Flexon Flextreme Advanced 5/8" x 50' Garden Hose

Pay more and buy heavy dry or commercial grade hose. This hose doesn't stay kink free in or out of the reel or hose bucket so it didn't work well in front or back yard. Only works well if you stretch it out in the yard and leave it there. It is not good if you have to water multiple places because it kinks up and the water flow gets interrupted. Would be better as a soaker if that was what it was designed for. Not good for a multiple use hose required to be moved around the property. You will spend all your time unwinding and unlinking the hose to get good water flow. NOT GOOD MULTI-USE HOSE!!

Poor quality. Appears well made but not really. Owed for 60 days. First time I've ever returned a hose. Kinks on every use and does not want to coil properly on hose hanger. The male end of the hose literally blew off. The male end was connected to my sprayer and the hose blew off sending the hose off spraying everything! Good thing I didn't accidentally leave the water turned on overnight. That was the last straw for me. I paid extra to get a heavy duty good quality hose. This was not it.

Unfortunately, when I connected the hose to the faucet it leaked. Hopefully, I can change out the rubber gasket in the opening of the hose and that will solve the problem. I give the review one star, because something brand new should not have issues. Otherwise, I would of found a used hose somewhere and dealt with that.

It will not quit leaking at the faucet end. I attached it directly to the metal faucet and also to two different splitters - one plastic and one metal but it leaked with all of them. I changed the washer -twice (trying an o-ring also), backed it off the threads, and tightened it down. I carefully screwed it onto the threads while holding the hose out straight so just the threaded part turned in hopes it would seat properly and seal but nothing I did worked. It continued to leak out the back of the fitting. (I actually bought two of these and they both leaked)

I was very pleased with the price and apparent quality when I first purchased this hose. It was replacing a 20 year old 125 foot hose from Sam's Club, so I expected to get long use from it. But I was shocked after only one year to see that the hose was breaking down, with cracks and splits appearing in the outer layers. It hasn't yet sprung leaks, but it's obviously about to. I expected a much longer lasting hose.

I spent good money on a hose that went bad in 2 months of use. the inner hose cracked and then it started to Bubble up to were you could see it through the clear outer cover then the bubble burst open. I had cheap hose last season before having to replace. Don't buy this hose piece of crap.

This may turn out to be a good overall hose but it kinks so badly that I just can’t get by that. I’m forced to stretch it all the way out, remove the kinks and double back to my watering point. Very frustrating due to the advertised “features”.

This thing is junk. Didn’t even get to start using it. It kinks and twists so much even unrolling it. It kinks immediately at the spigot. Impossible to put on a reel. Dozens of kinks and twists and memory immediately at the kink points. Attempted multiple times to straighten it and untwist it, but little success. If it kinks and twists this much already it would only get to be more a constant pain to use as time went on. Returning immediately.

Worst hose I have ever owned. I have owned very cheap hoses that were better than this hose. the female end leaks very bad and I couldn't get it to stop. I ended up cutting the female end and putting on a hose mender to stop the leak. The kinks are terrible. When I unroll the hose, I have at least 3-4 kinks I have to go and straighten and if I move the hose it tends to kink again. Worthless hose, I hate to throw things away so I will use it the rest of the summer but I will be throwing away and getting something else next year.

I am a real purchaser, not part of a promotion. This hose is terrible! It kinks if you look at it sideways! Trying to use it is completely frustrating, constantly have to stop and straighten out kinks making it a chore to move around as you are watering. Way more trouble than it is worth! Keep looking for a better product!
