Universal Tap Connector Adapter Mixer Kitchen Garden Hose Pipe Joiner Fitting-BL

My garden hose is connected to rainwater collection system. Unfortunately, recently the water pressure dropped to barely a trickle meaning I couldn't use the hose to wash my motorbike. I was quoted £200 to get a replacement water pump for the system, not including installation. Which is where this adapter comes in. It allows me to connect the garden hose to the kitchen tap and have full functionality. It does means I need to bring the garden hose into the kitchen, but I can feed it through the kitchen window out front to wash the bike very easily and it is not that much of an inconvenience. It is super easy to attach the kitchen tap and while there is a little bit of water drippage into the sink, it is very secure and there is no fear of it coming loose and spraying water all over the place. Very happy with the purchase and it saved me a boat load of money too.

Excellent product

I read the somewhat mixed reviews on this...and how it has damaged taps etc. This wasnt really an issue for me because my taps are old anyway. The device doesnt fit all taps...wouldlnt go on my bathroom taps, but fitted fine on the kitchen ones. The key is to get the white washer FLUSH on your tap to prevent leaks...and not to tighten it too much...a little trial and error is the way to go. I need it to water my patio plants and it works fine. Its a cheap product and therefore I`d say good value. I`d Recommend

Exactly what I was looking for. After switching taps, the hoselock tightening one didn’t fit on my shallow end taps. I found this and i’m so happy I did. £8.99 and free delivery. Super easy to use and the pressure is exactly the same. Sturdy when on the tap and with a hose attached, not one drop from a leak. Such a perfect fit. 10/10 recommend if your taps are shallow like mine.

I bought this item because I was assured by the Amazon robot that it would fit our average-size bathroom basin taps. It doesn't. When fully screwed up, this device falls about a quarter of an inch short of where it needs to be to touch the spout of the tap. I will not be returning the gadget, though, as it does fit our kitchen mixer tap.

I have a water-bed and I wanted a simple way to connect a hose to one of the bathroom taps, for topping up the bed from time to time. I have an old adaptor with a frame that fits over the tap like this one does, but it has a threaded rod that screws down to push on the top of the tap-spout (like a cider-press). It is only a small diameter and if the tap spout is not flat, it was difficult to get it mounted firmly and without leaking. It has a soft-rubber seal that mates up against the water outlet on the underside of the tap, and over time this has become cut and distorted, and does not seal well. This new adaptor has been excellent. I have been able to use it successfully on taps both with a flat top to the spout and a curved top. To install it, first back-out the lower section that has the hose quick connect, and lift the orange flap. Then slide the adaptor over your tap and screw the lower section in until the whit seal is lightly touching the water outlet on the lower side of the tap. Lower the orange flap. And screw the lower section in a little tighter. I tested it quickly by turning on the tap before attaching the hose. If it leaks at this stage, turn off the tap. Lift the orange flap, and tighten the lower section 1/8 of a turn more. At the same time look closely at how the white seal is aligned to the underside of the spout, make sure it is flush. Lower the flap. I have found this to be quick and simple to do. It has taken me much longer to write this than to actually do it and get a good seal. Note: I have seen some other reviews mention that they crushed their tap with this device. I can see how that could happen if you tighten the lower section against the tap to the maximum that you possible can, and THEN lower the flap - the leverage via the cam could be enough to crush the tap. It does NOT need to be tightened so much (mind you, some cheap modern taps are quite thin and fragile). If you are seeing leaks, look at the alignment and do not blindly tighten the adaptor. Once you have finished, and closed the tap, lift the flap and back off the lower section 1/4 to 1/2 a turn. I am very happy with this adaptor. Edit 19 April 2020: I have used this adaptor now almost 10 times. After the first two, I can now get this on a tap and aligned so that it does not leak, at the first attempt. Still very happy with it.

Great tool
