After the fact review: I used these braided connectors for my water heater in 2011. The installation was easy and there were no leaks however the interior of the lines failed and contaminated my entire hot water heater and hot water supply to the home with black residue from the inside rubber lining. A plumber alerted me to the issue which he had seen before. I had to replace the water heater in 2017 and used the sharkbite stainless corrugated lines and am hoping to be able to flush my system. This is a warning to anyone thinking of using braided lines: Don't.

5 years old and its shedding black rubber all through the home plumbing. Find another brand or go back to good old copper

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.

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!!
