First hose I bought started leaking in a week. The second one leaked the very FIRST time I tried it.

Do not waste your money.

1.0 out of 5 stars JUNK !!! The hose broke the first day I hooked it up, April 18, 2007

This review is from: 50' Outdoor Flat Hose w/Reel

I hooked it up... and it it started spraying water right in the middle of the hose. This is the second "flat hose" type... and most likely the last.

It should also be noted that if you want to actually wind the hose back up in the casing... you have to disconnect the hose from the water faucet... every single time!!!

And since the connections are plastic... the connections would have surely worn out and leaked after a short time... with so much connecting and disconnecting.

JUNK JUNK JUNK

My bad fortune may be you good luck.

AND JUST INCASE!!!

The seller of this hose sent me a new hose... free of charge... which was nice.

HOWEVER...

the SECOND hose just blew a hole in it

The only good news for me is that I only had to pay for ONE hose.

I inspected the hose, just to find out how it was put together. Besides the fabric-weave outer liner... the "hose" inside is made up of a thin, clear plastic tubing... VERY THIN... plastic tubing, with a seam running length-wize down the tube. The seam down the inner tube, makes a point of weakness all they way down the tube.

And back to the THIN plastic tubing. IT could be compaired to that found on a "beef jerky" package in the grocery store.... and no... I not exagerating.

It's junk... plain and simple.
