I installed a year ago now and have had zero issues. Its a great convenience come oil change time and a lot smoother and cleaner process.
One year edit: still working great! Worth it! Make sure it’s installed correctly, and be mindful that the drain tile could be two or three times longer with it in, so put the pan under, open the drain valve, and go get a coffee or something. But the convenience is worth it! Still holding up 30k miles later.
11-30-19 Update--Finally drained my oil for work on the vehicle and used old oil container and clear plastic tubing and worked very well! It takes a little longer to drain than just using the "drain bolt loosening" method, but not a big deal; this isn't a race. ;)
10-10-20 Update-It's been about 2 years since I installed this valve and I've had no leaks or problems with it.
04-14-21 Update-I just installed another of these valves on a 2007 Toyota Corolla because of how much easier it made changing the oil on my Camry. FYI-It's the same exact size for both vehicles.
05-25-21 Update-I just drained my oil on the Camry & used one of those small zip ties to make sure the clear tubing I used that went from this valve to the container was secured well to the nipple of this valve. I think I'll do that for now on as the clear tubing could possibly come off otherwise if I brushed the tubing by mistake. FYI-An old laundry detergent container had thick enough plastic that it didn't allow the hot oil to melt the container after driving prior for about 7 minutes; I wouldn't try it with those thin plastic milk 1 gallon containers as the hot oil would probably deform the container & leak. I usually use old oil containers, but tried this container this time as it seemed more robust & I had to drain it quickly after driving. It's safer to drain it after the cars engine has cooled but that's not always possible. I did have to jack up the front end of the car so the laundry container could fit underneath it.
I installed the fumoto valve on my 2008 Toyota Corolla CE. I ended up using an extra washer to get the valve all the way in.
I chose the F103S over the F103N because it has a shorter spout and its the best for the Corolla or if you are worried that the valve might be knocked off when you drive over a ramp.
Really good buy. No complaints except for the slight difficulty in getting the valve all the way in and having to use an extra washer.
You should also look at the F-103 if you are worried about ground clearance under your car.

One complaint I do have is that the instruction say to tighten and extra 1/4 of a turn beyond hand tight but this was very loose and I had to tighten it a good deal more to stop it from weeping.
Edit one year later: Has worked great through multiple oil changes with no leaking and opens and closes like the day I put it in.
No mess any Moore
