I'm not sure if this is the right location for this thread but what water hoses are you guys using? The one I have right now is the worst one ever! It's so hard to uncoil and not flexible at all.. Every time i pull for some slack it always hit my car :wall or if I'm pulling hard enough it'll just bend the hose and cut off the water flow. I'm not looking for anything special really, it's just something i want to replace by buying at Home Depot or Lowe's. :bawling:
 
Down with the sears hose, lifetime warranty. My dad has his hose for as long as i remeber until someone left the water on one day it dropped below freezing. He just took it in to sears and swapped it right out. They are very easy to manuever, you can run them over and they are ok (not saying you should try it, but it happens).
 
I'm still using the hose my parents bought when I was born lol. I think I'll get them a new one for an xmas present :grinno:
 
A few years back I bought a black vinyl hose at Sam's Club that is still serving me well. It's 75' long and has heavy duty brass fittings, the kind you can tighten with a wrench. You can drive over the hose end with a car and it will not flatten. The only thing I don't like about the hose is that it gets very stiff in colder weather (< 50 deg F), but other than that I have no complaints.
