There are better choices
Even though this looks like a quality item, there are two serious design deficiencies that make it a poor choice. First, the water passage through the ball valve is very small. It's a hair over 0.25" dia. That's much too restrictive. Second, there are poor anti-rotation provisions on the valve handles so that after a period of use they always come loose and must be tightened. Eventually the screw strips out. I've had several of these valves and they have all failed the same way.

Not recomended leaks
This adapter has a low flow as it has relatively small water channels. But it leaks through either side at about 5GPH even when shut with pylers. That's enough for a small soaker hose. Has 100F and 60psi limitation that will not matter for most folks. The Nelson Rezimar High-Water Flow Dual Outlet Kink-Free Flex Hose Adapter with Coil #50315 is much much better for less money!
LOWER WATER FLOW THAN OTHER TYPES OF VALVES
Although this item is made with quality material and construction,
the valve holes are only 3/8" diameter and you can't get sufficient water flow
as when you use other brands that give you a 1/2" diameter valve holes, matching your normal 1/2" warer supply to a garden hose spigot.
