Review on YAMATIC 50Ft Garden Hose 5/8In, Ultra Durable Water Hose With Solid Brass Connector For All-Weather Outdoor Car Wash Lawn Black by Lan Rosales

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Nice flexible hose - NOT Heavy Duty.

This hose is a little bit undersized. It feels tiny compared to our other 5/8 hoses. It is listed as "Heavy Duty", but it feels pretty flimsy and thin. It's way smaller diameter than my other 5/8 hoses and about half the thickness of my 3/4in hose. The end fittings also have a restricted/small (about 7/16in) opening in the fitting which further cuts back on the flow. You can see in the picture the comparison of the Yamatic on the right and an old 5/8 hose on the left.While I wouldn't call this a "Heavy Duty" hose, there are some good things to say about it.The ends have nice high-quality machined brass fittings rather than the cheap stamped/bent fittings. It is very soft and flexible, which is nice for moving it around the flower beds and positioning it wherever needed. It also does much better at remaining flexible even in cold weather, it was a little bit stiff at 40deg, but it was way more flexible than some of our other hoses.

Pros
  • Hose appears as good quality. The snap in parts arrived two + weeks before the hose arrived.
Cons
  • This hose kinks easily.
