Review on ๐Ÿ”ง Versatile Frizzlife Brass Feed Water Adapter for RO Filters, Coffee Brewers & Ice Makers - 3/8 inch, 3/8 inch Comp and 1/4 inch OD Compression Angle Stop Valve Adapter by Scott Hall

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Very nice looks, sturdy BUT impossible to install safely

After reading some of the negative reviews about metal breakage I was amazed to see how durable this adapter looks. Also, the Watts water filter connects easily to the 1/4" connection. The section that screws into the faucet nut looks well made as pictured and is 9mm long which is very good. BIG issue: The length of the Thread in the nut is only 5.8mm To my liking this cut is pretty tight, especially when the threads on the pipe it connects to don't go all the way, but to make matters worse they stock it with a 3mm rubber spacer which effectively means there is less than 3mm of thread left in the nut.You can see in the attached picture the connection therefore looks very questionable and major water contamination seems imminent.I have the valve operation untested but this part is going back to revain which is unfortunate because if this could be fixed it would look like a very good adapter.

Pros
  • Comfortable to use
Cons
  • Not trendy
