This video saved our marriage. Our hose had been limp & dangling for years and I told my husband to fix it and 5 years later it was still not fixed. I was fed up & at my wit's end so I googled a fix and yours was the first video that popped up. I fixed a 5 year problem in 15 seconds. Saved our marriage. Thank you.
Haha, time to re-brand "FixYourMarriageWithJerry" has a nice ring to it!
Wifey is fed up with my limp dangling hose too!
was sitting beside my sink sobbing because i thought i broke it you saved my life thank you so much
lol. Disaster averted.
If the flow from your sobbing was powerful enough - it could have replaced your sink as long as you drank enough water to stay hydrated - boom problem solved

I thought I had to buy a new sink, but this fixed it. Thanks a bunch, man!
UNFREAKEN BELIEVABLE!
One the mysteries of life solved,
Thank you so much Jerry!
How our species got from the Stone Age to NOW without RUclips and people like you is beyond comprehension.
You're welcome! I'm always curious to know how things work.
Never in a million years would I have thought to look under the sink I tried it it worked Glory Hallelujah . 😊😊✨
Had no idea it was this simple - thank you for the quick and clear explanation, fixed something that had been annoying me for weeks in 30 seconds.
Thank you so much. I don't like plumbing but in this case you made me a hero to my wife in about 1 minute. My weight had a screw on it so just loosen, slide up and tighten. It took longer to move the junk out and back in than to repair. Very grateful for your knowledge.
Glad I could help! Make sure you don't make it look to easy!
Such a simple fix yet I had no idea until I watched this instructional video 😂
Thanks Jerry!
Glad I could help!
Like others here, I had no idea this was so simple. The weight on my new faucet sprayer needed to be moved. I didn't have enough line above the weight. I followed your instructions and all fixed, easy peasy! All the men in the family kept saying "just wait til I can come over, you'll mess it up". Thanks for making this girl a star! Too funny. Thanks again.
Thank you so much! Mine was pulled inside and leaking.
Just fixed in seconds after watching!! Saved my days!
Jerry, you did a very good thing putting this video on for us. After 20 minutes searching internet I only found YOUR instructions for what I would think a common problem with this faucet. Thank you so much!!! Repaired in 2 minutes. For future reference, I have a 3 x 5 card in our kitchen drawer marked "Fix It With Jerry."
That is awesome! I'll try to make some more simple fix videos. Sometimes finding the information is the hardest part!
I just moved into my new home and a new faucet was on my to do list because looking at it hanging just irked my nerves.... This helped me fix it in no time🙌🏽🙌🏽 thank you so much!
Thank you for this video! I never thought it would be so easy to fix, didn't even need my husbands help hahaha
This video just saved me almost $100. I was about to toss the whole faucet never knowing a $10 part from Amazon could save it.
Thank you so much for this video! We rent and to fix a leaky faucet, the landlord had a handyman replace it…which took 10 HOURS and a lot of leaking water 👀. Then it had no water pressure and they replaced it again. Then after a week it was just hanging there and I my husband kept asking me to call them back. It’s a lot of energy to have strangers in your kitchen interrupting your entire day while you chase children, and I think I was traumatized by the 10hour visit from before.
I dragged my feet on calling and looked at it over and over, seeing a clip I thought was meant to be a stop for the hose, and wondering why there was no weight. If I hadn’t found your video, I would never have noticed that the weight had fallen off into a box of steel wool (and the clip was on the hose upside down🤦🏻♀️).
What a quick and simple fix, and now I’m trying not to cry in relief that I don’t have to call the landlord again.
Thank you thank you thank you!
Crazy how the smallest issues can snowball into a whole ordeal. Glad you were able to fix it!
I have been soooo frustrated that my wand wouldn’t retract for YEARS and didn’t want to replace our beautiful and perfectly functional Moen faucet. THANK YOU. Your video saved me 550.00 and a whole lot of heartache for my husband trying to figure out how to replace that a new one.
Glad to hear it! Sometimes it's the simple things that get overlooked.
Thank you so much! I was mad thinking I’ve broke it.
Thank you so much Jerry. You know what I have been living with a loosen hose for more than two months and think of taking a plumber to come to fix at a cost of 300 dollars. Now you saved my day making me laughing weirdly in the kitchen by myself.
Lol, Mission accomplished.
OMG - took 10 seconds to fix! Thanks so much!
Thank you so much for your layman plumber terms for I know nothing about this and I FIXED IT!!! The weight was caught up on some products belie sink and I thought the newer faucet was at fault! So simple! Thank you!!!
@FixItWithJerry .. This exact problem happened last night. After watching 1min of your video & fiddling under the sink for ~15sec, it's all fixed. TYVM.
Awesome!
I pulled too hard and started freaking out. Thank you so much. This helped and no one suspect a thing. This was the only video in the topic I could find, so thank you for that too.👍
Glad I could help!
I really appreciated viewing your video as my sink sprayer stopped retracting as of today 6-20-23. I just learned that it is the weight under the sink (from my cousin that told me), and your video that actully showed me where to look and what it looks like. Tomorrow I'll work on it. Thanks so much.
Great, hope it works out!
Thanks. This is exactly what I needed to see. Practical. Useful. Not complicated. You're awesome.
My husband was huffing and puffing about this for two days. I was able to emasculate him in 10 minutes. Thanks Jerry!!
You just saved me $150 during this pandemic! THANK YOU!!!!
Glad I could help!
Thank you for posting this! We are on day two of school from home and my 5 year old came to me to tell me he “pulled really hard on the sink until it stopped movin” so I feared I would have a huge repair on my hands. I’m so relieved to find that our weight had just slipped out of position. I feel like I’ll be back to your channel again when something else breaks at the hands of my curious kindergartener...
So glad I could help!
Very useful to set back the faucet sprayer
Thank you!! Sending this to my husband now 😂
Simple fix to an annoying problem.
Good stuff, thanks!
Thanks!
Thank you so much for this easy/simple fix, this video saved us a lot of hurt and now we don't have to use money just to have a plumber come out for something so simple 😀
Glad I could help!

