached from the nozzle, rendering it useless. Sears replaced it and I haven't had any problems since. Prior to this nozzle, I owned a sears (not craftsman) trigger model which lasted 7 years.

unhappy user

I am not happy with this nozzle. Since I bought my first nozzle two years ago it has been replace two times already. This will make my fourth nozzle when I get this one replaced. It leaks around the stainless and rubber. Craftsman replaces it but it won't last through the summer season. I'm not rough on any of my tools. I take extra good care of my tools. So I know I'm not the problem. I think to wear the Craftsman name it should last. My other Craftsman tools last a long time. Thanks.

great nozzle, but......

While it is true that this is probably the best nozzle on the market, you must remember to remove it from the hose periodically to prevent it from becoming permanently attached via galvanic action between two different metals(I believe the inner threads of the nozzle are aluminum or pot metal) In short, works good but now I have to return both hose and nozzle to Sears.

A great water hose nozzle...

I just purchased this nozzle and thought it looked different than any nozzle I've seen. I took it home and placed it on my hose (the coupling mechanism is awesome), and turned it on...Oh My God...this is the best by far water hose nozzle I've ever owned. The spray is easily changed from "rain like" to "full force". It didn't leak all over my hand like most nozzles do...! I highly recommend this nozzle to everyone...it's the best nozzle you'll ever own...I swear by it~
