I have loved these valves since they came out. Very compact, full flow, and eliminates multiple fittings.
I have even used these and female garden hose adapters to create some compact garden hose shut off valves.

Not "Full-Port"… not even close
I bought these because they were advertised as "Full-port". The cross-sectional ID (inner diameter) across the ball valve is significantly reduced and no where close to full port. Full port would be about 3/4" all the way through the valve, but the ID through the ball is slightly less than 1/2 inch! The ID of the outlet is slightly larger than 3/4". The inlet ID is about 1" because it is a female thread to accept a pipe. This is unacceptable to call this a full port valve.

A+
Valve is great replacement for boiler drains that come with plastic bibs from box stores. Valve isn't full port but for the price a great upgrade to the standard water heater

NOT full port
These are a great idea and economical, but they are NOT full port. However, the port is larger than the straight through brass drain valves normally installed on water heaters. More than adequate for city water, but for hard well water that creates large scale deposits, a full port valve with a hose adapter fitting may be a better solution.
