“Not what I thought it was and I have 2 spars already, now have 4 of them.I was after a fitting that's 155mm long, green & yellow with adjustable water flowthat you screw the wand on one end & fitting to disconnect on the other end.Originally I purchased 2 of these, one short wand, one long wand, & one of theseblew apart.I coulden;t find this part any where in cataloge, maybe not avalable any more.I know I can still regulate water flow from end of hose fitting.Handle was more convenient. Not to worry I have plentey of spares.”

“I need the control of flow but that yellow lever is rubbish. They deteriorate in the sun within a year to 18 months. I am on my third one. Get it UV stabilised please. It would cost you peanuts.”
“This is a very good product, apart from the Actuation lever, I have had to replace 2 of these as the Actuation Handle seems to suffer from UV exposure, On Both units, the yellow handle has snapped. The actuation handle needs to be made of a more robust material.”
“This is a very handy and brilliant bit of kit. To be able to stop the water away from the tap is gold. It's easy to change out what's connected for a different one. Awesome. Tip: make sure you get the hose tight in the fitting.”
“Idea is great, but as so many people have said, for so long now, the flow control lever is plastic, low quality and not made for Aussie harsh conditions. Have now bought them twice, as they keep degrading and breaking. Mine is connected to the hoselink retractable line, and is only used over grass areas, so its never been dropped on hard surfaces. Come on hoselink, time to listen and design an ally/stainless lever, or go for a better UV stabilized option.”
Hi Ian,Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We are sorry to hear that the fitting was UV affected. The Green section of the fitting is UV stabilised. We did have an issue with the levers breaking down but have rectified this by changing the material and increasing the UV resistance. We also have the levers available as a separate spare part. If you can please get in contact our friendly Customer Service Team at hoselink@hoselink.com.au or over the phone on 1300 90 617 they will be happy to help with this.Kind Regards,The Hoselink Team
