Overview
A backyard spigot with a long reach to the flower beds is where this Gilmour Flexogen hose is meant to work. It is a polyester-reinforced PVC hose with brass couplings, a pliable grip on the male end and a collar at the faucet to resist kinks.
Reinforced walls and crush-resistant brass ends make this a hose for repeated use around the yard, and the maker says the cover handles sub-zero cold. The limit is that flow rate and temperature rating are not given, so check them against your nozzle or sprayer.
Who it's for
A homeowner watering lawn, garden and driveway from one spigot, where long reach and tough fittings matter. Someone who wants a compact hose for a closet shelf, or who needs a stated flow rate, has less to go on here.
Pros and cons
- Brass couplings resist crushing
- Collar guards the faucet end from kinks
- Polyester reinforcement in the hose wall
- Lifetime warranty listed
- Flow rate not listed
- Layer count differs between listing sections
- Long length adds bulk to store
Performance notes
Burst strength comes from the cord reinforcement inside the hose wall, while the brass couplings seal at the spigot and resist crushing. The protective sleeve near the tap supports the hose where kinks form most often. Winter flexibility depends on the cover compound that the manufacturer calls extremely flexible below freezing.
