FlexzillaNFZG62 Twist Action Nozzle, Green

I read the lousy reviews on this and shopped for a different one, but really didn't find one with significantly better reviews (and certainly not at this price). The more I searched, I just kept coming back and taking another look at this one so I bought it.First impressions:I boat in Florida. I need a good sprayer to rinse down my boat and trailer after a day on saltwater. After a few uses, this absolutely exceeds my expectations which were admittedly low from the poor reviews. I have owned a few of these fire hose type nozzles with my favorite so far being a Craftsman that I bought at Sears at the mall when that was a thing. The Craftsman is bigger and heavier and has lasted over 15 years so far and is still going strong. It shuts off with a twist in either direction, but doesn't have the precise spray that this one does. The worst I have owned were from Harbor Freight and I literally gave them away.Anyway, general observations and why I like this one:- Compact and lightweight... remarkably lightweight- When it is shut off, there is not even a drip coming from it- I need a 12-15 feet of a strong tight jet of a water stream to reach my brakes, ends of torsion axles, and various trailer components while I lay on the ground at the rear of my boat. This nozzle provides that, possibly better than my Craftsman nozzle.- I need a nice cone of water to rinse larger areas including the inside and outside of my boat. This cone needs to be strong enough to knock off salt (salt removal is mechanical, you have to physically knock it off the boat). While this nozzle has a very small adjustment range that provides a hard hitting cone of water (and the cone itself is pretty small), it is strong and works well. I am pleased with it.Cons:- It only shuts off when twisted in one direction and it seems to be the opposite of the direction that I want to naturally twist. I will get used to this.- To get a hard jet of water in a cone shape, the adjustment window is rather small. I will say that the cone it does make works well. It will make a cone of water in any size, but it has a super small window to make one where the water comes out stinging hard.Longevity:To be determined. I will update this if/when it fails. My Craftsman set a high bar for this.

Works like a charm

Bought the 100 ft Flexzilla hose for my backyard and it is a breeze to use and move around even when it is completely stretched out. Very supple.

Excellent nozzle

I have 70 psi at my hose end, and it is still not enough to give me maximum water from this sprinkler end.
