Customer Reviews, including Product Star Ratings help customers to learn more about the product and decide whether it is the right product for them.
To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. Instead, our system considers things like how recent a review is and if the reviewer bought the item on Amazon. It also analyzed reviews to verify trustworthiness.
I purchased this product for my laundry room and installed it yesterday.
I found the installation to be a little awkward because the holes for mounting the valve against the wall are on the ells right behind the valve body containing the lever.
Frankly, I'm worried about leaks in the future because the only thing holding the water back is an O-ring that is compressed between the ell and the body of the valve by a screw. What's worse is this section of the valve can pivot - putting wear and stress on the O-ring seal.
The quality of the casting doesn't seem to be that great either because there were signs of patina/corrosion in the hose fitting threads; and where the O-ring sits, the ell casting looks crooked where it was machined to mate with the body of the valve.
Bottom line, I'm probably going to replace it with a pair of good quality ball valves and no longer worry about leaks. A waste of money...
I've had one of these valves for 28 years. with a quick flip of the lever, both hot and cold water are turned on/off to your washing machine. It's never had a problem.
