Review on OATEY Quiet 38600 Absorber Copper by Aaron Charlton

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Made in the USA? LAUGH OUT LOUD. No, made in CHINA

Both hydraulic shock absorbers I bought did not close. I tried everything I could think of. I used thread tape, silicone gel on washers. Not good. Also, please note that the product image is not what you will receive. Same model number, that's all. The image you see in the ad shows a much larger cavity used to absorb hammer blows. The picture also says "MADE IN USA". No, made in CHINA. Look at the photo of what I received and compare for yourself.

Pros
  • An absolute legend
Cons
  • Some difficulties
