Zero-g 4001-50 Kink Resistant Garden Hose, 5/8" X 50', Black

Best garden hose ever!!! Easy to use, easy to roll up and store! I have four of them!!!

I probably own six of these 50 foot Zero G garden hoses. I originally found them in the local discount store but for the last couple of years, the only place I’ve been able to locate them is on Amazon. Before finding these, I was replacing one hose per year minimum as they would split and crack and leak. So far, none of these have had any problems. I string a bunch together and run them to various parts of my yard and garden. The quality of the couplings is outstanding, and the fabric like construction of the hose is very light, and easy to move, and best of all, they hardly ever kink! I refuse to buy any other hose, these cost a bit more but not if you consider they don’t break or leak, even after a few years. I caught two of them on Amazon and put them in my cart, but forgot to order. A couple of days later they went on sale for the same price I paid last year so I quickly ordered. I ordered more as my relatives are starting to come by and borrow mine, so they are hard to keep around!

Several years ago, I ordered 2 50 foot hoses and connected them. One of the hoses burst but I couldn’t seperate it from the still functional hose. I liked this hose so much but this time I ordered a 50 foot for one faucet and a 25 foot for a second faucet.

GREAT BUT VERY HEAVY . IF YOUR A OLDER PERSON I WOULD NOT ORDER THIS HOSE

I love these zero G hoses. They are not like the expandable hoses with no water pressure but they are just as lightweight! I have a retractable hose whose bracket broke and I needed a hose to use in the meantime. A friend had these and I tried theirs and immediately ordered two for myself. Very easy to wind back up on the hose holder, too. Who wants to fight with a hose when it’s 109 degrees outside? Watering is a chore so go ahead and make it easier on yourself and try one of these hoses.

This is a very tough, all-purpose hose that we use year-around. Unlike other products like this, this one has not failed due to stretching, pulling, or temperature. The last one we bought has been in use over 2 years.

I am writing this addendum to my review below. Initially I loved this hose. I’ve had in for two weeks and suddenly it is leaking from under the plastic that mounts to the hose. See photo attached. I have added an additional hose washer but the leak is coming from within the hose end in an inaccessible part. I don’t want to return this but it leaks way more than it should. Probably a manufacturing defect. I will return it and try for a replacement.——-I bought the Zero G as a replacement for an older collapsible hose that broke after two years of use. First let me tell you the flow rate seems double that of the traditional collapsible hoses. I like the fact that it contains no lead. The only down side is that you it can kink, but this can be avoided by laying it out a bit before turning on the water. Simply said it has the flow rate of a traditional hose with half the weight.

Happy with the weight, easy to maneuver. Only issue is the kinking. I need to drag the hose around the yard to water plants, as I do that kinks occur and I have to stop watering, walk back to the kink and straighten it. The issue was infrequent at first but seems to be getting worse as time goes on (3 months of use). I would still buy it again as I strongly prefer it over a heavy hose.
