defective after 3 uses August 19, 2008 I just bought the darned hose and after the 3rd use, I noticed a section of the hose expanded to 3x the diameter--the thing is ready to blow already! KEEP YOUR RECEIPTS--either for return or to make use of the lifetime warranty. also keep the cardboard product insert as you will need this for warranty purposes. Buy this local as I think this hose is made cheaply and they do not count on you keeping the packaging or your receipt!
CHEAP HOSE with NO redeeming features .. KINKS and CHEAP July 18, 2008 The hoses branded NEVERKINK are cheap hoses which are poorly made and use the same materials as the cheap ones sold at Wally World and the Orange Box Stores. Buy a hose on sale and save money or look elsewhere for a true high quality hose.
garden hose for no crank hose reel July 17, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Got this hose to go in the Apex No-crank hose reel. Product is of good quality and works great in the hose heel. Hose has a good size rubber stop on the end to prevent hose retracting too far. Like the whole conbination of reel and hose so bought two more. LOVE not having to wind up the hose, just set the reel to auto and it winds itself. perfect if you don't want or can't wind a heavy hose yourself.
Never say NEVER July 6, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I have had this hose about 2 months and it kinks! One kink is so bad that the water barely comes out. Sort of like when you fold the hose to temporarily stop it...except mine is permanent. I have tried everything to straighten it out...No luck.
And this hose is barely used because I have auto sprinklers. Just use it to wash down the patio every now and then.
Like someone else said, if it was not such a hassle, I would return it. Not much of a guarantee in that case. Cannot recommend this product.
NEVER IS A LONG,LONG TIME June 29, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I'm not to sure what to think about a company that would name a product, "NEVER KINK" and have it do nothing but kink. The only time it didn't kink was the 15 mile ride in the back of my truck as I was bringing it back home from Lowes. I have stretched it out the entire 100', let it sit in 100 degree + sun for hours only to have it kink at least 5 places on the hose when I unwound it. It's going back to Lowes tomorrow.
