These Flexzilla Hoses are all the rage

Lol, you can get a dual ended female adapter to fix that. Still super hilarious.

Nah...I'm gonna send it back. I actually bought two and the other one is anatomically correct. confuse

My experience with Flexzilla hoses, was the original ones we bought had a black line on them and they held up great. I even used it to apply SH.

However, the last few had a green line on them and they did not hold up even one full season...

we use Mean Green Hoses for our water hose and bought another type hose for our roof spray from a local vendor.

Tooooooo Funny.....I saw the "dip"/Kink in the hose and didn't even notice the two male ends....

Oh wait!

You can't send it back for having two male ends......that would be prejudice and could hurt someones feelings

Saw that kink first and if that hose is prone to kinking or collapsing I wouldn't use it to feed high draw pumps like pressure washer that could starve the pump and burn out. When power washing I use a short fairly stiff hose that doesn't kink.

Dougs right, rejecting it for work would be discrimination in today's work place!

Tractor Supply carry these hoses. I changed everything and the guys really like these hoses. Our supply hose to the truck goes through a booster that we use when we have low pressure. It makes a big difference when watering. I will remove the Flexzilla from the supply reel since it started collapsing at a home recently. I'm glad we don't go directly to a pressure washer, it would only be worse.

I use the cheap Black Good Year hose from HD. Nothing wrong with it and its only $25 for 75"

I've got some of those too, Art! Mine are 50' though. I like the flexzilla better if I have to drag it around much or climb a ladder with it. That Goodyear hose is much heavier and doesn't store quite as easily. (especially when my guys don't bother getting the water out of them!)

We have used the Sears kink resistant black hose for sometime now. We are pleased with them. I bought them back when they were on sale for $33.00 per 100 ft.. Now they are $55 per 100 ft. We have two hundred foot on the truck and another 200 on the hot water trailer.

See what political correctness does. Damn chauvinist hoses.

We use a couple of these hoses, the guys really like them as they are easy to move around. We get a couple seasons out of them on average
