Great easy diy install
Would RecommendEasy to install, i am a diy homeowner and this was a breeze. My previous one began leaking when i turned the water on. The most difficult part of installing was taking the old one off. I had to take a drill bit to eat away at the old nut. The only thing i do not like is the spraying when i turn off the hose. Overall, good quality

Necessary Small Part - Easy Pickup
Would RecommendThis was a small plumbing part. The pickup locker is easy to use and saves me searching through the store. I sometimes have difficulty walking. So locker and curbside pickup are services that bring me back to Lowe’s time and time again.
