GARDENA (39042-BK) 5-Piece Premium Metal Quick Connect Hose Fittings: Kit for 5/8 Inch or 1/2 Inch Hose - Quickly Connect Garden Hoses, Sprinklers, Spray Nozzles, and Accessories

Got these to try as my Hizelocknones tended to drip a bit. These are very well made and are compatible with Hozelocck. Not even a single drop so far. Job done!!

I've been a long-time user of Gardena's quick connect products, and this set lives up to the brand's reputation. While I typically use the plastic versions, I needed something more heavy-duty for frequent use, and this metal kit fits the bill perfectly. It connects securely, feels solid in hand, and works seamlessly with my existing Gardena setup. Ideal for anyone looking to upgrade their garden hose system with something more rugged and long-lasting. Highly recommended for serious gardeners or anyone tired of flimsy hose connectors.

This kit is a great value vs. buying the connectors individually, even if you only buy it to get the two metal connectors for each end of your garden hose. For what I paid for the entire kit (at present prices), I could only get one of the metal connectors by itself, but here you get both, plus some of the plastic adapters as well. You could easily spend double the money to assemble the entire kit from individual components, so bottom line, this is a fantastic value. In terms of fit and finish, what more can you say but top notch German quality? The entire set is made in Germany (stated on the package) and it shows. Connectors have good heft and do not feel, look or function like the imported garbage, they are the real deal. Puts the box store brass stuff to shame, looks better and works better as well. You can't go wrong with Gardena's premium metal connectors. They are rock solid and will likely be the last ones you ever buy. I will never go back to cheap, big-box garbage connectors after using these, not even their brass versions. These are a cut above and this set is worth every penny. If you're a heavy user or live in an environment where the plastic connectors aren't viable, say in the desert regions of the US, you can purchase metal versions of the plastic parts in this kit from Gardena (and here on Amazon) for a full metal connector system. In my case, it was totally worth it and I wouldn't go back to plastic. Quick disconnect systems for garden hoses are one of those items where you often get what you pay for, and in the case of Gardena, quality is worth the premium. Cry once, buy the best and have no regrets. If you really want to save some money, buy this kit to get five pieces for a little more than the price of one metal connector. Outstanding value!

Buen producto, demasiado de metal, las de plástico funcionarían igual y te ahorrarías, hay en plástico misma marca.

Solid materials and quality. Especially useful when using a wand. The adapter stops water flow as soon as the wand is disconnected; no need to turn off the water at the bib anymore when taking breaks while watering plants!
