Exactly what I wanted for a direct OEM replacement. 15 minutes to remove old unit and reconnect with new.While the design is not the most durable it works fine. I have overcome it’s short comings by not using the hose connection directly and incorporating a 90 degree elbow to reduce strain on the plastic hose connection.

I needed to replace my water hatch and this was the best priced one I could find. It fit perfect and looks good. It not fancy but it worked for me. I not sure how long it will hold up, but you can’t beat the price.

Replaced an old one of these on my 2003 Forest River bunkhouse. Looks great and easy to install. Good quality plastic.

Fit purfectly. Installed and operational in about 5 minutes. Not built as well as the original but I believe it will hold up fine.

Direct fit and better quality that the original. The reason for it being better is the way the city water inlet is held in place. The retaining tabs encircle the water on all sides inlet instead of using the old style U-clip. The inlet remains straight where the old style would deflect due to the weight of the hose, angle connector, and pressure reducer I use when hooking up the hose.

A direct replacement as the one originally on my Keystone Cougar TT but take note, the city water connect is all plastic, not brass as my original one. How good it is or last, only time will tell but it’s all cheap plastic and at $19.00, not cheap! I want to go with a better quality larger panel but the cut out woukd have to be cut larger, no easy task as its framed inside in aluminum so I had no option to go with this original sized one.

Product was easy to install and works well. It would have been nice if it came with pre cut Dicor tape and screws.
