Professional Soaker Hose - 50 Foot Length Review

I paid $50 for this while competing products were $20-$30 because I was hoping that it would be longer lasting than typical soaker hoses.It was indeed thick--so much so that it was very difficult to bend.This made putting it in difficult, but with enough massaging I got it into place.I turned it on, and water poured out of the joint nearest the hose bib.This wasn't just a leak--the joint didn't seem to contain any water at all.I was kind of frustrated because it was clear that there was a major gap in quality control, but I was pleased when I contacted the maker (Rittenhouse) and they offered to send a do-it-yourself replacement joint (though only after making it clear that they thought it was not their responsibility).When the new joint arrived, I realized that the new joint was non-rotating, which would make it difficult to screw the hose into the hose bib.I hooked it up, re-bent the hose so it would lie nicely in the garden, and turned it on again.This time, the new joint held, but now water could reach the other (closed) end, where it again poured out as if there was nothing holding it back at all.I tried 4 times to contact the company again, and they did not respond.I finally gave up and threw the hose away.I paid a significant premium for this hose in hopes that it would be well-manufactured (it is made in Canada).However, it turned out to be complete junk, and the customer service was unwilling to fix it.I suggest staying far away from this product and others by Rittenhouse.

Product Description:
Finally, a soaker hose that will water the whole garden! Many serious gardeners know that the water runs out of regular soaker hose long before they run out of the garden. This professional quality soaker hose can water up to a mile in length even with your regular house pressure! The extra thick walls means slower soaking for a more consistent watering. The extra thick wall makes it more durable and therefore less susceptible to breakdown. This is a common problem with the less expensive soaker hoses. 100 foot lengths are available on Amazon as well.

Andrews Sprinkler Hose Review

I have used this product before, and can never find it at my local nurseries. It is extremely flexible, and easy to use. The features I enjoy best are that you can change the length of the soaker by removing the end, and putting it wherever you want. Also, you can remove the hose connector, and replace it as well. So, if your soaker develops a leak, you cut it off, and can use the remainder. Try that with another product! I recommend these soakers/sprinklers to anyone who needs fast, adaptable irrigation. I leave them sitting in my beds for use throughout the season.

The Rumford Gardener 30-Foot Deluxe Flat Hose with 9 Attachments #GA9500 Review

Sorry, but I have to give this hose a thumbs down.With all of the connectors and attachments, I haven't yet been able to find a combination that doesn't leak horribly--either at the base, or at the handpiece.One almost needs to certainly wear shorts or a bathing suit to use the hose because it's guaranteed you'll get wet while using it.I'd send it back if I hadn't already thrown out the box (still debating, actually).

Professional Soaker Hose - 100 foot length Review

These soaker hoses are fantastic.Twice the width of what I could find at the local hardware stores.I have three hooked together and plan on adding a fourth.I can't speak to how they overwinter but as of yet, I am very pleased so far.They have reduced our water waste and how much time I spend watering the garden drastically.
The shipping is MUCH cheaper through Amazon Prime than through the retailer's website.I saved a small fortune purchasing through Amazon.
As a side note, the hoses are quite stiff when you unravel them.I stretch them out in the yard in the sunshine for a couple of hours or for the day before I thread them through the garden. It makes them much easier to handle.

Finally a soaker hose that will water the whole garden! Many serious gardeners know that the water runs out of regular soaker hose long before they run out of the garden. Even with regular house pressure, this professional quality soaker hose can water up to a mile in length! The large 1" diameter with .2" thick walls means that it can carry the volume of water needed right to the end of the line. The extra thick walls means slower soaking for a more efficient watering and less breakdown, common to less expensive soaker hoses.

Apex 1025-25 5/8-Inch-by-25-Foot Soil Soaker Hose Review

Liked this hose as it does not spray water through holes like most other hoses. No spray even with water faucet fully on, just slow sweating to wet the ground. Just got it, so have given in 4 stars since longevity is unknown.

Gilmour Water Weeper Hose Review

I have tried various soaker hoses and have never been satified with any of them until I tried this one.I live in a windy location and the soaker hoses would squirt up into the air and blow all over.This hose just weeps and is easily to control with a cheap pressure regulator from WalMart.I like being able to bury it or have it above ground.It is also nice and flexiable. The quality is excellent, much better than any other I have.Recommend this item for anyone who needs a slow steady supply of water on their garden.

Gilmour 27 Series Water Weeper & Soft Soaking Hose 5/8-Inch x 250 Feet 27-58250 Black Review

Very disappointed... the "hose" has no fittings although it clearly shows them in the photo. When I went back and reread the ad I saw that it said "No fittings, bulk hose only." So, it's not really a hose but rather a vinyl tube with holes in it. What good is that?!?!

Update: It's too bad that I cannot change my rating to 0 stars. This hose is complete junk. It has blown two holes and we've only used it three times. Complete waste of money and time to install. I want a refund!!! Amazon, you should not sell this product!

Flexon 50-Foot Three Tube Sprinkler Hose FS50 Review

Several of these have already lasted a full summer for me, and don't have the problems some of the cheaper ones have.The holes haven't expanded in size so they still distribute the water evenly.

Gilmour 27142 50-Foot 3-Tube Flat Sprinkler and Soaker Hose, Green Review

I really liked this hose at first and actually ordered another one.After about 2 weeks of use however, the little holes at the beginning of the hose started getting bigger from the water pressure.Now I have to watch for the position of the hose because it's spraying a much wider area now at that point.I would imagine that those holes will continue to get bigger and then the rest of the hose won't receive enough water to make it useful.
