Zero-G 5/8 in. D X 50 ft. L Black Aluminum Garden Hose

I bought this hose because I LOVED the zero g hose that came with the house. Unfortunately when it came time to disconnect the hose from the outdoor spigot for winter, it required a hacksaw to come off. Nothing else worked, and of course the hose was ruined. But I had no way of knowing how long the hose had been there, so am willing to give it another chance as the hose is otherwise so nice. Super lightweight and flexible when empty but sturdy when water is running through it.

Great hose. So light. Great flow. Doesn't strech out like some of the newer-styly hoses that seem to restrict water flower too. I've purchased three of these. The latest version has an improved connector that fits even more snuggly into the spigot and has a terrific rubber grip for easy turning. Does the hose kink every once in a while? Yes. But, it's a minor annoyance and so easy to un-kink.

S this hose has got me spoiled it so light weight compared to some of the other hoses I have had in the pass. It does seem to be durable . I purchased one hundred foot hose for the front yard . Third season and even if it is in freezing weather there's no fear of bursting. The third season for the front and bought two 50' hoses for the back yard this passed summer. ,they have worked out very well.

I got this because I wanted something durable, but lighter weight. So far it is working well. I docked one star under durability since it drips a bit around where it attaches to the faucet. But not enough for me to worry much. The lighter weight is the selling point for me.

If you have ever purchased a so-called "expandable" hose, you probably had some challenges. They kink easily, are notoriously flimsy, and impede water flow because of the accordian-like design. This hose has none of those problems. We've had a couple of them for years. I needed another hose for an extension to get to a spot further from our faucet and bought a purportedly super-duper expandable hose at a big box store just because it was handy and they did not have a Zero-G on the shelf. It was horrible. I'd forgotten how bad the expandables were. I returned it the next day and ordered a Zero-G from Amazon. It cost twice as much as the expandable one I returned, and it's worth every cent. We store these on a simple caddy that attaches to the wall. I actually built a stand for our caddy so I can move it around and not have to drill into the wall. The hose is easy to handle and very dependable. Fittings on the expandables tend to tear and leak. Not this hose. Very sturdy.

The nozzle separated from the hose body after only about 10 uses. I kept the hose stored in a rolling hose caddy which is covered to protect the hose from the sun. I only used it for watering my vegetbale garden within 30 feet of the faucet. During one watering water started to leak from the nozzle and then the hose just separated and fell off, leaving a frayed end. We had a mild August and September, and there has yet to be a freeze. For such an expensive hose, the quality of the hose I received is so poor.Amazon would not accept a return. The manufacturer's warranty claim process prevents me from using their claimed 5-year warranty because I bought it on Amazon.Also, the nozzle pictured is not the nozzle on the hose. It's a flimsy plastic piece with faux metal ends.Do not buy. 5-year warrantied hose breaks in 4 weeks? All the crappy off-brand home depot hoses I've bought before this have lasted at least three years in the same conditions.I had already bought a second one, a 100-foot length, before my first one broke. It's in week three, so hopefully it lasts longer. I haven't even used it yet.I'll update this review if I have any luck with the manufacturer's warranty.

Bought one last year & prefer it over any hose I’ve ever owned so I bought another for the front yard. It’s more durable than those contractable hoses but more flexible than a standard hose. Huge fan. 10/10 recommend.

Much lighter than traditional hoses and I think will be more sturdy than the expandible hoses that seem to be all the rage. We've had a couple of those and our experience is they just don't hold up very well.This hose is very light weight and easy for my wife to manuver. I would prefer heavier brass fittings rather than the aluminum but if they fail I'll cut them off and replace.

Great quality. Lightweight and easy to handle

I thought I would buy a leak proof, non kinking hose. Boy was I wrong. It leaks right out of the box. Water runs down from inside the connectors that they claim is an improved design to prevent leaks. And what is Amazon doing? Absolutely nothing!

A friend purchased one several years ago and hasn't had any issues so I decided to get a two, I purchased a 25' and 50' and haven't had any leaks. The hose is very lightweight and coil up inside a 5 gallon pail for storage in the back of my truck. The ends of the 50' seem more robust and a bit better than the 25'. A good choice.

I have searched for a non-kinking hose, and here it is !!!! Fantastic!! Easy to use and folds away so easily into a bucket when done! I am so happy I found it, in fact, I also bought the 25 foot one as well the next week.

Our local retailer stopped selling the brand. Bought Flexzilla as a replacement — what a disappointing tangled mess. Drove us crazy. Hunted for this stuff, reinstalled, back to garden watering bliss. Lightweight, doesn’t easily tangle on itself, winds back onto the reel without the “memory” that causes others to twist. Can occasionally kink while on, restricting flow, but easy to fix. Just love this stuff.
