Looks really good and the inspector liked it.
I replaced a really crap backflow on my irrigation that didn't meet local code (PVB, has to be 18" above highest outlet and it was actually lower). I have to get it inspected annually and I was worried the guys would screw it up since everyone around me has the crappy PVB instead of RP, but the guy actually really liked that my test ports were quality and functional and asked for this listing to start buying them for new installs as an upsell.

Best buy Ever
Backflow installers this is your best buy and the same brand you'd get from any supplier.

High quality back flow preventer
Well made and meets "Lead Free" code requirements. Easy to install, if you are replacing the same unit and a union was installed.

Don't let it freeze
Have use this type of backflow preventer for a number of years. Always tests out great. I use it for irrigation water from a fire hydrant. Left it in the garden shed one winter. That was a mistake. The residual water in the valve froze. Rebuilding it would cost more than buying a new one. Don't let it freeze and this valve should provide years of service.

Pricey, but it works
Everything related to homes is WAY up in price right now, and plumbing is no different. Still, with shipping and Amazon points, this was the best deal I saw. The product itself is fine...an exact duplicate of the 16yo assembly that ruptured last winter. Probably three times now what it cost then. I cut the tubes mid-way at each side, removed the elbow fittings, put them on the new assembly, and used Sharkbite connectors as you can see. The most difficult part was getting the elbows off and back on again in the correct alignment. A new heat cord before winter and, hopefully, I don't have to mess with this again for awhile.

Was easy to replace. Was back up and running in about an hour.
I was able to replace my cracked one with this is about an hour and that included having to shut off the water and drain the line, find my Teflon tape and monkey wrench and such. Pretty easy.

Excellent Quality
Another example of the adage " You get what you pay for" . This is a high quality RPP type backflow prevention device. It passed inspection, testing and certification for our water district, which will require test certification annually from now on. I'm going to wrap it and cover it with a fake rock to protect from the elements, but probably unnecessary in our mild climate. It is turn-key with all of the test ports and valves on each end, only requires riser and connection. Highly recommended, another problem solved.

Soft handle stops but works well and cheaper to replace than the rebuild kit
Works great and at a much better price than the local supply house take care as the handles are soft and the stop is easily bent
