Dramm Rain Watering Wand Colormark 30" Length With 8" Foam Grip Review

The impossibility of having a "retail" watering wand last more than a growing season is what led me to the Dramm brand. I'd bought the cheap ones, bought the fancy ones, bought the ones that said "brass construction" (with hidden plastic insides- which quickly failed). None of them lasted long. For some reason, it infuriates me. I feel like I'm being forced to hand money over repeatedly for something that should be a one-time purchase.

So I pulled up Google, did some obsessive watering wand research, and found this.

First, Dramm is perhaps the most common US brand for nurseries and professionals. I snuck a peek at my local nursery-- yep, she's using Dramms.

Second, these Colormark wands are the top of the line, probably because of the (HEAVY!) all-brass valve at its base. (You can buy the valve itself, alone, for about $15-20). People use them for years and years. Not likely to fail. I found notes online that said that Dramm's plastic valve was prone to breaking after a year or two, like everyone else's, so this model was the one for me. I like the trigger handgrip types a bit better, but I'm willing to give up a little bit of ergonomics for reliability.

Third, should something on this wand fail or get bent or ruined, you can replace just that part; the heads, wands and valves are all sold separately.

Fourth, it's made to water plants with a gentle aerated flow. There's not 17 other silly settings (Water shaped like a Smile! Water shaped like a Vertical Line! Pounding Massage for your Plants! Etc) because they're unnecessary for most gardeners.

I'll come back and report if I have any trouble, but I don't expect to do so.

I'm all about buying Quality once rather than buying Cheap repeatedly. This baby costs less than I've spent on two pieces of junk at the big box stores in the past two years.

Thanks, Dramm! May you live up to your excellent online reputation.
