Title: Piece of junk
Review: I had a similar experience to J. Preston and John Taylor. I've had a dozen or so of these Gardena hose wands over the last 10 years. They're good for a year or two of year-round gardening in Southern California and the parts are interchangeable which probably gives me a couple of years of use from each one. They're expensive but so convenient to use that I put up with the extra cost. Now the wand has been redesigned with forceful and gentle watering heads. The idea is good but the ends blew off after a couple of weeks. I was able to find the parts and put the head back together the first time it happened. The second time the strainers were lost in the bushes and there was nothing I could do but discard the 36-dollar mistake. Preston's theory about manufacture in China sounds plausible.
