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

5.0 out of 5 stars Top of the line hose, July 10, 2007

This review is from: Gilmour 10-58075 8-ply Flexogen Hose 5/8-Inch-by-75-Foot, Green (Lawn & Patio)

I've a great big landscaped yard.

I own nearly a quarter mile of hose of almost every description. I've gotten good service from almost every brand - but only consistently good service from two; Craftsman all rubber, and Gilmore Flexogen. Ergo, those two are all I buy anymore.

I'm obsessively intolerant of leaks anywhere.

The Flexogen hose is the lightest and easiest to handle hose I own. The Craftsman may be a tad more durable, but being black, gets a bit warm in the hot sun.

I'm sure I'm at least partly wrong, but most of the complaints I've read here sound more like operator head space and timing problems than a problem with the hose. I've some over six years old and never had the need to test the guarantee.

To mitigate tangling problems with any hose, I suggest using 50' lengths and LR Nelson's Brass Quick Connectors (I also gave 5 stars). Further, I discourage tugging on a hose to get to that "last flowerbed." An extra section of hose is much cheaper than what the plumber is going to charge to replace broken hose bib pipes. I always leave a little loop of hose next to the bib and won't allow myself to pull hard enough to remove the loop.

If you place any hose on concrete and run over it, sooner or later, it will fail. I don't treat my stuff that way.

I just ordered two more Gilmore Flexogen hoses from Amazon to replace another brand that age has made a bit brittle. Good price, free shipping. What's not to like?

5.0 out of 5 stars Why I don't buy a cheap hose..., August 16, 2000

This review is from: Gilmour 10-58050 8-ply Flexogen Hose 5/8-Inch by 50-Foot, Green (Lawn & Patio)

I'm an air conditioning technician, so I clean more than 500 air conditioners a year. When I got tired of using hoses that kinked, sprayed water over me from leaks in the hose or fittings, were difficult to reel or stow and had squashed, stamped-brass fittings which were hard to screw attachments to, I bought a Flexogen hose. Now I have a durable, leak-free hose which stands up to heavy daily use. It amazes me when I see how many homeowners have practically unusable hoses once the fittings have been run over in their driveway. This hose is (just a little more) money well-spent.

When they say "if you have a problem with your Flexgen hose, simply cut off both ends and send them post paid, along with your name, address, and length of the hose to Gilmour, and they will send you a new one free" they really mean it. I received a new replacement hose in ten days. They even paid UPS charges!
