Good quality and looks great
Very easy to install however you need either a hole saw or blade drill bits. Careful to ensure the correct diameter. Seal is good. Had it for a few moths with no leaks. My wife loves to look compared to other styles. Great value for the money

Not impressed
Cut the hole and very easy to install but the white o ring squeezes out and thus leaks. Hopefully there is a solution

Use Teflon tape when installing
I purchased 2 of these to add to the barrels I store my RO/DI water for my reef tank. It was Easy to install after I drilled the holes in the barrels. The bulkheads are of very high quality and so is the spigot. My only advice is to not rely on the o ring that provided. I found that if you over tightened it the o-ring became deformed. To take care of this I added a generous amount of Teflon tape. This made the connection between the spigot and the bulkhead water tight.

Easy to install, slow flow though
I installed this on the side of a 40 gallon tote that holds RO/DI water for a fish tank. Install was easy if you have a drill and it does not leak. The lever is a little stiff bud doesn’t create an issue. The water flow out of this nozzle is slower than I’d like it to be. Takes about 2-3 minutes or so to fill up a 5 gallon bucket.

Works great with one problem
Used it to make a giant bathtub for my 2 year old. He loves it and it works great. Only problem is the o.ring is ill fitting and should be replaced or will leak.
