Product review (5 stars): Third time was a CHARM!
I purchased 2 of the cheaper plastic ones you find in any hardware store USA and they both leaked instantly. The Braided styles were too pricey which is why I chose the cheaper versions. I turned to Amazon as I often do and gave this one a shot. The price cannot be beat and it works like a charm. Even on my defective washer hook-up that is missing a couple of threads!
