Suprised - It Doesn't Leak and Has Good Flow
So, when you get this you will notice this strange, black plastic thing threaded into the base of the handle. It looks like a quick connect to a power washer, so don't toss it out. Grab some pliers and give it a quick turn and you can unthread it.  Make sure to see the black washer. I didn't since it was compressed on top of the black plastic.  Let's say, that without a washer in the handle, you may be very, very underwhelmed by the no-leak capability. Let's say further, that it will spray in every direction and potentially get you soaked.<br /><br />So, after you make sure to have the washer (or your own) in the handle, that attached hose connection does not leak. So, common issue one - a non issue with this product.<br /><br />I typically don't plan out my sprayer purchases and pick up a 5-8 dollar one from THD, Menards or Ace without concern.  They typically last a season and usually have a decent flow.<br /><br />This NT01 is pricier than those 'bin' purchases - about 2 to 3 times as much.  So, is it worth it?  I doubted it, but I like it so far.  I will say that I am underwhelmed with the &#34;soak&#34; setting. It just gushes out as soon as it leaves the nozzle. There is no distance so be prepared as you may be the one to get soaked.<br /><br />The rest of the settings are great and the &#34;flat&#34; shoots across my yard. I've not had that power in a hose/nozzle before and I already cannot wait until next summer when the kids are playing outside. They won't see it coming.<br /><br />In all seriousness, I can give a drink to all my bushes and trees in my front yard without having to unroll the hose.  That's living. Of course, for gentle watering I'll have to get a bit closer and use another setting.<br /><br />I declined the vendor's first offer for a free nozzle to evaluate.  I agreed to the second request and I now admit that the big box store cheap nozzle is not going to be the best.  Luckily, my wife never reads these posts.<br /><br />The company sent a promotional sample for evaluation without promise of a review.