Wow! Never knew that thingy on the hose was a weight! You really need to start doing videos again . A lot of women need help out there. Thanks!
Thanks, yes I do. Hard drive crash lost about 50+ videos worth of content and I haven't had the motivation to start over. 😐.
figured mine would be a nightmare like everything i do and my set up was a little different but took maybe 30 seconds, big thanks
Thank you! Mine would not retract starting today on a Friday. And your other suggestion... I will definitely draw this job out. I will call it a 3-4 beer job. :)

Thankyou Jerry ! Really helpful
Thanks. The weight on mine was not the problem. The nut near the fitting at the top started to come loose and was binding the flex hose slightly.
Thank you for this comment!! Same problem and it was driving me crazy!! 5 second fix.
Spent 30 minutes pulling it up and down trying to get the "magnet" to hold....watched this and in 45 seconds it was fixed. Sighhhhhh thanks
Glad I could help!

This is amazing. Bless
Thanks a lot!!
Thank you, this tutorial helped... 🙏🙏
Glad it helped!
Ayy thanks bro
Thanks
😂Fantastic!
My weight did not fall off it’s still in the hose does that mean it just needs to be repositioned?
Very informative for the novice.
Probably, yes. The weight's job is to pull the hose down when you're not using it. Also check that there aren't any obstructions preventing the hose from retracting inside the cabinet. Hope that helps!
Excellent. THANK YOU. WIsh you could help me with my frig.
I have a new sink and this happened, will fix tomorrow
Thank you!!
Nice
what about when it wont slide good? i loosened the weight, squirted graphite lube up and down the metal hose and now it's moving fine. maybe they grease it at the factory but it dries out or something
My hose keeps disconnecting from the copper water line. I tried putting a screw on clamp on it. But since it’s such hard plastic I don’t know if that will work. If it doesn’t what can I do. The old white piece didn’t do that. The new black piece just like yours comes off once a week
There are a few amazon links in my description that will take you to different style weights. Look for the ones that have screws. These will clamp on the hose and screw into place - no chance of them popping off that way! Hope that helps!
These comments 🤦♂️😂 I'm glad you've helped some folks, but jeez... how do you people put your own shoes on in the morning? You didnt bother to even look under the sink?
Meh, cut them some slack, lol. What seems intuitive to people in the industry is a foreign language to others. It's not uncommon and I'm glad I can help people.
Mine as the weight in place but still falls… do you think it’s a magnet that should be in the faucet part?
If it came with a magnet originally but it's not there anymore then, yes, that could be part of the problem. Not all of them have magnets. It's likely that the weight is not in the right position or isn't heavy enough. I never seen two weights installed but I don't see a problem adding one more.
mine keeps getting lassoed on the valves. I have 2 right in the middle of the cabinet. how can I make the hose drop down off to the side after it’s pulled up?
I've seen people use really long screws and standoffs to help guide the hose in a certain direction. (standoffs are a metal sleeves used either in combination with screws or have their own threads). Hope that helps.
Can I just purchase the weight separately??? Or does it have to be the one it came with???
Check out the links I posted. They should be universal weights.
What if the weight is on and still stuck. My hose looks like there is a kink in two places and the sprayer head is the faucet head so the hose runs through the faucet neck. The problem is I think it’s twisted and I don’t know which way to untwist without making it worse, H E L P, sos
It could be twisted inside the faucet head, the weight or hose could be held up on something else under the sink. You could try gently twisting it one way and see if it gets better or worse before going any farther. If it is kinked and permanently damaged you may have to replace the whole thing.
@@fixitwithjerry6161 Thank you so very much you are were very helpful.
