good

I was looking for a 100 foot sturdy hose to replace one that had developed leaks. I am confident this hose will never develop leaks because it’s going straight into the trash. If I had kept the box, I would have returned it.As others have noted, this is the worst hose I’ve ever had in terms of kinks. The first warning was a piece of paper at the bottom of the box saying that “the hose needs to be fully unrolled before the water is turned on to avoid kinking.” They weren’t kidding. It took over 20 minutes to unroll the hose in the straight line to get out all the kinks. Unfortunately, even then, the hose would kink if you turned more than 45° from the centerline, unless one is going in a perfectly straight line, this hose is unusable. My experience in using it a few times is that the process needs to be repeated every single instance you want to use the hose. It is impossible to just take a few feet of it to water some plants.The kinking may be less onerous on the shorter models, but on 100 feet it is unbearable.The fittings seem to be of good quality, and the nozzle was perfectly fine.

I thought it was odd that the 'hose connectors are 3/4 inch" but it seems the hose isn't ID 3/4 inch. I have no way to measure that though. I like the ends are metal and the shutoff on the hose end is a nice touch.we'll see how it looks after the summer of use

Needed another and longer hose. Already have one of these for the front yard so now we have the very long one for the back yard. Makes watering potted plants easy.

Felt sturdy out of the box. I was excited to have a lightweight durable hose. I noted the disclaimer that the hose needed to be completely unrolled to avoid kinking. Well, once the hose is unrolled it is difficult to roll back up. I also fight kinks no matter what. I'm sure this will be a long lasting backup hose.

I wrote a glowing review of this hose after using the first one I ordered a year ago. I liked it so much, in fact, that i ordered a second one, supposedly the EXACT same hose. You know on Amazon where you can reorder a item previously purchased with one click? Well, that's exactly what I did, BUT the product I received was very different than one I purchased a year ago. The box looked the same, the nozzle that came with it was the same, the hose looked the same, but it definitely wasn't. I thought, well, maybe I need to use it a bit for it to get broken in. Um...No. This hose is stiff, kinks really easily....pretty much functions like a regular ol' not-so-good quality rubber hose. I definitely wouldn't have purchased this second one if I'd known something in the manufacturing had changed from last year to this year.

It’s exactly what it is says!

Initially, we found this hose to be lightweight and very nice although the spout doesn't work well like most in this price range. When we first got it, I had to lay it out straight on the patio to get all the kinks out. And, I found that putting it on a hose rack only created more kinks when we tried to use it. So we leave it lengthways on the patio concrete in the shade. However, soon the black outer material wore off in places where it had initially kinked for (literally) seconds before I straightened it out. And now, much less than a year later... it is leaking in several places. Unfortunately before the leaks, we bought a second hose. We'll see how this one goes. And of course, we have no recourse with Amazon or the manufacturer. My recommendation is do not buy this product.
