What does everyone use? Ive been through about 3 or 4 nozzles trying to find something I like that will put out alot of water and fairly small.



How to Wash Your Car (ShowCar style!) (http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=7598756069207401372&q=show+car+style&total=474&start=0&num=10&so=0&type=search&plindex=0)



Im looking for something similar to this. I think autopia-carcare has one listed for 29.99. Is it any good?



Ultimate Stainless Steel Hose Nozzle (http://www.autopia-carcare.com/bai-hn-10c.html)



Autogeek has one as well but 10 dollars less.





Any ideas?

If you go to your local Target, Rite-Aid, Walmart, or whatever in the garden section they ought to have a fireman style hose.

Go to Sears and get the Craftsman Nozzle...it is made by Bonaire and is lifetime warrantied...and I believe they are 19.99 and end of season clearance is even cheaper...

I did buy one at lowes for like 13 bucks or something and its by glimour and its a fireman style but it sucks soooo bad. I get myself more wet than anything else.

I`m with AL-53, I bought mine this spring for $19.99 and works great. Plus if anything ever goes wrong just walk into sears and get a new one. I also picked up one of their black rubber hoses with a lifetime warranty.

Check the sears website and it says the item has been removed/discontinued so ill stop by the store today and see what they have.

I bought my "fireman nozzle" from wal-mart... I think it was about $6



Of course, its not solid brass or whatnot like these linked nozzles, but it does the job. Regardless, I just find myself using the gun-style nozzle more often.

home depot also sells the fireman hose nozzle by the Orbit brand (most all their products have a 6 year warranty)... :up

I was watching The Sopranos the other night and Carmela`s dad was hosing off the drive way with that nozzle and I was thinking to myself I wonder where he got that.

yeah i`ve seen it on-line at like garden supply stores too, so it`s not exclusive to brookstone. the thing really does work great though. the low pressure setting works great for sheeting during rinse
