Initial impression is good
We decided to try Trudesign fittings in our boat after a series of issues with bronze. Internet reviews look very promising and fact that they're made in NZ is a plus. We bought the whole system (skin fittings, ball vales, weight collar and hose tails) - all very solid and well made. No indication of longevity yet but so far, so good.
