Review on 🔒 Minimprover Brass 2 Pack: 1/2" Comp x 5/8" OD x 3/8" OD Compression Angle Stop Valve Shut Off – Premium Quality by Bradley Wacks

Shame on the seller (Mini Improver) of this valve! I was specifically looking for a metal handle and the description clearly says "Flexible Metal Handle". That's not true, it's 100% plastic, most likely ABS, although it's chromed. Also, I have my suspicions about the "teflon seats". He heated the soldering iron to 400°F (220°C) and inserted it into the edge of the gasket that was accessible through the outlet. Seal leaks under iron 220C. Most likely it's nylon, but definitely not teflon. 220°C should not dent Teflon with a melting point of 327°C. If you look at this valve under a microscope, the ball is quite rough, much worse than most valves, meaning it's more prone to leaks and wear. Plastic handle, nylon seal, rough surface ball - put this valve on the bottom shelf, not the "premium" valve as advertised. False advertising of gasket materials and grips is just awful! Wasted time but I will most likely order another brand and send it back. Update: I'm back, I had bought x3 packs and they all came back. I have now received an email that I will be charged again in a few days as only one package is being returned. I know I got everything back x3. what a nonsense
