Melnor 8-Pattern 33" GentleRain Watering Wand for Evenly Distributed Watering

Ghost Electric: This is my second purchase of this wand. It lasted well, but after several years outside in the weather, it gave up the ghost. I was happy to find it again. I like the many nozzle options and the ability to secure the stream in the "on" position so I can walk away while it waters. The slight curve of the wand makes it easy to direct the water stream.

Person: We liked this wand for watering plants very much. We took good care of it but it inexplicably fell apart after just a few weeks use. Wish we could get a refund and a better quality wand. I think these used to be made from actual metal of some sort than plastic. Totally not worth the money.

Alan S: I bought this to replace a one speed watering wand extension. This is way more than I needed for that but bonus abilities to use on other projects. I read some of the reviews by people that have bought this for watering and the failures they have had. It's because the trigger wears out. The problem is it's impossible to find a 32 36 inch wand without all the bells and whistles. Too many adjustments, trust it will hold up. Appears well built.

Trish E.: Amazing wand and price-less than half price compared to Walmart and CDn tire. Love the bend - reaches high plants easily

D. Griffiths: If it had one more extension segment to get another 48" or so, would be perfect. Tend to get myself wet on the top of a ladder when it can't quite reach over the edge without soaking me down too.

Jonathan: I love it and use it everyday, but the nozzle wand is leaking a bit after each watering. I use it indoor so it's not cool, but if you use it outdoor it shouldnt be a problem

D. Burki: If this review sounds comical, believe me it isn't meant to be. I was soaked with water because the rod leaked where it telescopes out. I eventually took it apart again and removed the washer and then it stopped leaking. But the nozzle at the end where the water spays out clicks into place where you want it to spray but the minute you knock it against the gutter it moves and then doesn't spray where you want it. That, combined with the pressure of the water, makes it hard to control. I hope my neighbor isn't mad because now her windows are all wet, and mine too. There were no directions that came with this, none at all. I was hoping there was a way to lock that nozzle into place so that it wasn't so sensitive to clicking out of place.If anyone who reads this knows a better way, please let me know.

Eww, it splashes dirty smelly gutter gunk out and on to you...
Trying to look up at the gutters is challenging when the sun is out so you can't look up to see what you're doing up there...
Be careful not to trip over the hose on the ground while you're squinting looking up...
So then you get this icky roof rock grit into your hair as it splashes out of the...

Gary Schuldt: Five stars for the design, minus one for bad engineering of the failure point = 4.

When I first tried this one, I felt my watering wand dreams had come true: Extensibility, rotates to any direction, enough patterns, light materials and ergonomic design, water volume control, and one-handed operation.

I have used it hard for 1-1/2 watering seasons, at least 1 continuous hour per day. Last week it began to leak at the metal ring encircling the point where the hose attaches, the same problem noted by another reviewer. First it just dripped from there; then I noticed my right boot getting wet; from there it leaked a noticeable amount of water. Determined to keep using it (having no comparable alternative), I was able to stanch the leak by using it upside down. I should have ordered a replacement then, for yesterday it failed regardless of orientation and gave me a nice bath during our heat wave. I'm ordering another one now.

Beth Fillman: this sort of wand is difficult to find. easy enough to find a garden sprayer, with a fixed rain pattern, but if you want different spray patterns, there aren't many. This one has the added feature of a head with adjustable angle. For these features and it's quality, it gets a five. nice for aiming in different tight spots. Here's where it began to disappoint, but not much.... At first I tried to use the quick snap attachments so that I could swap out a standard spray, but no matter what I did, those made the wand leak at the joining point. Once I attached the hose directly to the wand we were golden. Most of these wands don't last more than two years, if I'm fortunate. so far this one appears well made and should be ok. For my purposes, I'm not sure I need the extra length that the extender gives this but then one doesn't have to use that feature. It could work out well for washing things that are tall or farther away. All in all, I'm giving it four stars since so far there's been no wand that has it all. This one is really close tho. I'd give it a 4 1/2 if I could. the half point is because it's length makes it a little awkward sometimes. If you need one, I'd still recommend it.
