My girls like to help me whenever I’m out in the yard watering the garden. They enjoy swaying the hose around, creating rain-like sprinkles in the air, or at times spraying each other with delight. It doesn’t bother me that they try to make the work FUN to do. But although I don’t mind a helpful attitude (and I do encourage this character trait with my kids), there are times when I just need to get things done QUICKLY.

This Solid Brass 2-Way Y Valve Garden Hose Connector from Ohuhu allows me to do just that. It’s a good way to turn my 1 faucet into 2. I happen to have 2 available hoses at home. Once each is connected to one of the two spouts (that’s just my own term for it… but you can call it spigot if you like), I can speed up my work while the girls enjoy their merriment. When I have spare time, I can spray them too and join the fun… why not?!!

This Ohuhu solid brass Y-valve hose connector has 2 separate control switches, which is convenient. That means I can keep the hoses connected, since I can shut off the water flow to the other hose when I only need one of them.

Because it is made of solid brass, I am expecting this to outlast some of the plastic garden accessories that I typically use. I’ve had plastic versions break after exposure to water and sun (and in Texas, it can get pretty hot!). Considering its solid brass composition, I don’t expect this to happen. Hopefully, it’s going to be some time before this connector starts leaking from regular use and water corrosion.

I will keep this post updated once I notice some problems.
