The hose was fine until it developed big bubbles along the entire hose. Since this item has a "lifetime replacement guarantee", I contacted Sam's through the chat option. The person I spoke with refused to send a replacement and told me it was not an option on their end. I asked to speak with a supervisor and the person told me that the supervisor would say the same thing. Then they disconnected the chat. I did this THREE more times and every single time, the customer service rep would disconnect the chat with the issue being unresolved. I have called and WHEN I am able to actually speak to someone, they refuse to help me. Other times I call, there is an endless wait. The longest I've waited on hold is 30 minutes. My issue was never resolved. I don't know why Sam's offers this fake "lifetime replacement guarantee" if they have no intention to honor it.

My wife and I decided we needed a better heavy duty water hose so we went to Sam's where we normally get good deals, but I just went to use it this morning for the very first time and as soon as I turned the water on about halfway, the hose completely came out out of the part that screws into the water Spicket see pictures

I bought this 2-3 years ago %26 so far it has worked great. I like the large hand holds on the ends so that they are easy to retighten a 1/4 turn or so when needed from frequent use. The hose is heavy, which is fine, but I wouldn't try to use a hose this long without a hose reel of some type. Sam's/Member's Mark needs to make a 25' %26 50' version of this same hose. Don't change anything just shorten it. I would buy a shorter version of this hose right now if one existed.

I've only given one other product a five-star review and that was over one year ago. If a product meets it's intended purpose, it get four stars. This is unquestionably the best hose I've ever had. My previous hoses (three 100 footers) were also "kink resistant" and I spent years chasing down and removing kinks. This hose has never kinked to the point where the water is choked off. It's slightly heavier than my previous hose but it's longer and less expensive. The heavy-duty plastic grips make it easy to connect to nozzles, sprinklers and other hoses. I intend to purchase one more.

Nice, heavy duty and kink free.

The sidewall blew out with the first use.

Solid Hose, good end peices

great garden hose for the money, I have bought three hoses so far

I have two of these hoses now. They've been good so far.

Wonderful hose. Long enough for home use. Highly recommend it.
