The wife used those trigger-style nozzles and hated them.
Her main problem, she said, was they are difficult to set at
a certain stream, and then just leave it there (she often
walks away from the hose as it slowly waters plants).

So, we threw away all our trigger ones (even those very
expensive sets from Costco which had quick connects - which
turned out, for us, to be a waste of money).
