What is a Lawn Sprinkler? 

A lawn sprinkler is a watering device that automatically sprays water over a designated area. It is commonly used to water lawns, flower beds and larger garden spaces evenly, reducing the need for manual watering.

A spray gun attaches to a hosepipe and allows you to control the flow and pattern of water. Different spray settings make it suitable for a variety of gardening tasks, from gently watering delicate plants to cleaning patios and garden furniture. 

Which Sprinkler should I choose?
