I bought this hose today and it kinked 4 times unrolling the very first time. I was willing to give it a chance, but after I hooked it up I found two holes in it. I think it may have been due to the fact the plastic packing straps cut into it. If it punctures and kinks that easily, I want no part of it and will be returning it tomorrow. Very disappointed as I have two other hosed I purchased at Sams 24 years ago that are still in service.

Pros: Very well made and has held up very well. Cons: Think twice about this one unless you are going to leave it in the same spot over the years. It is a heavy 120 foot long hose. It also kinks everytime I try to move it. It's a pain to have to walk back 120 feet to correct. I have left it out in the same position for two years and it is never moved. Thanks

I've been buying these for litteraly decades. Remember, you're in the driver's seat with this, or any garden hose. If you initially unroll it getting all of the twists and kinks out, it will operate just fine without kinks. When using if you twist your hose (evident with twists behind the nozzle) you need to untwist the hose so it remains without twists, in order to prevent kinks. I have 2 of these hoses connected together going to my donkey barn that have been in use for years. Also have 3 connected going to my orchard. Have never had problems with any of them, if I follow the above rules. Also might I say have 5 new ones in reserve as these are seasonable at Sam's club.

I use to buy really quality garden hose at Sam's Club, but this one is not the quality of the older hoses. I bought 2 of these and they kink way too easily. That's the worse when you have to go back 100 ft 5 times while watering and unkink the hose. For the price, it's better than most at the same price at other places. It's just not professional grade hose.

Leaked on initial hookup. This is not the quality of the hoses they previously carried in store every spring. I have been getting my hoses here for years, usually getting mulitiple years of use from each. The quality has gone down and the price has increased.

Have had this hose for several years. It does kink and does stop water flow almost completely. I've kept it only because I don't have the receipt anymore. Who keeps a receipt for a $20 hose that supposedly has a lifetime warranty? Nobody other than an obsessive compulsive that keeps everything!

It does kink up. Within 30 days it has a hole in it. Waste of money.

This thing is worse hose I've ever owned. Kinks terrible.

10ft shorter than same product last year and more expensive.

very heavy and rigid making it a pain to move in the yard and roll up.
