Are any of the fittings where you attach the hose (inout or output) plastic?

No it is marked for in and out. I purchased fittings to match my application.

The outputs to the hoses are male threaded like shown in the picture. The inlets are not threaded; they fit on to your existing single-lever shutoff fittings and use screws to attach. You need to already have a manual shutoff with these fittings or need to purchase the fittings separately; they are not included with this item.

Comes w/hose, It is metal, but has just started to leak, not from main connection point, but from hose joint. Only had installed a few months and now a leak.

yes. the hose comes with faucet fittings (male on one and female on other) installed on both ends.

Yes, the end curves and the fan sprayer is attached with a common hose fitting. By the way, the unit is very rugged and high quality.

No it has brass fittings on it. Its very well built and very sturdy. Im glad I bought mine. You won't regret it.

The one I purchased is brass but I recently found these fittings which appeared to be made with much poorer quality materials and workmanship at home depot so I unfortunately cannot vouch for what is now being sold. A significant reduction in quality in the brass fitting and in now what appears to be a plastic clamp with poor quality screws. They used to be a very well made product. Sorry

Connectors were brass. Unfortunately mine leaked and for my use in a finished basement a simple washer hose did the job.

The fittings on the hose we ordered were all stainless. That's why we ordered it since the plastic fittings on previous hoses kept cracking.

The crimp on the hose & portion that pushes vale in on a standard tank are metal. The collar that screws onto the tank is plastic.

The end of the hose that attaches to it is metal but the connection on the unit itself is plastic like everything else. I have had mine a little over two yearsand the plastic reel inside the unit has deteriorated and broken just from thestress of winding the hose on it. I had originally given it a two star rating butnow I would change to one star.

The output hose is simply a light plastic corrugated tube pushed over a barbed fitting. If you wanted to use a garden hose you would need to make your own adapter such as a short piece of tygon tubing with a barbed male or female garden hose fitting. It would not be difficult to do.

Yes the connection is standard. BTW be sure to tighten all the hose clamps before installing. I didn't and several months later it started leaking like crazy. Not a big deal totake it down and tighten the clamps but better to not have to.

that is true the picture does show metal fittings but they were plastic, the fittings did not seem strong enough to hold up for high use, that is the very reason I returned this item

You do not need metal fittings. Screw the clear provided plastic coupler to the power washer, snap the small end of the clear adapter into the blue end of the provided plastic hose adapter and, and screw the hose into the black end of the hose adapter. I did this and no leaks. The people who complain about leaking have incorrectly screwed the black end of the hose adapter into the macine. The threads do not fit correctly between the power washer and black end of the hose adapter
