Does anyone here use Gardena hose fittings, sprayers, etc.?

I'm attracted to a couple of their frostproof sprayer nozzles but find their product line very confusing. It looks as though to use the sprayer nozzle I will also need a hose-end connector to click it into, but I am not at all sure what to look for or whether it will work with my ordinary garden hose.

Anyone use these products?

curiously,
Bright

I've used many of their hose widgets, only because that's what the big box hardware stores carry. They don't last, the sun kills them, rotting away the plastic.

The company that finally perfects a frostproof, leakproof, sunproof line of hose fittings and sprayer nozzles will get very, very rich.

are supposed to 'link' on with just a push? Well, they don't work for me. It doesn't help that I have had trigger thumb tendon surgeries in both hands, which has weakened my hand strength. Even the brass sprayers seem to degrade fast.
