Flexon FXG5850 Tuyau d'arrosage robuste 5 plis Forever 5/8" x 50 pieds

great product..So far holding well..Will recommend

The hose is very sturdy and the grip at the faucet end makes the connection very easy. Only negative is that it is not easy to wrap back up. Not a major problem, just not as easy as I'd like.

I was strolling through my local warehouse discount store about six months ago and passed by a pallet of garden hoses. Hmmmmm. Could I use one of these? Well, it was 75-feet long and I've always had difficulty with reaching one corner of my small lot. It looked like a good quality hose. It had a fancy handle, or way of attaching it to the faucet, that was billed to be much easier and better. The price was quite reasonable. I couldn't resist. The hose went into the cart. I hate shopping at discount warehouse stores. There's just too many tempting impulse items. I always end up spending much more than intended.

In any case, the hose has proved to be quite good. It reaches from my back faucet to the most remote corner of the yard. The quality, indeed, appears to be quite high. I particularly like the "Flex-Guard" collar, the part that fixes onto the faucet. It works easily and efficiently and is the best connective device I've ever had on any hose. About the only complaint I have about the hose is that it has a propensity to develop kinks rather easily. That can be annoying. It was particularly vexing in the early life of the hose when it had the spiral curves inherited from the rolled coil it was sold in. As it has been used, the kinking problem has lessoned, but it still kinks more than my other hose. All in all, I'd rate it as a very good hose and my cost was quite a bit less than the price cited here, so that made it a good bargain also. It's a welcome addition to my yard and garden supplies. I don't know much about hoses, but I wouldn't hesitate recommending this Flexon Forever Heavy Duty hose.

For those that have kink problems, simply cut off both ends and mail them to the manufacturer. They will send you a new hose inside of 2 weeks. The small amount of time and inconvenience, plus a couple dollars in postage, gets you a brand new hose. I just got replacements today.

Good hose
