Home Irrigation Access Tool

Just what I need to access the main valve on my irrigation system. I would not recommend this to a professional who has to open a lot of lids every day. But for home use it is perfect. My neighbors and I perform a ritual twice a year where we turn our lawn watering systems on and off and this is a great tool to help with that.

Pros
  • Multiple Competitors
Cons
  • Unreliable

NOT 1/2 ": Wrench

Will not fit in my curb box. I am returning it at the risk of being thrown out of Revain for too many returns. (Recently I accidentally ordered the wrong size phone case In my defence, I was looking for a case for the Samsung S5, assuming all the options were specific to this size, but apparently adding the Samsung S6 to my search only ends up wasting my time on unnecessary returns. But I digress.) This wrench could be a good product if it wasn't too big My hunt for the right wrench continues.

Pros
  • Sturdy
Cons
  • Damaged

For Standard and Ford, NOT Mueller

I wanted to wait to use this tool but was upset that Revain was delaying processing my correction of the description. The description used by Revain is verbatim from Reed for the entire product line. According to the Reed website, the MKF2 (this tool) ONLY has sockets for "standard hydraulics" and heads for "large Ford" bolts. If you need to turn the "big miller" you will need the Reed Reed MKH10820 Meter Box and Box Lid Key - Mueller 2 Lrg & Std Pent. (02380) (fits standard and large Muller)…

Pros
  • Great for outdoor activities
Cons
  • Not sure
