We bought this wand for the 36" length (wanted to reach a back tier of plants), but after receiving it we liked it so much as a general-purpose hose attachment that we got a 2nd. The spray patterns are surprisingly great. The "shower" mode is pretty much optimal for quickly and gently watering potted plants -- I don't think you could devise anything better. The "mist" mode puts out a very fine mist, the "jet" mode shoots a narrow beam of water a long distance. The "flat" and "fan" modes put out thin sheets of water which are good for efficiently watering narrow rows of plants. The other modes are "flood", "center", "angle", and "cone". I'm not sure why you would ever need "cone" mode, but "flood" mode is useful if you want to fill a watering can without a lot of commotion, etc.The fireman-type lever is easy and effective -- basically you pull the control yoke to the volume setting you want and then it just holds that level -- simple, and no need to keep squeezing it like a pistol grip.
If you use this as a general-purpose hose attachment (like we do) be mindful is that it is indeed 3 feet long, so when you coil up the hose at the end of the day you have this long attachment at the end. We don't mind but something to think about. The other drawback we found is that this thing is an absolute kid-magnet. "Jet" mode is the problem. In full-throttle jet mode you can shoot water onto the roof of a 2-story house, or across the street onto the neighbor's lawn and the wand has a lot of torque in this particular mode. We have had to impose multiple time-outs for unauthorized "watering". This is a fun tool to use.
