EASY TO USE - Self-Coiling Hose is lightweight and flexible, making it easy to handle. Say goodbye to the kinks and tangles of your old hose. The standard 3/4" GHT brass connectors are compatible with standard American outdoor faucets. GREAT DURABILITY - Hoses can take a beating, so this Olmsted Forge hose is made from high quality materials. Built with newly upgraded High Performance Polyether material and anti-corrosion brass fittings. COMPACT STORAGE - The hose coils from its full 17-foot usable length down to 16 inches, taking up much less storage space than a traditional hose of the same length. 8-PATTERN WATERING WAND INCLUDED: The 17" length of the watering wand makes it convenient and easy to water hanging flower baskets, spray down the top of your car, or tackle any other jobs that require an extended reach. It features a comfortable cork handle, convenient thumb lever flow control, 8 variable spray patterns (Full, Shower, Center, Cone, Stream, Mist, Vertical, and Flat), and brass alloy fittings and components for rust-free durability. IDEAL GARDENING GIFT: Whether it’s a friend or family member, they’re going to love this heavy duty hose and nozzle kit! With attractive double-boxed packaging, it makes the perfect gift. This Olmsted Forge Coiled Hose Kit includes a 25’ coiled hose with 3/8” ID (Inner Diameter) in high-gloss charcoal gray color with brass fittings and strain relief. The HP (High Performance) quality polyether hose is strong and durable. It is built to last, but also lightweight and flexible. Like all coiled hoses, it has about a 70% usable length. It is best not to stretch the coil all the way out in order to preserve the convenient snap back! When fully retracted the hose is only 16” long for compact storage. The brass fittings reduce corrosion, especially when connected to a spigot made of a similar metal (brass or bronze). Always go for brass over aluminum when looking for long-lasting products. The watering wand features Olmsted Forge's popular Comfort Cork handle with thumb lever control of flow rate. It goes from 100% down to zero for easy shutoff. There is a choice of eight spray patterns on the spray head (Full, Shower, Center, Cone, Stream, Mist, Vertical and Flat). The multiple spray patterns and extra-long reach of the 17” watering wand make it a versatile tool for a variety of jobs, from gently misting hanging potted plants to blasting the dirt off of the pavers! Like all Olmsted Forge products, this Coiled Hose with Watering Wand comes packaged in an attractive gift box that is protected by a sturdy outer shipping box.
