I've been buying lightweight, inexpensive garden hoses and replacing each summer. I decided to try getting a heavier-duty hose. Saw this "professional grade" hose and thought I would try it. First line says "kink resistant hose". I have now been using it for three days, figuring I would get used to the heavy weight and get an extra workout dragging it 100 feet out into the yard. I got extra steps in as I had to return at least four times to unkink several places. I returned and read the reviews that I should've read in the first place. Clearly, "kink resistant" means something different than I expected. For an unwieldy, kinking hose, get this model. I'm returning it. System will not allow me to upload photo showing the kinks, but they are there even after I straighten the hose constantly.

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.

We've had a couple of these hoses for a few years. 1) They kink, but really, most hoses kink no matter how much they claim not to. 2) Real Issue: At first, the water seemed ok when we used them - but after having and using them a while - now - EVERY time we use them - a very gross looking stream of water comes out until you flush them out for a long time. The gross water looks like a very soapy concoction - well beyond the more typical "air foam" that you sometimes get out of a hose when first turn it on - - and for background: they are stored on hose reels - and yes we drain them and put them up every winter. Not sure if it's the hose breaking down or something else.

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.

We normally like the Member's Mark line of products and were happy to check out this 110 foot garden hose. It is of nice weight and has very nice connectors. However, it claims to be kink resistant. Not so much. And after the first year, the hose is terrible about kinking so we have to carefully lay out the hose. The hose should last 2 or 3 years even if you have it laying in the sunlight most of the day. Maybe that is why our hoses kink up more now than ever.

Seems like a good hose. But, I can't find a water sprayer attachment that fits. So, I don't get to use it very much!

This water hose is a good quality. We use them to water our garden and to keep our cow and chicken water full

These are the best hoses you can buy. They last for years with proper care. You can't beat the price.

Kink resistant my foot! I know it's kink resistant and not kink proof, but this thing is kinkier than some politicians! Great connections though.

I like having the long length, but it does kink and stop water flow because it is so long. But it's an easy fix, so I'm happy with it.
