Much easier to remove from kegerator than the much longer units with the barbed hose fitting and being shorter it doesn't take as long to unthread the retention nut when it's time to clean.

Works as advertised. No need to spend big on a stainless one. Never tasted any difference.

This is an affordable shank for those of us operating on a budget. Save your hard earned dollars for the stainless faucet. they have much more surface contact with your beer than the shank. My only gripe is the low quality plastic washer that I have to look at every time I pour one. It needs to be chrome or stainless to match the faucet.

Looks good works great!
