Wand Sprinkler

Comments about Wand Sprinkler:

As we age grip is not as good so this has a feature that unburdens the hands.

Strip gardening now gets watered in less the time.

Comments about Wand Sprinkler:

This has been handy to get the rows of newly planted seeds and I love the adjustable knob. Gentle spray as well. I have a leak factor but that is due to my hose not the wand as my other sprayers seem not to have a tight connection.

Comments about Wand Sprinkler:

I bought this for my vegetable garden, but the connection did not fit my hose, when I bought an adapter, it leaked. The construction seems flimsy and overall totally not worth it. First time Gardener's Supply has disappointed me. I'd return it, but its not worth the postage.

Comments about Wand Sprinkler:

The best part is that you don't waste water. I did have to put two washers in to stop it from leaking. Once I did that, it worked great. Instructions would have been nice.

Comments about Wand Sprinkler:

Great for covering large areas without "drowning" the plants.

Comments about Wand Sprinkler:

Not a very sturdy product

Comments about Wand Sprinkler:

Very gentle on the plants and soil. I practice intensive gardening so I need to avoid anything that may compact the soil. This does the job.

1. The photo shows a single line of water, but there are actually two. So if you're watering a row of seedings, you're also watering the bare ground between the rows!
2. The catalog description didn't mention the quick-connect attachment. I didn't realize that it could be removed, so added my own "female" attachment to connect it to the hose. The result was a very leaky connection. When I tried to remove my female quick-connect attachment, the entire male part that came with the product came off, stripping the plastic threads from the part that connects to the hose. So now it's pretty useless.
3. It's a great concept, to be able to direct the flow of water to a row of seeds or seedlings, but I think not very well executed.

Doesn't connect to ANY size of US hoses. What a colossal waste of time and money. Seems like such a nifty device--but beware! Made in CHINA for UK market--[...] In these times, I feel that one's money shouldn't be tied up to a product that was POORLY described (and therefore UNUSABLE!). [...] Alas.
