If I ignore the fact that I think it's a little overpriced, I can give this the full 5-star rating. It is a high-quality product made with high-quality parts. It was easy to install and does the job it was intended to do perfectly (as long as your screen room uses standard aluminum frames like the kind shown).The only downside (but I won't deduct any points) is that it uses self-tapping metal screws, which are great, but they require a hex-socket screwdriver which a lot of people may not have if they're not big DIYers... so you may have the annoyance of having to go buy one. You also may find it easier if you use a tiny drill bit or tap a divot with a nail to help keep the screws in place as you get them started. I'd also advise sandwiching a square of duct tape (or better yet, some weather resistant vent tape) between the two pieces to better hold the screen together as you cut through the screen to make the hole (so you'll also need a razor... a narrow penknife style works best.)But all in all, a very easy install of a very convenient and high-quality product! If it had been ten bucks cheaper, it would have gotten one of my very rare 5-PLUS ratings.

The BillyBib was the perfect solution to doing away with the need to squeeze sideways 8 feet down a 16 inch wide space between the foundation and the edge of a porch. A short section of leader hose completed the installation and now, its super simple and convenient to use that backyard hose.

Good solution for getting a hose bib inside my pool enclosure. It's well made and easy to install. The finish matches the dark bronze color of the pool enclosure perfectly.

Product is great. Easy to install. Very clear directions. Perfect solution for running hose inside lanai or any screen enclosure

Excellent design. Sturdy installation. Found that the small screws were not adequate as they ripped out the soft aluminum rail. Had to increase the size of the shaft of the screw to ensure stronger attachment. We have a hurricane screen that drops down outside the regular screen. Must consider the amount of the hose and bib protruding outside of the mount - in this case it was 7 inches horizontal.EXCELLENT PRODUCT!

I’ve been looking for a way to install a hose bib inside of my lanai so I could set up an auto filler for my pool. I was so tired of dragging the hose into the lanai every other day to top off the pool when the water got low from evaporation. Billy Bib to the rescue!!!I installed the Billy Bib a little differently than the product photos, because I have metal siding on the bottom part of the enclosure. It worked out just fine using the frame as a bottom support for the inside bracket.It doesn’t say it anywhere, but you do have to cut a small hole in the screen once the brackets are installed, but the brackets should sandwich the screen tight enough to prevent the screen from ripping once the hole has been cut.I recommend having the proper socket wrench to get the self tapping screws into the frame. It took quite a bit of torque to pierce the frame before the screws would actually go through it.I couldn’t be happier with this purchase!! Installing this has made my life just a bit easier! One less annoying task I have to worry about!

I don’t know why this product is not sold at Home Depot or Lowe’s. Very easy to install took me about 10 minutes.

We have a screened porch with the water spigot outside the screen. We installed this and it worked wonderful. It is very easy too install. I recommend this product.
