Review on 🔧 Chrome SharkBite 25558LF 1/2-Inch x 3/8-Inch Dual Compression Outlet Stop Valve with 1/2" Push-to-Connect and 3/8" Dimensions by Jose Guzman

I installed this and recirculated the water to the kitchen sink. I noticed that where the new SharkBite was installed the hot water flow was about 50% of the cold water flow. I spent 2 hours troubleshooting and thankfully read the previous review. So I decided to uninstall SharkBite to check sockets for restrictions. As an aside, removing them from under a cramped kitchen sink is a bear, but that's another story. After uninstalling SharkBite, I checked and saw a limitation with a small hole. I pierced it and removed the shark bite as another reviewer recommended. It looked like hard plastic. I reinstalled and the hot water flow is now 100%. So 2 hours wasted time due to SharkBite's poor quality control. I feel like they owe me and I will take that into account when purchasing SB fittings in the future. I just hope this review saves someone else an hour or two.
