5.0 out of 5 stars Top quality, professional grade hose, October 8, 2004

This review is from: Gilmour 10-34050 3/4-Inch-by-50-Foot 8-Ply Flexogen Hose (Lawn & Patio)

This hose is "industrial-strength" and will probably last a lifetime. After going through cheaper hoses I decided to get one that will last, not kink, and can be used with my pressure washer - this one fits all of the above.

I also use them with the Nelson brass impulse head sprinklers (ASIN: B0002IKUGO) - daisychaining sprinklers from multiple hoses - as an alternative solution to an in-ground sprinkling system.

This hose is rated at pressures you may not need (500 PSI), and is constructed to be impervious to just about any chemical or temperature you will encounter in home use. The fittings are solid and mate perfectly with facets (unlike other hoses I've used).

Although these hoses are practically kink-proof, they are somewhat stiff and heavy. For sprinklers and other applications this is not a problem, but for hosing down driveways, etc. they are tiring if you are dragging it over a large area.

I view this hose as a great investment because it may be the only hose you'll ever have to buy.

It is cheaper to buy this hose the first time than any of the less expensive competitive versions. This one lasts and doesn't kink. It works in very cold environments including the mountains of Colorado. Our previous one lasted over 15 years before being chewed and destroyed by a black bear.

GPM increases exponentially with hose diameter, so the 3/4" size is a must have in the yard. Gilmour warrantees the hose for life with a very simple return policy, cut the ends, and send them in. Amazon has this 3/4" hose for less than most offer the 5/8"! Great buy for a great, well backed product.
