Stanley Fatmax Professional Grade Water Hose, 50' x 5/8", Yellow 500 PSI

these are one of the best hoses on the market, been using them for years, very durable, very flexible, don't harden, right color, right hole size, standard water flow, light weight, easy to use

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.)

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.

This is a seemingly well made hose. It is lighter than most hoses I've had for the length and has a softer texture. The hose is bright and easy to see ( no death by lawnmower ) but it is advertised as having antikink technology. I can assure you it will kink, and you won't have to try all that hard. It is far better than my last hose, but moving around the car and porch it does still kink. If that doesn't bother you it's a good hose otherwise.

Why would someone rate a hose unless it was really good or really bad. This hose is pretty darn good. Here are a few of the things I appreciate in this hose. Color is yellow…this is a nice color for a hose, better then green which is typical color. Very flexible rubber. Light weight so winds up easily. Might be best hose I have ever had!

UPDATE: year 8, still have the hose. Have only had to put new ends on. Hose is amazing!UPDATE: YEAR 6, well worth the money ans all of the hoses are still working well!!UPDATE: 5th year. I love this hose, still going strong and I have 4 that I use for all my gardens. After a simple repair last year the hoses are still in excellent condition.UPDATE: 4th year with the hose. This year the hose needs new ends on it. Was a simple 10 minute repair for both ends. Kit cost me 13 dollars and cam with brass parts with enough parts to fix 3 hoses. Love this hose. Highly recommend.UPDATE YEAR3: this is my 3rd year with this hose. I highly recommend this hose. Just took it out after it spent a 3rd winter in freezing snow in my shed. No issues and it still works great. Also it performed perfectly through the summer heat that went up to 110F. Well worth the money.UPDATE YEAR 2:bought 2 of these last summer. No issues at all last summer in heat up to 105. I stored them in an outside wood shed for the snowy winter here In Montana. I took the hoses out a few days ago and no leaks at all. I'm going to buy another one.

I have had this hose for 8 months and it is by far the worst hose I have ever owned. It had retained it's coiled memory since day one and now no matter how it is used, I am continually uncoiling the kinks out of the hose for use. I originally thought it would get better over time, but that is not the case. Never again.

I bought two fifty foot Stanly Fatmax hoses and I have much higher water pressure because of no leaks and it is anti kink making it much easier to maneuver around about. It is the difference between driving a Cadillac car verses driving an old worn-out clunker. I love this Stanly water hose.
