Pros & Cons
Pros
Simple but effective way of isolating the flow of water in your garden hose.
Those days are practically over. These things work a treat! Would not be without this now. Like it.
Cons
Much more than a dribble, totally unusable. The joint just leaks profusely. Better to spend the extra and get either a hozelock or gardena accessory.
The plastic teeth that should grip the hose are ineffectual. I use it in a syphon system, and you could hear a hiss as air seeped in and stopped the flow.
Highlights
Quality
The units were smaller than i anticipated allowing them to blend nicely with the landscaping
I dont need to go out with the victor solar spike anymore
Quality strong connector hose will last for a long time happy
I was really doubtful it would work but i must admit im really impressed
Packaging/appearance
They are quick to use simply remove from the packaging remove the protective plastic place it in the ground and turn it on

Great to have just before the end of the hose pipe so you can turn the water off with out having to go back to the tap when you want to change ends or move a garden spray
