Title: Bought for my mother-in-law and she loves it
Review: My mother-in-law lives alone and is getting older and wanted a hose to water her garden and small front lawn.Her previous hose kinked constantly and had started to leak so I bought her this based on the reviews.She tells me at least once a month how much she loves her hose, how easy it is to wind and unwind, and how it never kinks.The times I’ve used it to help in her yard, I have also been very impressed. High quality and does the job it’s supposed to.

Title: Sturdy, easy to use, and great water flow.
Review: I'm not sure what exactly they did to make it this way, but I get more water flowing through this hose than I do from any of my other hoses. When it's not under pressure, it's very flexible, so it's easy to control and roll up on the spool. Best hose I've found yet.

Title: Great hose
Review: It avoids permanent kinks when you pull out the kink. All hoses will kink. Don't try to attach this hose to another hose when on a reel. You have to attach it directly to the reel to avoid a kink. It is a great light hose and works well in my yard. Goes on the reel easily and easy to maneuver it around in the yard. I wish the price was lower but I am happy I bought it. My prior hose was a disaster after 5 months and a struggle with constant permanent kinks.

Title: Great hose--just watch the price!
Review: Watch the price on this one! Don't buy it unless it's less than $30. I bought mine from Amazon for $26.00 in May, 2017, just came back to buy another one, and they want almost $50 for the same hose!!!!!!!!I drag over 200' of hose around my house, as I have a 100' x 100' vegetable garden, a rose garden, several perennial beds, and farm animals. All need water. I drag a hose around every single day in the summer. This is the best hose I've used. The thing that sets it apart from the Flexzilla hose (I've tried a LOT of hoses) is the hose ends. The plastic piece that gives you extra torque is so comfortable to use and makes it really easy to connect/disconnect the hoses. That said, the Flexzilla is good too, so if it's cheaper you might want to buy that one. :)The biggest complaint I see people having is that they say that it's not really "no-kink." Listen people, EVERY hose will kink. Hell, growing up on a farm we had a super-expensive, all-rubber, super thick, super heavy hose for washing down the milking parlor, and even that would kink every once in a while. This hose will kink, especially when there is no water in it. Once it's full of water, however, kinks are rare and are cleared with just a flick of the hose. Compared to the permanent kinks I've gotten in hoses in the past, this hose is a blooming miracle.I've had my FatMax hoses for about six weeks now. They've made my life so much easier that I'm in the process of upgrading all my hoses to this or the Flexzilla (which I don't like quite as much but if it's cheaper, I'll go for that one). So far, so good. I'll update this if they all go to hell over the winter (gotta drag a hose around in winter, animals still need water. Not my favorite part of winter life.)

Title: Quality does not match the description
Review: I purchased the 75ft 500psi Stanley Garden Hose in April of 2023 and at first it seemed like a good product but as the months passed, it began to kink and twist while using it.After a few months it developed a bubble at the base of the female end of the hose where the rubber meets the hard plastic and metal.Today, while I was using it, the bubble burst and the pressure from the water onto my hand was quite painful, not to mention that I was soaked from head to toe.

Title: This is the hose. I will never buy anything else.
Review: I saw a review for the Stanley Fat Max hose before I bought this one. It is the perfect description. "All hoses suck. This one sucks less than all the others." That is correct. I bought 3. Two 50' and a 100'. They all three get used daily at a house with very high water pressure. I estimate I get 80-90 PSI from my hose bibs (I had to turn down the pressure under every sink and toilet). This hose will take the pressure without batting an eye. Connector ends are solid, quality and easy to screw on and off. I use a Quick Disconnect at the business end for to make switching spray ends easy. All hoses kink. These are rolled onto standard wall hangers and that always created turns in the hose as you put it on and take it off. Roller Boxes do the same thing. The trick is to take this off the hanger and lay it out to where you want to work and close the hose end valve. Then turn on the water. With the pressure in the hose (valve still off) from the spray end you can just give it a few quick tugs and the kinks just roll themselves out. Other hoses can't do that and just kink worse when you tug it. It is soft to touch and slides past corners and obstacles better than anything else. Other reviewers commented on durability, but I will have to come back later to add that as I have had these only a couple months. But, the fact is: This hose sucks far less than any other and is worth the extra price. I will not waste my money on a green or even the better black hoses ever again. Only two negatives. 1) It is heavy like all heavy duty hoses are or should be. 2) once people know how good they are, yours may disappear in the middle of the night.

Review: This hose is amazing!!! Especially in freezing temperatures 🌡 it's still very easy to handle and coil up! It hardly ever kinks and it's built very strong. I have one that's already 4 years old and it's still going strong! No issues with it whatsoever! And I use my hose every day! In the summer I leave it laying out and in the winter I coil it up every night! Best hose ever!

Review: Excellent hose at a good price. Not kink-proof but straightens kinks promptly. Paired with a Fat Max multi-pattern nozzle you can't go wrong for gardening and car washing.

Review: It works

Customers say

Customers appreciate the durability, weight, and flexibility of the hardware tubing. They mention it's comparable to professional grade contractor hoses, lightweight, and pliable enough to work with. Some are satisfied with its ease of use and value for money. However, some customers have different opinions on kink resistance, functionality, and leakage.
