Review on πŸ’™ Teknor Apex Zero-G Half-Inch by 25-Feet Hose in Blue color by Alex Pollard

Revainrating 3 out of 5

There doesn't seem to be any quality control

I bought two of these tubes. One of these leaked in the crimp connection the first time it was used. Contacted Teknor Apex directly and got a refund straight away which was great. I bought the same replacement hose and the new one leaked again at the pinch connection! This company is not required to perform quality control testing before packaging these hoses. I like the hose because it's light weight and the one I have works great. All components are of high quality. It was this crimping that was inaccurate and resulted in a leak. I'm not talking about slow dripping. Water splashed everywhere. And yes, I checked again whether the hose connection is tight and whether the seals are in place. How could this have been overlooked during hose assembly?! Be careful and be prepared to return your hose immediately if you encounter this problem. At the 3rd change I'll give him another chance. After that I'll probably look for another one.

Pros
  • Great for outdoor activities
Cons
  • Not bad but...
