Gilmour 'pre-kinks' their hose for you! Don't buy until they figure this out!!
Bought several sections of 50' and 100' sections of this hose due to Gilmour's reputation. Sadly, reputation and reality are two different things. All six bundles of hose were kinked where the male end is hidden by the cardboard packaging (see picture).
I waited for the kink to ease out - after use in warm weather but it's still there and the kink still impede's the flow.
I like the product for it's ruggedness but this manufacturing/packaging flaw is fatal. If they fix it - or at least respond to my emails? - I'd certainly upgrade my recommendation.
