Description

If you’re a professional that uses a garden hose everyday you won’t have to worry about getting your use out of this hose. If you’re just a hobby gardener or weekend yard waterer you might not use it as much as you’re hoping to. But overall it should reduce your level of straining and fighting with your current hose due to its lightweight nature and shrinking ability. Its pretty obvious that the person who wrote this article didnt actually try the hose or compare it to the old version. You can tell for multiple reasons. So thanks for giving this your “Thumbs up rating” based on not actually using it for one second. You are just influencing people into buying this piece of crap when clearly every should be staying away from it until they work out their quality and customer service issues. This has been way too much writing. There is a ‘FIX’ that can be done at disassembly that will permanently fix the problem so the repair need not be done ever again, but that will have to wait for another time. If anyone wants to go further with the permanent fix, post your request and I will advise. Steve

Bought the x-hose pro, with the brass fittings, last summer and used it a couple times per month. At the end of the season, I stored it inside my house away from the cold. We looked at performance and ease of use, but we focused on eco credentials, too. Water is a precious resource and it’s vital a spray gun doesn’t leak or drip, wasting water every time you use it. A controllable flow option that adjusts the volume of water from 40-100 per cent is also helpful and finally, we noted whether we thought the guns were robust enough to last for longer than just a single summer. Bought two of these, the first one blew the end off where you screw it onto your spigot and the other I only use sparingly. They are no better than the initial hoses, just cost more and are defective in a different area. Absolute crap. Here’s an idea, make an xhose pro repair kit for your crappy hoses and we wouldn’t care as much. I have returned 4 x-pro hoses for leaks. Now I have 8 hoses, 2 25′, 2 50′ and 2 75′ that don’t leak. Happy? Not quite. 6 of them have lost their on/off turn knobs. The valves have no dents, we use them carefully. I assume they were on when I go them, but I’ve been using them a lot lately and realized that I can’t turn them off without having a spray head. I really need replacement knobs and the screws for them. Customer service told me that they would replace a few hoses but I try to be environmentally correct and replacing the hoses seems to be a really bad idea. I’m also in California where water rationing is a serious reality. Please send me the replacement parts. I have disputed the charge with my credit card company and have not yet resolved this issue, so I have not used the xhoses they sent me as I am waiting to return them whenever the dispute is resolved.

Customer Service

Even if the regular hoses were to break, they are much easier to repair and much cheaper than paying any S/H to replace them. I bought four of these the end of last season. One blow out the third time I used it this season and I just replaced it with one out of the bag. It blow out immediately. The other tip is to use a nozzle on the end of it, like a spray gun. While it isn’t necessary, it will get you the best results possible and will increase the likelihood that you’ll enjoy the experience. This will give you added accuracy for what you’re spraying, and it will make the entire process of using the hose more enjoyable and easier on the hands. Plenty of reports and chatter on the Internet about Xhoses exploding (like mine did) or leaking (like mine did) or not lasting very long. Turns out there was a tear or some sort of mis-manufacture in the blue material along the length of the hose leaving a gap. Whatever is inside (rubber I think) tried to escape via the hole with water in it and simply exploded.

They do exist! There are hoses that say they’re safe for drinking. We bought one from Home Depot. It happened to be blue. It costs more than your regular hoses. Nice to know, but we’ve never really needed that extra feature (we use it for washing cars, watering non-fruit/veg plants), so we probably wasted our money. Might be good for your uses, however. Brought from Meijers this summer with a bunch of other things. Didn’t end up using until last week to spary my lawn for weeds. Attached a lawn weed sprayer to the end of the hose and turned it on. I stretched it from my detached garage to the side of my house attached it to the spigot and turned on the water. It blew up like a water balloon. I tried calling a few numbers I found on the web. Most of them said that I need the reciept to exchange it even if I had the box and the bad one. This thing is crap, I’d just like everyone to know not to buy one. it’s reinforced high grade drag resistant DAC-5™ polyester outer layer is specially woven to make it tougher and stronger than ever! Next thing you know, theres this bulge appearing from the hose length about two thirds of the way down and it pops and water starts shooting out. My only thoughts are that people want one because they just do, its a fad, the next door neighbour has one, they’ve seen it on TV repeatedly and just buy it – even if its badly made.

Final XHOSE PRO Review

I just got my hoses today after waiting 9 weeks to get it in my hand. I connected it to the spigot and turned the water on…BOOM it swelled up and popped and started spraying water everywhere!! This time the hose decided to do something different, the connector worked and water started flowing through (yes!) but after a few seconds, the hose started expanding strangely.
