Review on πŸ”§ Jones-Stephens Company J44-400 4-Inch PVC Socket Saver: Efficient Tool for Repairing 4-Inch PVC Pipes by Leonardo Sandoval

Revainrating 4 out of 5

My drains are back together and not leaking.

So I made a big mistake and put a plumbing tee on the back. Which I later found out is a big NOPE and would not pass inspection. All of my fittings were grouped very tightly. Replacing one fitting meant replacing many other adjacent fittings. It would cost me hundreds of dollars (4 inch stuff ain't cheap). Not to mention the days I worked on it. I bought the thing, cut off the offending hardware and wasted it. In the videos you are watching people are doing it and it looks very easy. And it's easy, but my hole came out a little. rougher than I expected. It left grooves and nicks on the surface. Is it important? The real test is that the connection is tight, right? I glued everything together with more glue than I've ever used. Been together for a few months and still no leaks. Can I recommend this product? Yes of course. What I really recommend is avoiding the need for this tool. But you wouldn't be reading my review if that was an option right now, would you?
