What Customers Are Saying
Customers praise the brass fitting and repair mechanism for effectiveness and simplicity, with most noting the process is straightforward using basic tools like scissors and a screwdriver. Many describe successful repairs on soaker hoses and commercial applications. However, a significant portion report serious problems with the included hose clamps, which frequently fail to seal, strip during tightening, or prove too weak to hold pressure. Despite clamp frustrations, most customers consider the core repair function reliable and cost-effective, though several recommend purchasing replacement clamps separately.

Would RecommendCoupling good, clamps subpar - too narrow and strip easily. Buy better clamps separately. I did try to use the clamps but 3 of 4 (two couplings) stripped, luckily had better clamps on hand. Note: coupling alone worth price even if the clamps suck.

Would RecommendI like everything from Lowe's they have many things for home

Weak clamp
Would Not RecommendHad a tough time getting the clamps open enough to fit around the hose; it seemed like they were too small. Then I tightened them, but one started slipping. There was no way to tighten it well. Both clamps seemed like they were unable to crush the hose against the bib. Weak product.
Ok fix
This product was ok but the second clamp was broken so I had to get another

hose clamps
The hose clamps are not as strong as they should be. Better to purchase additional separately.
