Rainbird 5000plus VS PGP

There is about a $2 difference between the 5000+ and the PGP. The difference for my entire project will be less then $50.

Should I save the money and go with the PGP?


Are the Rainbird "RainCurtain" nozzles better then the Hunter nozzles?

I am interested in using Low Angle nozzles on some of my heads and they come with the 5000+, but I could purchase the heads that I need for the PGPs.

The 5000+ has more features for a contractor than for you! I dont happen to like them, id rather the PGP anyda, but yes the Raincurtain nozzles are AMAZING!!!! The PGP waters find though, with no wet or dry, rainbird just took the PGP, caleld it the 5000, mixed in a little I-20 popped in a raincurtain nozzle, and put it on the market. Yes you will have to buy the low angle nozzles, but its worth it for the PGP. The PGP will definatly last longer
