Aqua Joe Heavy-Duty Kink-Free 25-foot Garden Hose, 1/2-inch, on/off Valve, Stainless Steel

Love that this hose is thick but flexible. It doesn't get that bend which stops water flow when you're moving it around and using it simultaneously. It also has an on off switch on the end which is amazing when I'm needing to turn it on and off multiple times as I clean out my duck pen and pond and reconnect it to the automatic waterer. I purchased the 100 ft since I needed a second 100 ft hose to get to the desired location. At this length with the pressure at my house, there isn't a ton of pressure on the watering end so that's a bummer but probably has more to do with my home water pressure and water distance than the hose. It is enough pressure to clean out and fill my duck pond and run. Also, since it always lays atop my yard for my automatic waterer, the water does get quite hot (it's 80-100 degrees outside), so I do have to run it a bit to cool it. Not sure if it would be any better if it wasn't metal coated, but I love the durability of the metal coating and wouldn't change that. It's be hot at these temps no matter what. My hubby ran over it with our zero turn and it did chop so I will be purchasing another. This is the best hose I've ever had.

My Favorite! I now have 5 of these lightweight, non-kink, nice looking hoses! You'll never buy "the other kind" after you've bought one of these!! (....buying one more today. ;) )
