It is currently on sale for \u00a324.99* (RRP \u00a339.99*).<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-12628\" src=\"https:\/\/gardeningregisterblog.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/DSCN1497.jpg\" alt=\"DSCN1497\" width=\"200\" height=\"150\"\/>Delivery and Packaging<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The spray\u00a0arrived the day after I ordered it and it was well protected in several layers of bubblewrap.<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline\">Preparation<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>There wasn&#8217;t much to prepare this product; I just removed it from the plastic and cardboard packaging and clicked it onto the end of the hose! Simple!!<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-12630 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/gardeningregisterblog.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/DSCN1499.jpg\" alt=\"DSCN1499\" width=\"200\" height=\"150\"\/>Testing<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The Flexi Spray consists of a gun-type handle, a long, tough\u00a0shaft\u00a0and the spray head.<\/p>\n<p>The handle has a knob to adjust the flow of water from 100% to 50% to help save water as well as a lock to enable to spray to sit by itself and keep watering.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-12634\" src=\"https:\/\/gardeningregisterblog.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/IMG_20140709_154419832.jpg\" alt=\"IMG_20140709_154419832\" width=\"200\" height=\"356\"\/>The head end of the spray rotates to one of four different settings. The first makes the water flow like a normal tap, the second is a strong, thin blast of water which could be used for reaching areas further away or for cleaning the car or patio, the third is a soft flow of water which is ideal for watering more delicate plants. The final setting is for using the spray standing up and acts like a sprinkler, covering an area of approximately 69 square metres (according to the packaging).<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-12633 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/gardeningregisterblog.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/DSCN1502.jpg\" alt=\"DSCN1502\" width=\"200\" height=\"267\"\/>I first of all bent the shaft into a shape which meant it would stand up by itself or resting against the pots. I found it quite hard work but once it is in the correct shape it doesn&#8217;t move but I will be able to bend it to another shape if needed.<\/p>\n<p>Once shaped I set the spray to Sprinkler and placed it between the pots I wanted watering, having locked it in place I turned on the tap and my pots were happily watered while I went and had a cup of tea.<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline\">Summary<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This Flexi Spray couldn&#8217;t be easier to use and it will save me quite a bit of time during hot, dry conditions.<\/p>\n<p><strong style=\"line-height: 1.5em\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline\">What comes in the Pack<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Multi Setting Flexible Spray Gun<\/li>\n<li>Plastic holder to attach to the wall for easy storage<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline\"><strong>More Details<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Flow control and 3 stage variable trigger<\/li>\n<li>4 spray patterns<\/li>\n<li>Rose for gentle watering<\/li>\n<li>Jet for high power cleaning<\/li>\n<li>Fast fill for filling watering cans or buckets<\/li>\n<li>Sprinkler for your lawn<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>You may have seen my recent review about finding easier ways to keep my patio pots and containers watered (https:\/\/gardeningregisterblog.co.uk\/index.php\/hozelock-spiral-hose-set-review). \u00a0I came across a sprial hose which has turned out to be a great buy but I wanted something I could leave running for a short amount of time to help with my larger pots [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6901],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-12625","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","6":"category-product-reviews-reviews","7":"czr-hentry"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/gardeningregisterblog.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12625","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/gardeningregisterblog.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/gardeningregisterblog.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gardeningregisterblog.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gardeningregisterblog.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=12625"}],"version-history":[{"count":12,"href":"https:\/\/gardeningregisterblog.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12625\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":15810,"href":"https:\/\/gardeningregisterblog.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12625\/revisions\/15810"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/gardeningregisterblog.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=12625"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gardeningregisterblog.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=12625"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gardeningregisterblog.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=12625"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
