I use this product on my boat, where there is a garden hose connection to supply water to the boat while we're at the dock. It was cumbersome to unscrew the garden hose every time we wanted to leave. With this product, it takes literally two seconds, and better still, I don't even have to shut off the water! As soon as you disconnect, the valve shuts the water off automatically. It never drips, or leaks, and I'm impressed with its durability under constant use. Highly recommended.

I really had high hopes for the Claber line of products based on what I've read from other reviewers. I have no qualms with their spray nozzle. But I have a major complaint with their quick connect valve assemblies. The water stop mechanism works so well that even when I connect the spray nozzle onto these quick connect valve no water comes out of the spray. Tried as hard as I might I cannot get this thing to work! I took out the inner valve to figure out what went wrong...now I can't seem to put the mechanism back again. I called their company and the best they could do was try to sent me a replacement quick connect. Well it took several calls and more than a month later quick connect came in the mail .... but it wasn't the right one! I give up! No more Claber products for me :(

2.0 out of 5 stars Restricts flow, July 6, 2009

I only buy 3/4" hoses because I'm on well water. My pressure is fairly high for a well -- 50 - 65 lbs -- as I added a 100 gal tank and cranked up the switch. The Claber quick-connects are only about 5/16" ID. That is less than half the diameter and 3/16 the cross-sectional area of a 3/4" hose.

When you put that restrictor in the line, you will seriously reduce the flow rate. If you have high pressure and a small nozzel on the end it won't matter, but if you need to push a lot of water, better stay away from these flow-restrictor connectors.
