Tools and Hardware Reviews of Claber 8583 Koala Indoor Faucet to Garden Hose Connector

Customer Review: Will not fit most indoor faucets
Summary: 1 Stars

I tried it on all 5 of my indoor faucets. Directions were non-existant and, while some claim it is intuitive, it's not really. Once I got some further instruction I figured out that ut will not work on the vast majority of sink faucets. The faucet must be narrow enough (max about 1 inch) to fit into the adapter. So fancy wider faucet casings won't work. And the bend in the faucet must be less than about an inch max (bend to spout). There must be a bend in the faucet of 90 degrees or less. Claims to fit most...I would guess it would fit very few.

Customer Review: it didn't work in any of my faucets
Summary: 3 Stars

It seems like a good product (it seems pretty sturdy) except it didn't work in any of my faucets. I've even tried it my sister's and my neighbor's house and it didn't work in theirs either. I think it only works on the type shown. The only reason I didn't return it: it's too expensive to return compared to the price to keep it. I'd rather give it away to friend/relative/neighbor who can use it. It looks like it could work if you have the right faucet, that's why I rated 3 stars, otherwise it would 1 or none.

Customer Review: Now I understand what the other reviewers were saying...
Summary: 1 Stars

The Claber 8583 Koala Indoor Faucet to Garden Hose Connector looks like a decent made item but other than that, it was not what I had hoped for and is useless to me (not worth shipping back). I now understand what the other reviewers were saying about this item. If your faucet has any curves to the top - this will not work for you (I have the Kohler Fairfax). If your faucet is stick straight or from the "1950s thereabout" this may work for you (?).

Customer Review: Make sure it will fit your faucet! Read on!
Summary: 4 Stars

It may not be obvious from the picture - this thing clamps on to your faucet; it doesn't screw on. There is a rubber seal and a clamp mechanism that attaches it. So, if you have a funny-shaped faucet, it might not work for you. Fortunately, it works in my kitchen. But, I don't think it would work in my bathroom. Usage is pretty easy and intuitive. And, the seal is good. Almost no leaking or spraying if you do it right.

Customer Review: Works great for my standard kitchen faucet.
Summary: 5 Stars

The item clamps on to your faucet. It does not screw on in any way. We have a standard kitchen faucet and it works great with minimal leaking and no spraying issues. It took a few minutes to figure out how to get it adjusted just right (there aren't really any directions that come with it) but it is a quick and easy way to attach a hose to a kitchen faucet without having to buy a whole bunch of thread adapters.
