Review on STYDDI Brass Garden Hose Repair Kit With Clamps - Male And Female Hose Connectors For 5/8" And 3/4" Rubber Hoses - 4 Piece Set by Shafiq Wang

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Good Quality hose repair parts.with one exception

Overall these are good quality hose repair parts. The BIG drawback are the included clamps. the clamps included with this kit are simply inadequate for the intended use. The "nut" on the clamps is some obscure metric size. that doesn't have an exact fit within a typical metric socket set, and having a slotted screw head in this type of application is pretty useless. I either broke or stripped ALL of the included clamps with the first hose repair I attempted. (with higher hose/water pressure, it's necessary to use a 1/4" impact driver to tighten these type of clamps on garden hose applications.) The seller needs to either improve the quality of the included clamps, or sell the parts without clamps. I ended up going to Home Depot and purchasing a bag (10) hose clamps (with a 5/16" nut/screw head) and those worked great. I can't help but feel that I paid for parts that were unusable, which is why I rated this kit as only "OK" with 3 stars.

Pros
  • I purchased to resell to my landscapers and greenhouse customers to fix hoses.
Cons
  • Brass components may tarnish over time
