Tomlinson 1018854 Replacement Cooler Faucet, White (Pack of 2)

I have a suntea jar that I just love and did not want to throw away. The spigot that came with the jar had started to leak so bad that I just had to quit using it. So I came to Amazon because they carry EVERYTHING and low and behold they had this item which is described as a water dispenser replacement faucet. But because it looks so similar to what I had on my jar I decided to give it a shot since it only cost upwards of around $8 and no shipping. I just couldn't pass up the chance that it would work. And sure enough it is a perfect fit and does not leak and I actually like it better than the original one that came with the jar. Instead of pushing on the little nub to dispense the tea like I had to do before, now I have a nice big lever that I push down to despense my tea. Very please with my purchase.

I wanted to set up a Bokashi Composting system but didn't want to spend a ton on the fancy (read: logo-stamped and expensive) bin system. So I'm using my own 5-gallon buckets with Gamma Seal lids and this spigot on the bottom bucket for draining the "tea". This little device works like a charm and was VERY easy to install. I used a 3/4" flat blade drill bit for the hole, and when the faucet is installed, the washers snug right up against the bucket on each side so there are no leaks! When using the spigot, it's either on or it's off; no dribbling! The only thing that might be a problem for some is that the spigot sticks out 4-5 inches from the bucket overall, which might get knocked or kicked depending on where you store it. I have the buckets turned so the spigot is against the wall of the garage which gives them a bit of protection. No problems so far and I am very satisfied!

This replacement cooler faucet was exactly what I needed. I bought it to install on a cooler that was not designed for a faucet. I wanted a smaller cooler than a 2 gallon with a faucet. After looking in numerous different stores, I decided to try drilling a hole in a 2 1/2 qt. cooler and installing a faucet myself. The threaded portion of the replacement faucet was a little short. So, I used a heat gun and warmed up the area around the hole I drilled in the cooler and was able to push it in far enough to be able to use the rubber washer and plastic nut (included) to secure the faucet. Then to prevent any possible leaks, I used some clear epoxy around the outside around the faucet flange. No leaks. Works great.

I use this for for my brita water dispenser when the original faucet broke. The reason for not full 5 star is because... they need to have color combination of black and white ( like the original) They ave either black or white today. No complaints on functionality and completely satisfied. More over this comes at a fraction of the price compared to an original replacement

I use a square 5 gallon fresh water container in my camper-van. The faucet that came with the water container dripped when it was on its side. The Tomlinson replacement faucet fit perfectly and the threads and nut made a drip free. This is the second one purchased. The other is on a ceramic cooler used for every-day use in our house and has worked drip free for over a year. Here is the new info; the faucet does not allow adequate valume of water to fill a cup or glass in a reasonable time. We use this thing 10 or more times a day and after a while it gets annoying to hold a cup while waiting for it to fill up. I have another faucet like this one in our camper and it fills a glass in no time and it doesn't drip either. So, no dripping is not he only factor to consider.

I recently bought a large glass water jar [not from Amazon] that holds more than one gallon of water, but the fancy spigot that came with it took a long time to fill a glass with water. I drove to several different shops looking for a better spigot and eventually found it on Amazon. I could have saved a lot of time and gas if I had bought from Amazon in the first place. I bought this larger sized spigot to replace the original and it worked perfect. Now when someone wants a glass of water, he or she will not have to grow old watching the water trickle from the jar into a glass. A poor design on the manufacturer's part now fixed. But, it turned out that the original hole in the glass was also too small so I had to enlarge it so the new spigot I bought from Amazon would fit.

I ordered three of these to replace the worn out and leaky spigots that came with the ceramic water crocks that we bought from a thrift store. (We make continuous brew kombucha in the ceramic crocks.) The replacement spigots were easier to install than the old spigots were to remove. There is a diagram showing correct placement of the washers printed on the heat sealed bag that the spigots are packaged in. The washers need to be installed properly (with the flat side facing away from the hole in the crock) and the jam nut tightened enough to slightly squish the washers against the crock walls. We have had no leakage issues from any of the three replacement spigots. I really like that these spigots can be disassembled for cleaning. The lever portion unscrews from the spigot body. We have one particularly exuberant kombucha strain that will quickly clog a spigot with a baby scoby. Being able to occasionally take this spigot apart to remove the little scoby keeps the kombucha flowing. I am very happy with these Tomlinson Replacement Faucets, and think had the ceramic crock’s previous owners known that they could have replaced the worn out and leaky spigots on their ceramic water crocks they wouldn’t have donated them to the thrift store where we found them.

I purchased this to make a drain bucket for oil when changing oil on my vehicles. Used oil goes in the bucket and this valve makes it easy to put the used oil into the empty bottles to drop at the the auto parts store for disposal. It is obviously not very complicated, but it functions well and does not leak. The price is comparable to others, which I find to be about twice as much as it should be, but that's just my opinion about a cheap piece of plastic. If it were brass, I could see it costing more of course. Giving it 5 stars for function, which is really what we all care about.

This was a very good solution for my Brita Ultramax filtration system. Easy to install and it works. No leaks!

Buena calidad, sin queja alguna. El único inconveniente es la tardanza en la entrega. Pero vale la pena el producto.

Great. Did exactly as expected.

It's a good tap

Fits perfectly and easy to install. Excellent product
