There's not much to this little gadget; it lets you split a spigot (such as one on the outside of your house, or your irrigation line) into two places to hook your hoses to.
Unlike a simple Y-adapter, this one has shutoff valves, which are a necessity in my eyes. The ones on this turn fairly well and they stay put. It's a ball valve, and does not leak when turned off.
The body is metal (aluminum that's been colored black, not painted) with brass threads; I have had much better luck with brass threads (as far as not leaking) than plastic, so this is a good thing.
The only thing is, I wish the top threads (the ones that hook to the spigot) were also brass; they are not -- I believe they're plastic. Still, it doesn't leak there, so I don't have any real complaint. It does allow you to turn the Y at that collar when it's hooked up, which is also nice -- so you can either use it with both facing outward, or with one facing up and the other facing down -- just rotate it at the spigot collar.
