Outstanding Jul 04, 2010
By Mikey An outstanding hose. I bought it primarily because I can't stand kinks and this hose, while not entirely kink free, is far superior than most other hoses I have used!

You Won't Get "Hosed" With This Purchase! Mar 11, 2012
By A. Toll
"Snackin' Nut"
This is an excellent hose packing a lot of bang for your buck.
PROS:
1. It is a 5-ply 5/8" commercial grade red hose rated to 180 Degrees F. 2. It has a 4 inch black collar to help prevent kinks. 3. Brass couplings compared to nickel-plated couplings of many competitors-e.g.(Swan) 4. Considerably cheaper than other similar-rated hoses. 5. Mates perfectly with the Gilmour 572TFR Insulated Grip Spray Nozzle.
CONS:
1. I would have liked to see metal tension springs placed on both ends of the hose to prevent kinks rather than one 4" plastic collar.
I use this hose to drain residential hot water tanks. Easy to use and works perfectly.
Suggestion:
Remember to spray a bit of silicone or WD-40 on the brass couplings occasionally.

Good and strong hot water line Apr 29, 2011
By Jacksonville Manny We used this to run from an outdoor hot water heater to a tub. Multiple normal (not hot water) hoses had failed, but this worked great. Recommended.

Verified purchaser of this hose... Mar 25, 2012
By C. Bizovi
"bedbugsevasion(dot)com"
I talked my boss into buying this hose, because it was rated for hot water usage. Well, the hose worked great right out of the box, and I thought all our hot water hose woes were behind us. This particular hose lasted us a grand total of two weeks +/- a day or two.
I work in a restaurant setting, so we need a hose that can handle hot water... very hot water. I still haven't found one that can hold up, though this one was one of the best. Any hose that relies on glue to keep things together should not be rated for hot water usage, plain and simple. Eventually, the seal will melt and things will get very wet in places where it shouldn't!
Back to the ol' drawing board...!
