| It is nice having a long hose. I love the lifetime warranty. You don't see many of those anymore. I like the connection to the faucet. If it came in a longer size I would have gotten that. |

| I like this Gilmour hose but I should have ordered the 3/4 size because I have low water pressure. The platinum series does not come in the bigger 3/4 size. The 5/8 size it does come in should work for most people though and the other Gilmour style hoses do come in the bigger size if you need it. Overall, it is a nice hose and I like how easy the fittings are to work with. Just wish I had known what size was best for me before ordering. |
| FINALLY a hose that doesn't kink! | 2010-06-11 | 5 / 5 |

| This is the best hose I've ever used. I'm a volunteer gardener for a local church. They have several gardens that are located around a large parking lot and patio so I need a long hose (75-100ft). One of the most frustrating things for me is that my older hoses would inevitably kink as I wandered from one area to another (FYI, there is no such thing as a "no-kink" hose). I finally took a chance and invested in a more expensive and "serious" hose. I can guarantee you it was worth every penny! The hose is very sturdy and doesn't come off the reel kinked. Nor does the hose come out like a spring needing a lot of straightening out. The hose only kinks if I'm dragging it from one area to another 70 feet away - and then it's only been one kink. The hose is so sturdy that it shakes out nice and stays unkinked! Lower-grade hoses have a tendency to "crease" which can cause the hose to get kinked again - right after you go back to watering or when you are reeling the hose in and want to go home. This hose just glides back into my hose reel. If you don't have a big area to maintain the less expensive hoses are fine. This hose is perfect for large grounds and for trades persons who need to drag a hose around on various jobs. Thank you Gilmour! |

I purchased this black hose so long ago I don't remember. I used it myself for years. Then I purchased a home, used it there and then had a job move which required me to rent. I left the hose in the front yard in the hopes it would encourage the tenant(s) to water the lawn.
This hose survived being on the ground on a WEST facing EXTREMELY HOT Florida lawn with no shade or cover for 14 years. The tenants rarely wrapped it on its hose holder and mostly left it on the ground. It rarely tangled or twisted. Recently it started to leak around the metal part that attaches to the spigot. There is life guarantee with the hose and all you have to do is cut off the defective end and mail it it to get a new one. I purchased this Gilmour hose to replace the Wal-Mart piece of crap hose in my backyard which is permanently crimped and leaking in several places after only a few years.

| THIS IS A SUPERIOR GARDEN HOSE | 2009-11-12 | 5 / 5 |

I live in the Colorado Desert where the summer heat is quite severe. Most hoses I have owned have a one year life span at most.
This hose is so strong (even pretty with its silver color) and dependable that it is a pleasure to use. Even my gardener told me how thrilled he was with the performance of this hose. I'm going to buy another one as a second hose of mine has just sprung a leak. It isn't even a year old. But the summer took its toll.
This one didn't even flinch in the downbeating sun. It did great and it is a pleasure to have it. |
