Ratings & Reviews for Orbit Max 1 -Pattern Thumb control Trigger Nozzle

Easy

Easy to use and sprays well.

Cheaply made

Water leaks out the unit

Hose Sprayer

Nice design with a lever you push versus a handle you pull.

No jet spray

Bought two of these nozzles to replace selectable spray pattern nozzles that clog up from our well water. Neither nozzle will produce a true jet spray pattern, one gets close to a jet than the other. The thumb trigger adjust is very stiff compared to other nozzles. It does put out a lot of water and it won't clog up, but it could be a lot better.

Perform Well, for a While

I have bought several Orbit brand spray nozzles and have had similar problem with most of them. They perform very well fro about one season and then they leak from the internal o-ring. Those that have the thumb control become very hard to move the thumb control to control on-off or the intensity of they spray. And then the ones that have the trigger to start and stop the water flow, after about one season, the trigger will work to turn the water on but when you release it, it will not release...

Good while it lasted, but...

Like other reviewers, I have been in search for a reliable, heavy duty hose nozzle. I could have sworn that when I purchased this nozzle, it came with a lifetime warranty, and that gave me confidence. It was pricier than the other nozzles on display, so I figured that it would be worth it. Now I cannot find the warranty card. The nozzle worked well for me thru a season and a half of gardening, although late in the second season, it started to develop a little leak. Today, I went to use it and wa...

Do not purchase

Bought 2,thinking they were a premium sprayer. Before the season was over the on/off lever on both was so tight they would not turn on. Suppose to be lifetime warranty. Store said I had to return to supplier. More offshore junk!

top one so far

I purchased three different nozzles at the beginning of spring/summer. This is the only one that has held up. It is simple so perhaps less to break. Adjustable spray goes from medium to really hard. Will be purchasing two more of these.

Strong, sturdy nozzle

This thing shoots water like crazy. Fully adjustable. Just hope the pressure adjuster doesn't lock up with calcium like the similar craftsman model did.

Poorly constructed

Leaked at the input and output from the very first time I tried to use it. Difficult to hold in one hand and manage the on/off lever where they have it built. Bought a $3 regular hose nozzle instead and it works great.

Not so goog

After buying two of these in a row, both shutoff heads failed and began to leak after just a few usage.

Underwhelming performance

was very disappointed with this nozzle's performance. Water delivery is not very forceful. Just do not like any of the settings (better off with a regular conventional hose nozzle I have from 10 years ago ). Am returning to Lowes ASAP
