Ratings & Reviews for NIBCO 3/4-in x 1-in Copper Reducing Male Adapter

The casting is a little sloppy

The casting is sloppy other than that it did what I needed it to do

Defective part (fitting)

Purchased two of these. After several solder joints were made and the water turned on, this defective part seeped a small amount around the middle section. It was as if this fitting is made in two parts and pressed together. Anyway it leaked and caused a lot of additional work to remove it and install a new one, which didn't leak. Lowe's took the part back with full refund. I've used several and this is the first time one has been defective. I would try it again if I needed another one, even tho...

Quality made fitting

Good fitting, well made, nice finish, and that is about it.

Misleading product label

The product should have been described as a 1/2" female slip-on connection at one end, as opposed to the 1/2" threaded female connection that had been requested (note that the 3/4" threaded male end was fine). Also, it should be noted that a bronze connector with threaded ends was finally obtained at the Medford, NY store where an in-store pick-up had been arranged.

Review

Excellent, polite, fast, professional, service. Didn't know I could order from Lows so easily.

Cheaper than in store

I soldered this on my dishwasher connection. I happened to notice that it was over $4 in the store and less than $2 online. Needless to say, I bought it online.
