Type of review

Consider if you have a faucet that is slipping out of the wall. If you do, it might not fit in this thing. You may need foam insulation if the wall is brick or there are gaps around the faucet. I need to add some foam because I have a faucet that sticks out a bit from the wall so I can fit the wall better. The price is cheap, the seller sent quickly. I can't comment on how well they work, this is the first time I've bought them.

Pros
  • Trial period for one year
Cons
  • Little things

Soft foam surrounds the open end to provide a tight seal. Then pull the rubber strip and use the included locking…

That's cool! suitable for rough installations

We bought a house and couldn't find an external shut off valve anywhere! We crawled underground, checked water heaters, everywhere! Out of desperation I bought this thing for the coming winter. Until recently (January 2014) it was too soft to judge. As of yesterday, July 1st, 2014, it was -12 outside. Damn minus twelve! I was sure these faucets would freeze and the pipes would burst. My neighbors have! This morning I removed the lid and reluctantly turned on the faucet, expecting nothing to…
