Claber 9563 Multi-Jet Garden Hose Nozzle

so far it's the best nozzle I have owned as far as ease of use, options, etc. I hope the plastic construction lasts through the winters!

Great nozzle, Easy adjustments for spray

Superior product, built to last well engineered, and I am as picky as they come.

The Claber nozzles are excellent, we have 2. But this model which is less expensive started leaking from handle male fitting after a year. I repaired the leak but then found the orange trigger no longer worked. The nozzle just stayed on. No repair for this - just get another. It was a very good nozzle but the quality has slipped in this model.

Update, 18 months or so later. I stand by my original review from a functionality standpoint. Works very well, highly adjustable much better than the cheap ones from HD. However, there is a flaw. the way it is designed it is very easy to accidentaly unscrew the head when adjusting the spray. When putting it back on, it is very easy to not get the metal screen part on correctly leading to cross-threading. Then... the whole thing comes apart at inconvenient times, say when you're washing the dog. I fixed this by epoxying the rubber/screen part of the head in place. Doesn't impact functionality, but I hope it doesn't get clogged. Clabor Multi-jet is still going strong.Excellent product. Everything a nozzle should be. Rugged, easy to adjust spray (though a little different from others)built in flow adjustment (separate from spray adjustment). Easy lock. Forget those home center throwaways. It used to be you could get a decent nozzle from Gilmour for example but the stuff they sell at the home centers is junk. I've gone through two of those a season for the last several years. I expect this one to last many years. This nozzle is all plastic, but solidly built. I also purchased a Claber Metal-Jet at the same time. I expect that one to last forever, though it's not as adjustable as the Multi-Jet.

Bought this 5 months ago and thought it was a great nozzle; worked well, easy to use. Now, less than six months later, it has sprung minute leaks over the entire unit. Very strange, but obviously useless now. Save your money.

New, excellent quality, delivered as promised

As others have noted, this tends to leak. I've returned a good number to Amazon that have leaked within the first few weeks. That said, it's unique in its overall design and function and works well with the Claber retractable hose reel -- and I haven't found one that does the same: fine mist >> gentle rain >> adjustable jet… So, i'll keep buying them as necessary and returning the super-defective ones.
