And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
This item was presented here sometime in the recent past. My comment back then was that I purchased two of these P.O.S. hoses and the thin stainless-steel outside was no better than thin aluminum. It bent easily. The inner cheap plastic hose kinked and leaked. Save you money and purchase a standard non-kinking rubber hose.
I bought two of Sears best rubber hoses back in 1990 or 91. I still use them. Have had to replace some of the fittings but the hoses are in great condition.
It is a shame that you-all got taken by false claims. I went to a local farm and tractor supply store (called "Big R") and purchased a very heavy rubber hose that was what they claimed to be their best one in their inventory. It has not yet kinked. I am on my second summer of watering my trees. So far, so good.
Bought (4) 100' x 3/4" hoses a couple years ago after I finally got pissed for the last time over the trash hoses we struggled with for decades. For good quality garden hoses expect to pay between 50 cents and 1 dollar a foot.
Looks like the BX we used to wire houses with in the 50s
ReplyDeleteRip off! 3/8 "inner diameter

ReplyDeleteBuy a good rubber hose, keep it out of the sun, & it will last & remain relatively kinkless for quite a while.

DeleteJust the thing for the man who waters his lawn dressed in full armor.
ReplyDeleteI've bought several expensive "kink-free" hoses. It is a lie.
ReplyDeleteThe only kink free hose is called a pipe. Anything else is false advertising.

DeleteI don't mind a little kink now and again, but not in my hose.
ReplyDeleteJust a touch of Peyronie's maybe?
