Not worth the buy - my new review

As my tests showed, this pipe fitting was a complete waste of money... Despite being advertised as a "straight coupling," it proved difficult to install and ultimately did not properly seal the pipes together. The only pro was its sleek appearance, but that hardly makes up for its lack of functionality. Save yourself the hassle and look for a better option..

Pros
  • Easy to install with no soldering or special tools required
Cons
  • Requires the use of SharkBite fittings which may limit compatibility with other plumbing systems or products

Easy to install and reliable!

This coupling made my job as a plumber so much easier .it worked flawlessly connecting two pipes seamlessly. I appreciate that it's compatible with copper, PEX, and CPVC pipes, making it versatile for any job. My only gripe is that it's a bit pricey compared to other couplings on the market..

Pros
  • Easy to install, reliable
Cons
  • Slightly expensive

Perfect ! A+++ for Pipe, Fittings & Accessories

I am using them on a plumbing project where I was only able to turn off the water supply to the house for a few minutes. Worked like a dream. There for minutes, for life. I have been using ShareBite fittings for many years. Works perfectly!

Pros
  • PROFESSIONAL PREFERENCE: All SharkBite fittings meet the same standards for commercial and residential plumbing applications
Cons
  • Weight
