Why it earns a look

One simple spray for the daily watering round
The fan shower is a useful shape for flowers and a patch of newly seeded ground. The built-in lever keeps the flow adjustment close to your hand. A multi-pattern nozzle is the better choice when the same tool also handles concentrated cleaning jobs.
