I have owned many, many Mr. Heater products. They have ALL worked very well. If it says Mr. Heater on it, you will be happy with it. This adapter is no different. It works perfectly and I'll buy more when I need them...

This review is from: Mr. Heater Propane Male Throwaway Cylinder Adapter 1-20 Male Throwaway Cylinder Thread X 1/4 Inch Female Pipe Thread #F276140 (Kitchen)

This fitting F276140 is designed VERY DANGEROUSLY, in that it lacks the center sealing sleeve and an o-ring, and relies solely on a thin rubber washer-like seal in the appliance to make a high-pressure seal (all other similar couplers have a center sealing sleeve and an o-ring in the center).

Additionally, in the unit I got the brass sealing surface was scuffed up, and the threads were cut very rough.

Overall, a piece of dangerous junk, especially if used without a flow-limiting device that would activate in case the thin rubber on the appliance side cracks and blows.
