The best-selling brass impact head for medium-to-large lawns. All-metal construction throws water 20-41 ft in a full or part circle, holds up in wind, and adjusts to water right up to an edge without wasting it on the driveway. Remember to budget for a spike or tripod, since the head is sold on its own.

Pros

  • Brass and bronze internals resist wear and cut through wind far better than a plastic oscillator
  • Long 20-41 ft throw and 50 ft spacing cover big open lawns with fewer moves
  • Part-circle setting waters right up to a fence or driveway without soaking the pavement

Cons

  • Ships as a head only, so you must add a spike, tripod or riser to actually use it
  • The pulsing arm is louder and can leave a slightly less even pattern than an oscillating sprinkler on a small square lawn
  • Needs decent water pressure to reach its full radius; low-pressure supplies fall short
