This is the perfect watering wand, so I really hope it doesn't pop a leak. I tried the one from Walmart and in comparison this really is a premium product. The water flow control is much better and the rain setting is the perfect pressure for almost every watering application, a setting which other non-specialized wands and sprayers don't have. I need the thumb controls because holding a trigger hurts my arthritis.

Why haven’t I gotten this sooner?! My local nursery uses these so I asked about them. They said they love using them. I now make daily use of my watering wand. It has made my watering chore so much more efficient with less bending and reaching.

Purchased this wand at the beginning of the growing season after going through about one or two Walmart wands a year. Since we have greenhouses and cold tolerant plants, we needed something that was tough enough to survive an occasional frost. Usually the cheap Walmart wands didn't, with the freezing water breaking their plastic valves.Unfortunately the first frost killed this one too, making the wand last as long as a Walmart wand, even though it cost 4x as much and was made in the USA.What surprised me was where the wand broke. The aluminum wand beyond the valve split, even though we drained it before the cold, and it was not under any pressure. Yes freezing water expands, but with the end of the wand open, it should have had plenty of room to do so. For some reason, the wall of this wand split, and then being made of thin aluminum, it pretty much unzipped itself under use.The wife wants to try another one, but given this one lasted a single growing season and broke the first frost, I see no point. When I took it apart I saw the valve had a plastic ball, and even though it didn't fail during the freeze while under pressure, I wondered where the extra $$$ went.I hate buying disposable anything. It just runs against my ethos. I'm very disappointed that this product bills itself as being better than the competition when it clearly is not.

I like these because of the easy to use push-pull on/off valve on the handle. It is a one hand, actually your thumb, operation. Other wands have a twist type valve which always breaks and requires two hands.

I like the thumb control. When the water is running through it it.pulses like air is in it. No soaker setting and no ratcheting tilting head like my old one that finally broke. I needed this so I didn't return it. I would not buy it again. It's good American made quality, but it lacks those useful features i need.

I've had cheap watering wands before and they worked ok. I got tired of them eventually leaking though. I have a pretty big garden and really grew a lot this summer and put this thing to the test. It worked flawlessly and effortlessly.Only thing I might have done differently is ordered on with the squeeze handle instead, but the little lever works just fine.

I really wanted to love this but it does have some problems.As other have noted, the spray labels arrive misaligned. This can actually be fixed by tightening the head but it can be tricky. The labels should always line up, this seems like a design flaw.Some of the spray settings are great but others end up with water dripping down or spraying in weird directions.The pressure setting bar works great a d ti easy to use. Ive had no leaks and it is comfortable to hold.Overall I'm happy with it but it is pretty pricey for what it is.

This wand is gangster AF.It has a lot of reach/pressure if you have it set to shoot a stream. It literally has recoil when you turn it on. The mist is absolutely spot on. As well as the shower function.Ive had a lot of hose attachments, but this one by far is my favourite.

The Dramm Rain Select Rain Wand is a wonderful tool reaching planters that are far away, or even just for filling my watering can. The want attached securely to my hose and was perfect for watering plants in my greenhouse before I was able to get them in the ground. It is also a back-saver when filling watering cans, or watering in new plants. The head of the wand features all of the usual options for misting, soaking, jet spray, etc as my other hand held nozzles but has a farther reach. The thumb selector to increase and decrease water pressure works well too. Great product.

Been an avid gardener for 30 years and this is the best watering wand I have ever used. My satisfaction is primarily in the ease of control given by the ball valve which is controlled by your thumb. The flow is easily throttled and shutoff is as easy as a flick of the thumb. Other control designs require a second hand and usually last only a short time. The overall feel is very solid and I've experienced no fitting leakage with 3 different setups. The nozzle selection I use allows very heavy flow which is easy to reduce when needed.My only suggestion to the manufacturer is to also offer the same design in a longer wand.
