Watering wand recommendation

Post by xgenshinx »

Hey all!

In the market for a decent watering wand. Getting a few more trees in pots now and the old watering cans can be a bit average to use at times particularly with trying to avoid washing away fertiliser and the top layer of soil.

I've noted a few different kinds of watering wands (kaneshin, Dramm, bunnings stuff) and wondered if anyone could help with recommendations? Probably looking at spending $50-$75.

Regards,
Jon

Hi Jon
I bought a Neta wand from ebay - it is sort of a Dramm knock off. The heads are the same thread and the trigger can be locked in position. I was so impressed I bought 2 of them. Now that Dramm don't do a lifetime warranty they are not worth buying anymore :2c:
