Review: Very good product very reliable - I purchased the number of these units they work fantastic very easy to hook up and very easy to decouple. Never leak highly recommend Review: Best Quick Connect Fittings — Durable and Easy to Use - I’ve tried a lot of different quick-connect hose fittings over the years, and the GARDENA 5-Piece Quick Connect Hose Fittings are by far the best. They feel extremely well-built, snap into place securely, and don’t leak like many cheaper brands I’ve used in the past. Installation was simple — everything fit perfectly onto my standard 5/8” hose and garden accessories. The locking mechanism is smooth but solid, making it easy to quickly swap between sprinklers, spray nozzles, and other attachments without struggling. What really stands out is the durability. Other quick connects I’ve used tend to crack, leak, or wear out after a season or two, but these GARDENA fittings clearly use better materials and seem built to last much longer. Even after heavy use, they still connect and disconnect smoothly with no signs of wear. I’ll definitely be sticking with GARDENA for all my future garden hose setups. Highly recommended if you want something that actually holds up over time. ## Features - Original GARDENA System hose quick connect fittings: Designed to be quick, reliable and watertight - use as a garden hose connector to tap as well as garden hose quick connect fittings to accessories. - Modular Design: Thanks to the quick connect garden hose fittings, all garden hose accessories with standard North American fittings can be connected to your hose and stay connected and watertight. - Prevent trips to the tap: The garden hose adapter and automatic hose shut off valve, stops water flow instantly, when an accessory is disconnected resuming flow when accessories are connected. - Ergonomic and Innovative: The quick connectors have plastic grooved grip recesses, making them easy to grip even with wet hands, while built in frost protection prevents damage from colder weather - Items delivered: 1x GARDENA Accessory End Quick Connector with Water Stop, 1x GARDENA Tap End Quick Connector, 1x GARDENA Tap adapter, 2x GARDENA Accessory Adapters ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00004SDY5 | | Best Sellers Rank | #106,981 in Patio, Lawn & Garden ( See Top 100 in Patio, Lawn & Garden ) #1,155 in Garden Hose Parts & Connectors | | Brand | Gardena | | Brand Name | Gardena | | Color | Orange, Black, Grey | | Connector Type | Quick-Connect | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 out of 5 stars 2,402 Reviews | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00066283360040, 20066283360044 | | Item Dimensions | 2.38 x 1.38 x 0.1 inches | | Item Type Name | HARDWARE_TUBING | | Item Weight | 0.1 Pounds | | Item dimensions L x W x H | 2.38 x 1.38 x 0.1 inches | | Manufacturer | Gardena | | Manufacturer Part Number | B00004SDY5 | | Manufacturer Warranty Description | One year Warranty | | Material | Plastic | | Material Type | Plastic | | Model Number | 18270-81.000.00 | | Number of Pieces | 5 | | Set Name | 5 Piece Quick Connect Starter Set | | Size | 5 Pack | | UPC | 718472697009 066283360040 | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Gardena - **Material:** Plastic - **Color:** Orange, Black, Grey - **Product Dimensions:** 2.38"L x 1.38"W - **Item Weight:** 1.6 ounces - **Nominal Wall Thickness:** 19 millimeters - **Outside Diameter:** 19 Millimeters - **Item Length:** 1.38 Inches - **UPC:** 718472697009 066283360040 - **Manufacturer:** Gardena ## Images ![GARDENA (18270-81) 5-Piece Quick Connect Hose Fittings: Garden Hose Quick Connect Kit for 5/8 Inch or 1/2 Inch Hose - Quickly Connect Garden Hoses, Sprinklers, Spray Nozzles, and Accessories. - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/716ftC5QCEL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: Why does my Gardena leak from the control box** A: I agree with the other answers listed here. But another way (rather than diver lube) is pipe tape. It is cheap and "fills" in the spacing between the threads. Wind the tape - two or three times around - in the direction that you will be screwing the Gardena adapter on. So to recap - replace washer, check plastic for cracks (on both items), and use pipe tape. **Q: Can I use these on the end of a hose, so I can rapidly swap sprayer nozzles, with other end of the hose attached to spigot as normal?** A: yes, you can BUT shut off your water supply valve before you do, I use a simple on-off, valve on hose end to save steps, rather than walking back and forth **Q: when ad states that is works with 5/8 and 1/2 it's only referring to the connector, not the hose... correct??** A: It is the hose diameter. The most common residential size is 5/8. The diameter determine the flow rate. The connectors will be standard and will fit the hose you have. It's basically saying anything over 5/8 you will not get the higher flow rate or pressure. **Q: Do thsese connectors restrict the water flow? They appear to have a reducer at one end!** A: No, they do not restrict water flow. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very good product very reliable *by J***C on April 30, 2026* I purchased the number of these units they work fantastic very easy to hook up and very easy to decouple.
