Review on Brushed Gold YDmeet G1/2 3-Way Universal Bathroom System Component Replacement Part Shower Arm Diverter Valve For Handheld And Fixed Spray Head Brass Shower Diverter by Roy Reeves

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Great adapter for adding an extra shower head.

I bought this adapter because the arm on the second showerhead connection is supposed to swivel. This is the only one I have found that offers this nice feature. I think the connector was intended for a hose attachment, but I wanted something to attach a rain-style showerhead.I gave this unit four stars instead of five for two minor reasons:(1) The swiveling piece actually unscrews as it turns, instead of just rotating. It also cannot be placed in a fixed position, as it seems to be intended to move with the weight of whatever it is attached to. I managed to find a position facing downward where it would stay in place, and overall, it seems to work well for my purposes.(2) The second reason is the nut that attaches to the shower bar is incredibly short. I could only see two threads above the washer. I used it anyway, and it doesn't seem to leak, so perhaps short is okay for it.The unit is a high-quality part with no plastic. The knob to change water flows is nice and easy to use. Water seems to flow out of both shower heads with no degradation, so likely does not contain a flow restrictor.

Pros
  • Very easy to install.
Cons
  • May not be durable over time
