Quality


Works great, easy to install, and the only thing that prevents my barracuda suction from staying in place.


Appears to be very durable and replaces 20-year old fitting that finally broke.


It is clearly designed this way as there is a built-in slot on the cover for a screwdriver.


There are enough reviews that address this that it's obviously a manufacturing defect.

Price


Guess i'll be buying a cheaper, after market one and disputing the charge with my credit card.


However for what it is - its simply just way over priced like all pool items.


These were a tad cheaper than buying thru pool service and were exactly same.

Shipping


Received next day and put in within minutes.


Contacted seller and they immediately sent another.

    A strap wrench may be required to install to not mar the fitting
