Aqua Joe 50' Professional Grade Garden Hose with Dual Swivel Grenade Grips, Kink-Free and Abrasion Resistant Flexible Hybrid Polymer, AJPGH50-PRO

A few years ago I bought a 50' hose off Amazon from some off-brand vendor. It looked good on the website and seemed like a good product by the description. It was one of those water expandable fabric flexi ones. It seemed like it would be good but in reality it turned out the materials were shoddy and the plastic end pieces broke after a few days. I ended up stuck with that thing so I swore off buying garden hoses from Amazon after that experience and also since you can't really tell by just the website if they have any flaws up close.This Aqua Joe one caught my attention regardless. It was a reasonable price but looked way better made than the last one so I was tempted to buy. Also it advertised durability and flexibility and looked more like a traditional hose so I gave it another try.It exceeds my expectations. Much better made than the cheap water expandable type and also better than the standard garden hose I was using before in that it is more flexible so it coils up easily with little resistance. The end pieces are also made of metal (never buying plastic again no matter what the price) and have rubber grips. Couldn't be happier with it.

This hose remained flexible and easy to move around. Occasionally it would kink but with a flick of the hose would right itself without having to backtrack and undo it. It was hung at the end of the garden mostly in the sun and was always good to go. I am going to find a better place to hang the hose out of direct sunlight to extend the life, though. I just purchased this 2nd one and will get rid of another hose that I was using to extend my reach for watering a large garden. I believe with 2 of these hooked together my job will be much more pleasant without having to fight with a stiff hard old hose.

MY Aqua Joe AJPGH50-PRO HybridFLEX Professional-Grade hose from Amazon is better than many hoses I've replaced over the years. We love the color and the hose is light and sturdy. The one catch is it is advertised as Kink-Free. It still kinks like all others that claim the same, just not as badly.

Awesome hose doesn’t kink very durable

This is hands down the best garden hose I've ever purchased. We have a small farm, and we've purchased more hoses than I can count over the years. Even the expensive hoses from [national home improvement box store] that promise to never kink and up being a hot mess after a year of use. This hose, however, has absolutely lived up to the hype - and has never had a kink in it's life. We will be purchasing more of these!

While this hose got high marks on Project Farm, I found that it is definitely NOT kink-free, as it is a lightweight and very flexible hose. It may improve with time since it is new, but I'm mulling about replacing it with something more heavy duty.

Love the aqua blue color. Very light, unpacked easily.Attached to the faucet and to the nozzle with ease.Flow was strong.Terrific garden hose, thank you.

Worst hose I've ever bought. Kinks from one end to the other.
