Good hose for the price

hose kinks a lot

This hose seems like a great value, but after using it for a short period of time I realized that there wasn't any real value. The hose is a very basic old-school garden hose. It's heavy and it kinks very easily where rolling it out 20 or 30 feet to water some flowers takes multiple minutes of unwinding the kinks to get it to work. I'm usually very happy with Member's Mark products, but this one misses the mark.

This hose seems to be pretty good for the price. It's "kink resistant," NOT kink proof. I'm not sure if it's even possible to buy a kink proof hose. Also, this hose has a "lifetime replacement guarantee." Just bring it back to Sam's and get another one if you have a problem with it. I did have the same problem as another reviewer. The spray nozzle I was using fused to the hose. This is most likely due to dissimilar metals and could be avoided by applying some silicone plumbers grease to the threads. The average home owner would never know to do this. I didn't even think about it, but I do usually grease connections, so they're easier to disassemble later.

Great durable hose

Seems heavy duty

I think I bought this hose last garden season. This product, which is manufactured by Teknor Apex, is very poor design and very poor quality. It self distructed at the female end. The strain relief cut through both layers of the hose jacket causing a major leak so bad that water did not come out of the end of the hose.
