    Same here. I noticed my cheap nozzle is starting to leak because i keep on dropping it. I guess i'm too lazy to bend down to gently place it on the ground

    I used to have a nozzle like the UHN. I dont like the twisting thing. I like to have quick input into what i'm doing. The trigger nozzles make that easier.

      I have tried the fire nozzles before and IMO they are a pain in the butt to use because to get to the stream you have to go almost the entire way one way, then all the way back to turn it off to actually wash the panel, then back and forth, back and forth the entire time you are washing the car. I stick with my metal Gilmour Multi-Setting Spray Nozzle from Lowe's. Squeeze the trigger to turn it on and let go to turn it off.

          30 dollars is a little too high for me for just a nozzle.

            Ive always wondered what nozzle mike used in his google video.

            And I figured it would require lots of water pressure along with water flow to do good. Ive got a pump that I can hook up to boost our sad pressure of 10psi(at times) to 50-60psi. Works good but I dont always use it since it a hassle to drag out and hook up. Although I do use quick disconnects.

              You're a walking ad for the better nozzles. A couple a year in a cheapie nozzle or $20/$25 for one with a lifetime guarantee and much better performance seems like a no brainer to me.

                That's what I was thinking also. What yo spend in nozzles per year would probably come close to getting one of these that will last a lot longer. It will also save a lot of trips to the store. just typing out loud.
