Amazon.com Review
Exceptionally strong, durable, flexible, and lightweight, this Flexogen hose is built to last. Designed to withstand 500 PSI water pressure without bursting, its double-layer, polyester, cord-reinforced construction provides outstanding strength and endurance. A special sealed compound--flexible even in the harshest cold weather--coats and protects the hose from rain, snow, mildew, cuts, and abrasions. The Flow Guard Plus collar keeps the hose extended and kink-free, so no matter how much you tug and stretch it, water flow is never interrupted. An O-ring seal prevents leaks, and crush-resistant, brass couplings keep their shape impeccably even after years of use. The hose also winds and stows easily. It even floats for trouble-free retrieval from pool or pond. Measuring 5/8 inches in diameter and 100 feet long, this sturdy garden tool is made in the USA, and backed by a full, lifetime-replacement guarantee. --Mary Park

Customer Reviews

Flexogen Hose
I found that this hose was just how amazon described it. The hose is a little stiff but doesn't kink as much as a normal hose. I also own one of the neverkink brands and this is a little stiffer than those hoses for comparison. Knowing that I have a lifetime warranty that company will actually follow through with is a great piece of mind for me!

Don't waste your money on Home Depot hoses
I replaced a new hose that I bought from Home Depot with this product. The Home Depot hose immediately leaked like crazy from its fittings. It was also very stiff and hard to untangle. This hose doesn't drip at all. It is flexible and feels high quality. I will only buy Gilmour hoses in the future.

Buy once, use forever
I bought several of these 20+years ago when they were still owned by Gates. After several years, the male ends started leaking a little bit, I replaced the ends with heavier duty brass ends by Nelson ([...]) & they still work perfectly now. I believe they come with heavier ends now. I could have sent the cutoff ends in for free replacement hose under the lifetime warranty, but haven't since the hoses themselves have NEVER failed and I continue to use them w/o leaks or problems. Hose remains flexible and has never become worn or brittle from weather exposure. They are easy to roll up unless the weather is really cold. I would definitely recommend and would purchase again (if I needed more). They don't seem to have gone up in price either.
