 Lasts a while, then it's downhill from there July 26, 2007

We bought this for our yard about three years ago. For the first year of use it worked quite well. It's quite ergonomically friendly, particularly the switches on the outlets and the plastic-encased brass nozzle attachment. It worked very well. However, as the gray main body of the "Y" is plastic, over time mechanical and possibly temperature-related wear-and-tear cause the gray plastic to break, slowly introducing leaks that eventually degraded the overall function of the unit. It took just over two years. I should say that we did leave it outdoors in a Michigan winter, and that may be part of what went wrong. Others may have better experiences than I.
The product is great but... August 19, 2005

I purchased one of these adapters at my local hardware store and the product is great! It's easy to use, doesn't leak, is highly visible and the only downside that I had with it was the price tag (13.99 + tax) at the local store.
I got online did my research and found that Amazon was offering them at the cheapest price anywhere @ 10.99 so I ordered 4 of them on June 27th 2005 and it is now August 19th and I just recieved my fourth delay message. They are "expecting" that I should recieve them in early September but it has honestly become a joke in my home as to when\if they will actually arrive.
Nelson gets kudos on thier product...
Good Design, cheap parts used for production. Doesn't last. July 26, 2007

I have purchased several of these adapters. I run my hose off of one side and the other feeds my drip irrigation systems.
The unit is reliably safe to use for only ONE season.
Parts that have failed:
Interior ball valves:
--over time won't shut completely
Plastic valve handles:
--after a few months they become brittle and prone to break.
Black "rubber" hose:
--does not handle pressure. After a few weeks of use, when I turn off the valve at the end of the hose the black hose back on this unit starts to balloon. Eventually it fatigues and bursts.
I like the design of this product but it seems that the use of cheap Chinese components have failed the designers. I expected more for my $20 purchase price.
 great item but received damaged February 23, 2008
Elizabeth M. Cooke (South Carolina United States)
The sellers contacted me immediately to make sure I received the package and was satisfied. I said I hadn't assembled the products, but they arrived quickly and looked like good quality and they should be great. BUT when I tried to attach the hose, I realized the hose adapter with 2 outlets had been damaged and the threads were bent and compressed. It will not accept a hose. I immediately e mailed them, and then later sent a second e mail. No response to either. It had to have been dropped on concrete to have been damaged this way. No concrete here. Good item, poor service............
Works well, but poor quality and didn't last July 17, 2008

This is the second summer I've used this product. It worked great the first year, but after about a month of use this summer the metal hose connectors on the outlets both cracked, and the thing is now useless. I've taken proper care of the adapter, and our water isn't corrosive, so it looks like the problem is just due to the very thin brass Nelson used for the connectors.
