AG-LITE BSAL3425 3/4" x 25' Hot/Cold Water Rubber Garden Hose, 100% Rubber, Ultra-Light, Super Strong, 500 PSI, 50F to 190F Degrees, High Strength Polyester Braided

If given the choice and it is appropriate I would always choose a 3/4 hose over a 5/8 the flow difference is almost double when going from 5/8 to 3/4 so if you are using a pressure washer you definitely need 3/4, if you are flushing anything, or filling large water containers 3/4 will do the job so much better and faster. It is heavier, and this is a heavy duty hose, but it will last you a long time, it doesn't get all kinked up, mine has been in the sun for 3 years now, and it isn't sticky nor is the color coming off on my hands or anything. I would highly recommend this hose to anyone. Also I have noticed a trend for most hoses you buy now having aluminum fittings at the ends. They are too soft, tend to crack and are easily cross threaded. These are traditional brass fittings, and are much easier to thread a nozzle onto, and seem sturdier when you are dropping the hose to the ground or against something when you drag it around.

This hose is holding up well in a horse barn hot/cold wash rack. Has been in service, used constantly through the day for several months. Gets stored looped on a hose hanger, gets used with a hose shut off valve so takes some pressure, gets used for hot water. No problems with kinks, bulges or soft spots. Best one I’ve found so far.

Good built hose. Just a little stiffer than thought it would be.

Prefer the fire hose type construction for its weight and flexibility but only needed short lengths and wasn't available. This hose is heavy and stiff. The connection ends don't twist so you end up twisting the entire hose to connect it.

I wish I would have gotten a second hose because some campsites I need more than 25 feet. I just didn't want to mess with a 50 footer all the time.

It's a garden hose. 25 foot bc don't need longer in this instance. Like that it stays pliable. Cheap vinyl hoses get stiff in cold weather. This hose has nice fittings on ends. Also, water flows through it with no drama of clogs or leaks, so ok product.

This product is ideal for our extreme weather here in the high plains (7300' elevation.) It seemed to survive our extra UV and heat extremes at least this first growing season. Used it to connect the hose bib to a four-plex splitter to deliver water to various garden areas, so it gets lots of use in varying conditions, including being in full sun all day every day. It stays flexible in the cold and doesnt burst in the heat.

This hose works fine. Unfortunately, I manually coil my hoses and this one fights me when I do. I needed a shorter hose and this fits the bill, but if it were a 50 foot long hose it could be hard to handle.
