Brass adapter (garden hose to shower hose)

approx. The product came quickly and corresponds to the description; so recommended seller. I used this adapter to connect the end of an RV spiral garden hose to my Camco RV/Marine Shower Kit hose. It seems to fit just right. Now I can install a shower head suction cup on my RV wall and attach the shower head to it instead of just using the water nozzle that comes with the garden hose.

Pros
  • Price
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.

Beautiful design, attractive brass/gold color

Works great, bright and shiny just like the picture. It's good to have a rubber washer to seal the fittings. I've seen some without a washer relying on a cord to stop the water. It won't work unless a lot of Teflon faucet is used. This works fine. I use mine for a shower valve connected to a hose bib. It goes well with brass and gold fittings. Well made and no leaks.

Pros
  • Impressive
Cons

Leak-proof and superior to other models thanks to the innovative NPTF thread

Fine workmanship, no leakage, ideal for connecting a standard shower head to a garden hose. Includes a washer and NPTF thread so it won't leak without PTFE Teflon tape. I had a hose with a broken tip. I noticed that the tip uses a standard hose connector, so I used that to attach the shower head instead of the tip. This works very well. The GHT (garden hose thread) end has a washer to prevent leakage, the other end has NPTF threads which I prefer over standard NPT. NPT requires PTFE "Teflon"…

Pros
  • Easy to assemble
Cons
  • Something different

Repairing a defective Orbit lawn sprinkler 7800 sqm. ft. Impulse Sled

Several of these sprinklers and all of the inlets failed after 1 year due to thin pot metal construction and dissimilar metals. Removing the old intake can be challenging due to corrosion and the thinness of the metal. Inside the inlet was a fairly large six-sided indentation, too big for most of Allen's chick sets. I found an old screw that fit (not sure what size) and used some bench vices and a bench vise. Be sure to soak the PB Blaster for a few days, otherwise the inlet pipe or sprinkler…

Pros
  • Cool product
Cons
  • Not the best
