2WAYZ 0° Garden Hose Shut Off Valve - 3/4" Inlet & Outlet Heavy Duty Hose Connector - Full Metal Water Adapter with Large 1.6" Knob - 2.3 x 1.9 x 3.6 Inch Outdoor Fitting (Green and Black)

I was surprised at how much I liked this product. It never occurred to me that such a thing existed, so I never knew what I was missing.Very simply it does exactly what it's supposed to and does it well. It connected to my house spigot easily and with a secure seal on the first try, and the hose attached to the elbow securely and leak-free as well. No leaks and I just used the elbow as it was and no teflon tape or other additions.The shut off valve is smooth and easy to operate. No problems adjusting the water flow from weakest trickle up to full stream, and when it's off it's OFF.My house spigot has the typical style circular metal handle and it was a pain turning that slippery stiff uncomfortable handle, especially when your hands are cold and wet. There was also a whistle that occurred when the water flowed which was not too loud with daytime sounds but at 5am was pretty noticeable. With this Elbow Connector and Valve connected, I turned that stupid handle one last time and guess what, the whistle is gone too.I may update at the end of the summer when I see how it holds up to some wicked elements, but for now I am as pleased and enthusiastic about this product as you can be about a hose thing.A+ product at a good price.2017 edit: In winter 2016/17 the main body of the Elbow split, water everywhere on the side of the house. Evidently I hadn't shut the main spigot completely off during the winter and even without a hard freeze, it was enough to split the Shut-off through temperature swings. Not entirely this product's fault, but the next one I get will be metal.

I like the big knob for hookup. Good quality. I have other connectors from this company

Once the hos and spigget were connected, turned on the water and watched a water flow uninterrupted by kinks. Woo hoo!

Been using this shut off valve for a while now and it's been just as advertised. No leaks and very well made. Would buy again

Perfect for using to fill trailer fresh water tank.

This facet will make watering plants to washing the car to filling the pool a lot easier. The well made facet does a great job directing water away from the house. This makes attaching the hose easier and prevents puddles of water around the faucet and the home’s foundation.

I have 3 oscillating sprinklers, each set up specifically for a certain section of yard, and one hose. The hose has the straight version of a 2wayz on it so I can shutoff the water in my hand, disconnect, and move the hose to the next sprinkler. I had attached a brass shutoff valve (bought at Home Depot) to each sprinkler so I could preset the amount of water flow (gpm) for each sprinkler to cover its yard area (minimizing over or under spray). Seemed to me like a great idea to speed up that chore. The problem was the connector on the brass shutoff valves are smooth (no fins for grip) and the valve sits right next to and angled toward the connector - when attaching the hose to it I'd often bump the valve changing the flow (annoying) and once the hand is wet the connector on the brass valve was nigh impossible to tighten down (resulting in backspray on clothes and in face).Then I found this 2wayz 45 degree adapter/connector/shutoff - It is like it was made by angels! The fins on the connector ENSURE I make a tight connection with the hose (even if my hands are wet). The shut off valve sits facing away from the side I connect to the hose and it is no longer bumped while attaching the hose. This is the way I planned for it to work from the beginning: time saving and consistent.

This product leaked massively as soon as I attached it. The hose bib was a little funky so I tightened it with a wrench. I may have over tightened it and the O ring was pushed through the opening between the nut and the body of the valve. They should have a much larger O ring so this does not happen. Poor design to say the least.

The value worked to my expectation!

Easy to fit and use. My outside tap is closed to my wall and there were lots of splashes on the wall when filling cans etc. this little adaptor keeps the hose away from the wall just far enough to stop the wall getting wet. Well worth it for me

Being able to shut the water off and change nozzles saves a lot of time.Not having to run back and forth to the main shut off saves a lot of time and water.

Had a number of mishaps with the washing machine regarding leaks, piping direction and access. Took a chance and this has sorted them all at the fraction of the cost of having to change the pipe work! Great price also.

Works as I hoped and keeps the hose from kinking when filling my rv tanks. Handy shut-off as well. No leaks yet.
