Rated 1 out of 5 by from Rubber failed I'm a contractor who installed these with new water heater in 2008 in our home. Over the last year there started to be black chunks and residue in the tub water. They would smear and coated the tub at water level. We've been showering, bathing in and cooking with whatever residue and contaminates are included in this. This is a health concern.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Black gunk in my tub Installed by contractor. Six months later black gunk comes out into the tub only when the hot water is on. The rubber lining in the hose broke down. The black gunk looks powdery and floats on water. It sticks to the side of the tub forming a ring around the water level smears on the side of the tub when you wipe it.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Hot Water Heater supply connectors - Don't Buy! Unfortunately, the chlorine in your water will deteriorate the rubber lining inside the flex hoses after a year or two. Within two years, I had rubber flecks inside a new hot water tank and coming out my bath tub faucet. These cause a problem in plugging up faucet aerators and washing machine supply valves... we had to have a new supply valve installed in our washing machine. I replaced the flex hoses with copper pipe and the problem went away. This has happened to quite a few others...just do an internet search. SharkBite should take this type off the market!

Rated 1 out of 5 by from black pieces flow out of hot water my bath tab hot water comes with black rubber pieces, and after long time diagnosis, the only possible explanation is that the black rubber pieces come from the Shark bite water heater connector

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Best plumbing product I've used... Had to change out a water heater this weekend and of course, none of the water connections lined up. I didn't really have time to rebuild all the copper and sweat all those connections so I thought I would give these a try, simplest, most effective product I've used on a plumbing project... test fit, cut pipe, sanded burrs and slipped right into place. No leaks... amazing!!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Easy install, no leaks, quality product !! I used 2 11'' flex hoses and a in line ball valve on my new hot water tank install and it made what might have been a tough job very easy
