I want a quick connect for a garden hose -but- I do not want it to shutoff the flow automatically. Does this model fill the bill?

this item is a connector ONLY. There is no valve. Very happy with my purchase!

When you disconnect an accessory using the quick connect, it does not stop the flow of water. Attaching an accessory such as a spray nozzle will stop the flow. You can do what I do and connect a Dramm Heavy-Duty shut off valve to the end of the hose and then attach the quick connect to that which easily allows you to turn on and off the flow of water. I just checked and that shutoff valve is not nearly as cheap as they were when I ordered mine. The Dramm watering wands include the brass shutoff and they work well if you're looking to water plants or gently wash a vehicle. I hope this helps!

There is no shutoff and this is the BEST quality connector I have ever used. I also bought the 12424 one touch shower and stream nozzle and it is great.

Yes I believe so. I have a brass shut off valve on all my hoses in the greenhouse and I have to turn off the hose before I disconnect or I get a face full of water. There is no flow restriction on these.

This is an excellent quick connect, and no, it does not shut off the flow automatically. If you disconnect, the water keeps flowing out.

It comes with hose threads to attach to whatever has the mating threads. When I purchased mine, it came without a shutoff. I prefer the Dramm shutoff, because they are plastic, but they are hard to find and will degrade in the sunlight. I still think it is worth it.

Ours works very well and makes it easy to put hose away. It seems to unwind easier with water pressure turned off.

I am not sure what is meant by "restrict flow when connected to just a normal garden hose?", so I really can't answer the question. I use the Orbit with my normal garden hoses & it works fine in delivering water at the appropriate times.

No, the black piece on the left side pulls down to release water into the hose; then you move upward to shut off. So, I believe if you do not have a hose hooked up to the manual side you leave it up. The right side is control by the dial which can be shut off. I have a hose hooked up on the right side that goes to 3 underground sprinklers and is automatically set by how I set the dial. The other side I have a hose set up that is controlled by manual up or down thing on the left that I use for mostly garden activity.

I've not noticed any flow restriction vs connecting a hose directly to the faucet.

Don't quite understand your question, but the connector screws on your garden hose and then the quick connect end connects to the machine.

I used it to connect from a battery operated watering timer device to two garden hoses. It works great! The device connected to my hose bib spicket and the splitter to the timing device. You should have no problem. I recommend this diverter. It seems to be made with quality.

No, no auto shutoff. You could pehaps put a timer on the water-supply hose.

You don't need a quick disconnect. This attaches to the quick connect on the end of all spay wands that come with power washers.

That depends how you want to use it. There is a waterfall and so In order for the waterfall to keep working a hose needs to be on the whole time. However, if you don't want to use the waterfall then you can just fill up the pool and turn off the water

This does not connect to a garden hose. This will connect directly to a pressure washer hose.

No. It doesn't restrict water flow when connected to a 5/8 garden hose, works great and I would recommend this product to anyone.

Jennifer: I installed this for my Aunt in SC. I think your question is about shutting off the flow at the hand held spray head. The answer to that is Yes. The black buttons on the side shut the flow off. That is sort of a pause button, so you don't have to turn the water off at the wall. This was a good product. It does not come with a hose, but the hoses are sold in the usual big box stores or hardware stores and you can choose the length there. I hope this helps you. DAVE

No, if you mean at the hose bib. It just shuts off water going into the wand. There is still water in the hose that will flow if you separate the two.

There is a connector that is installed so that the hose can be connected/disconnected when needed. Very simple and has worked great for me!

It continues to run without water to pump...I haven't had that issue yet because I monitor it closely when I use it...that's what I meant about not have an auto shutoff...that would be good but for an inexpensive purchase, it has served me well so far.
