Bought one for our city water hose recently. Scoured several hardware stores looking for a nice heavy duty looking all-brass one. Sounds like an excellent idea but my opinion:
1. You can no longer re-attach the hose ends to store away to prevent water leaking all over or keeping contamination out.
2. Depending on where you use it, the additional length is too much for the city water inlet fitting and the cantilever force pulls down too hard on the inlet fitting. Happens on ours even with one of those right angle hose fittings.
I put it into the drawer in our TT along with a few other gizmos that need a fresh look at again at some point in the future (maybe, sigh).
Funny thing I discovered looking for a brass one, is that some *look* like brass and the real thing but are actually plastic and only LOOK like brass. The weight was the giveaway. First time I've ever seen simulated brass. Only available from Ch*na of course...
