Xiny Tool90 Degree Garden Hose Adapter with Shut Off Valves, 3/4" Solid Brass Garden Hose Elbow Connector with 2 Extra Pressure Washers

Worked perfectly for our super awkward spigot placement. No leaning and easy to connect! I didn’t even need my husband’s help!

Seems to be well made and fit perfectly. Only time will tell as to the longevity of the valve. Most start leaking around the ball and seat after about one year. May submit another review if this one starts leaking sooner.

The only issue is it is a little hard to move the lever off of the closed position. But easy to move once you do.

This brass 90⁰ w/shutoff from Xiny Tools works perfectly for the purpose intended. It's so nicely made that I gave it to Sherry as a birthday gift. The valve works quite easily and smoothly. Sorry about my cat's ear in the picture.

Due to hose bib being too low to ground, I figured a 90 would make life a bit easier to connect the hose. Actually decided to connect a timer which would not have allowed hose to connect at all due to the lack of height from ground, so this elbow allowed mounting the timer horizontally. I don’t need the valve but it might be handy in the future. I chose this out of those that comes as a single item simply due to low price and fast delivery. Right off the fitting feels solid, but I found the female threaded connector refused to completely seal, it constantly weeped. Part of the problem I believe is the long length of the threads, which is good for most applications since it insures a good solid connection. But, at least for my spigot which has a short length of threads, it’s harder to get a thick enough washer that will seal.. The first washer appeared thick enough, but was very soft and failed immediately, cut by the pressure against the spigot edge, so I tried a second somewhat thicker washer that happened to be included and it nearly sealed, still a slow weep. On a positive note, the valve part appears to seal well. Also the male end tightens up well for the hose connection. In my case, the fitting would be easier to tighten if female swivel had a hex shape to use an open end wrench. The two ears are a bit of a minor irritation, need to use a pair of channel locks set at the right opening to snag the ears so it can be fully tightened. My hands just are not strong enough to hand tighten. Later today I’ll try 2 washers on the female end to see if I can get it to seal completely. My hose seals well which I can see has 2 washers. I expect it’s just a matter of getting the right washer so it seals.Update: I found problem is the thin narrow edge on the sealing face of my spigot nozzle. I found the washer was actually pushed up inside the spigot so not even sealing. I added a tough nylon washer outboard of a new rubber washer (they include a few extra) so it will hit against spigot sealing edge and not collapse inside the spigot. It works, fully sealed now. No weeping. The small ball valve does have a reduced diameter but it does not affect my needs for attaching the sprinkler which I normally throttle. So for first few days now, it’s sealed, not leaking anywhere and the timer fits well on the horizontal and also sealed easily on the male end of this fitting.
