In search of good valves that don’t require a loan

[kellyfair]

Holy cow. Prices have definitely gone up!

I want a couple of good ball valves that won’t lock up on me but that also won‘t cost an arm and a leg. Union ends would be sweet (unless they are problematic... not sure I have seen any commentary on those here before).

Thanks, I did but wanted some real life testimonials to avoid anything under par.

Phraher valves are about as good as you can get.
