Quality


I am very pleased with a product that works perfectly and was super easy to install


I had been getting by with the damaged threads of my male hose end where my female hose sprayer attachment wouldnt fit securely...  Read More


The hose barb needs to snug and for 34” i doubt it would be tight enough maybe with a hose clamp but doubtful with the included clamp

Packaging/appearance


I have used the melnor hose repair unit for years to repair both 38 and 12 soaker hoses even using the same unit multiple times

Competitiveness


I cut off the damaged male threads and easily installed the new melnor male thread end piece


So less than stellar reviews made me pause a bit but for the low price i figured it’s worth a try

    Now since it is the same size as the hose i put a small amount of grease on it and got it started in the hose where i had cut it

    I then took a rubber mallet and pounded it down in the hose until it was all the way in

    The clamp is a very tight fit so you alternate adjusting the screw until they are snug


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    My hose was somewhat heavy duty but not contractor grade

    Then place the end of the hose into a jar or hot water for about 30 seconds

    Old brass original fitting started leaking between threaded section and crimped on ferrule

    So less than stellar reviews made me pause a bit but for the low price i figured it’s worth a try


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    As good as it is for 58” hose i definitely would not recommend this for 34” hoses
