Hozelock Multi Spray Pro

Last time I bought the "Ultimate" which is the same as this one, but has more metal in it. I am not sure that the metal does much other than make it heavier, since to me the material the body is made out of is not the weakness of these products. Note that the description is incorrect, the body is not alloy, that's teh Ultimate, which this is not!! This one, the body is plastic. The design has changed a little from last time, it now has a gentle stop at 50% in both the trigger and the trigger lock, which is really brilliant. The lighter weight (as opposed to the Ultimate) actually feels better. The Ultimate is a little heavy. I pulled my old Ultimate apart (which was six years old) and found that these guns have a number of small o-ring seals in them. Exposed to weather, they rot over time, and then the gun leaks. Judging by the negative reviews, they will also leak if the water pressure is too high and that's understandable. They aren't strong. I watched some videos of leaking units, and for sure the water pressure was a lot higher than mine. So, I think that the problem some people may have with these is that they need to reduce the flow in to the gun, which will, in turn, reduce the back pressure at the nozzle. They could do this by fitting a valve before the tap. What this will do is reduce the flow in to the hose to the same as the flow out of the gun, so reducing the back-pressure when the gun is operating. Just set it to something sensible. This, incidentally, is why they say not to leave the gun out in the winter. When the hose freezes, any water will expand and can put pressure on those o-rings. Anyway, getting back to the point, the gun nozzle is the weak point and it will suffer from the weather and limescale. It's a really good idea to keep it out of bright sun, frost and pull the top off (the yellow bit unscrews) and replace the tiny o-rings (fiddly job). Oddly, Hozelock do not sell replacements, I will update this review when I find some that fit. And if all that's too fiddly, just by an ordinary nozzle! Recommended.

Only lasted 4 months, trigger lock gets stuck, leaks like sieve

Great product but I’ve realised I’ve bought one a year for the last few. Doesn’t do well long term - it could be the hard water area I live in but it’s a bit too “robust” and expensive to be replaced annually. I think hozelock should have a better sustainability policy and do more for customers like me that need to replace so frequently.

Do not drop, the connector is quite fragile

Hozelock probably the best company out there for domestic hose products and this does not disappoint , it works every time without and faults , just as it should

DO NOT BUY. This item is completely defective. Not even had it 24hrs and it’s already broken. Water is pouring out of the trigger and the handle leaving the user drenched. Please trust the hundreds of pictures in these reviews which show it as a broken, cheap bit of plastic. I’m annoyed that Hozelock think that it’s ok to manufacture and sell a product that doesn’t work as listed and more so ship it to a customer.. Do they not test their products? I have applied for a refund. I will be willing to up the rating to 2 stars if I receive a full refund. I will keep you posted! Very disappointed.

Item arrived as scheduled and is as described

Great item

Un peu cher mais il en vaut la peine. Une multitude de jets différents qui permet d'arroser sans faire de dégâts aux plantes et fleurs. Je recommande vivement

Top! Vervangt een oude versie hiervan… deze nieuwe heeft allen iets andere tosti-platen met schuine lijn erin.

Irréprochable, de très bonne qualité, la marque vaut le coup

Avoid. Breaks easily at the hose connector. Go for the whole metal version instead.

Très satisfait, le produit était vraiment très bien
