Broke! Insides are plastic.
Please don't let the fact that this nozzle costs a fair bit of money fool you into thinkging that this is an all metal product. See the screw right in the center of the stainless steal spray head? It's attached to a thin plastic core. So, when you twist the outer rim to seat the metal spray head thereby shutting off the water, the relatively thin plastic core is stressed and in short time, snaps. The spray head is then no longer attached to anything, falls out, and water gushes everywhere. It becomes a useless hunk of metal and plastic parts. I am going to try a high strength 'epoxy' repair but I don't hold out much hope. Rather than twisting the rim to shut off the water, you could use one of these; Dramm 12353 Heavy-Duty Brass Shut-Off Valve to do the on off work.
After further consideration: If they made parts available, I'd fix it, put it back in action and appreciate its other, more robust characteristics.
But until they do, I do not think you get what you pay for.
UPDATE: Epoxy doesn't stick to the kind of plastic they used to make the core.
