I am unsure why, but the nozzle I have will not stay attached to this particular hose and will very unexpectedly shoot off during use. It comes off as one piece (like in the first photo) - including the black hose connector - so I know it's not the quick-release failing.
I've tried trimming off a good portion of the hose, as well as wrapping tape around it to make it thicker & give the head something to clamp onto - but neither seems to work.
Any advice? I would very much prefer not to replace the hose - as it is a mounted retractable one, and there isn't anything else wrong with it. Happy to replace the nozzle if need be -> but I'm unsure what to look for to make sure the next one doesn't have the same problem!
I live in an area where all of our hoses must have a trigger nozzle attached, and also it makes it much easier to water my many plants, so I'm hoping to get this fixed soon!
