Review on 5/8" X 10' Garden Hose - Heavy Duty Hybrid, Kink Resistant, All-Weather Flexible With Swivel Grip Handle & 3/4" GHT Brass Fittings (Green + Blue) by Robert Dingaling

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Looks like it will last a while

I've been using pocket hoses for a while because I was tired of having kinks in the other types of hoses and because they are always so hard to maneuver. I wanted to try this one because it claims to be kink free. I needed a longer hose for the backyard, so I went with the 100'. Because it is so long, it is rather heavy. I also feel like it may not be completely kink free. One of the times I used it I had to unravel it a bit so it wouldn't kink. I wasn't able to use it too long before I had to put it away for the season unfortunately. The thing I really like about the hose is when I shut the water off it almost immediately drains the hose. Coming from a few years of using the pocket hoses, that doesn't happen, you usually have to wait a while before it is done releasing water and the hose shrinks back. Next spring when I can bring it back out I will be using it for the rest of the season and I will try to update the review then with additional information. So far, it appears to be a good quality hose and looks like it won't break down any time soon.

Pros
  • EASE TO USE: Equiped with swivel grip handle for easily threading the fittings onto a hose bid. Sold Brass 3/4" GHT fittings for abasion resistance and long time use. Rubber washer for no leaking connection.
Cons
  • Difficult to attach to some outdoor faucets
