Gilmour Brass Connector High Flow Shut-off Valve Product Reviews

In order for this to work properly for sheeting, you have to go back to the faucet and turn the pressure down until it's almost off. If you take off your nozzle and attempt to sheet water, a powerful jet comes out and is no different from using a spray nozzle. It's okay for switching nozzles, but doesn't save time for sheeting water.

I would agree with other reviews. This devise works well for switching attachments, but prevents a smooth flow when using the sheeting method - it induces just a bit of spray/splatter. Good enough for switching attachments, but it's probably going to end up on the shelf...

The construction is sturdy, with metal pieces that won't break like cheaper plastic alternatives. BUT, it restricts water flow so that you never get a light flood of water out of the hose without an attachment, and "fireman" attachments don't work on their lowest setting either. If you just need to swap accessories, then it's good unless you also need low flow for the "sheeting method".

Great design, works perfectly without leaking, saves alot of time, but make sure you know its heavy, and you cant drop it on anything that will dent, etc.. I have a couple of them now and am glad Detailed Image sells these.

Bought this so I can switch hose attachments without going back and forth to shut off the hose. Works just as it should and is very well made. Only thing was, when I got it it was completely disassembled and had to put it together.

A great connector; made well, positive shut off, allows me to change to whatever I want from the hose without having to go back to the faucet and turn the water off.
I need to buy more of these for the rest of the house outside faucets !

Good Product makes final rinse step easier

Really saves you the hassle of running back and forth to the faucet. I use it with the Gilmour Foamaster II Foam Gun and the whole process is a breeze!

This is a must have item. I sould have bought 2 when they were on sale.

great product! more flow and better foaming of suds from soap from hose attachments! great price great product!!!!!
