Melnor65060-AMZ 25' Flat Soaker Hose with 2 Washers Set

Hoses leak at connection, kink if you so much as look at them funny, and thus will water (flood) the top part of the garden row while hardly getting any water (or none at all) to the end of the row. Even if we think we have it unkinked, it will somehow kink itself again between waterings. All of the hoses we bought are like this. I'm sorely disappointed. They may work fine if you want to run them in a straight line with no bends anywhere and stake them down so they can't kink themselves when you're not looking.

I usually purchase shorter soaker hoses and connect them together, but decided to try purchasing a longer one this time.This 75 ft one works fine and no leaks, but it was a considerable hassle routing the large roll of extra hose between all my azaleas. It's much easier working with 50 ft and 25 ft soaker hoses, especially if you change your mind and want to redo a section.

I got two of these and within a month 1 had a hole in it... not very pleased about...Pros1. can dump a lot of water into the ground in a few hours without loosing a lot of it to evaporation like sprinklers2. easy to move around3. rolls up nicely4. nice drip line for water to follow5. connectableCons1. Not very durable2. more water comes out near the hose connection vs the last half of the hose

I bought three of these and immediately bought 3 more after I had set them up and used them. I bought 3 75 feet hoses for my garden and this does indeed soak everything without actually touching the green of the plant which can cause diseases. The third hose doesn't get as much water pressure as the first two but that is to be expected, we are buying a hose splitter to water separately. Would buy again and again!

2 75ft hoses connected end to end in our vegetable garden. Work great, water will flow all the way to the end of the hose. A few spots leak out a little extra water but nothing to be concerned by. If you take care of this product it will work wonderfully.On the first use, some areas were not releasing any water. I turned the water on very low pressure and went along the hose pressing the seam, which seemed to work to get water flowing along the whole length of hose. Slowly turn the pressure up as you work your way down the hose.For every subsequent use, always start with the water pressure low to make sure a bend or kink did not form in the hose. If there's a bad bend and you put the water up all the way, it may spring a leak.Had "Miracle Gro SoakerPRO Advanced" last year and they wouldn't even produce water past 15ft!

I've used these soakers for years, and many have been left out all winter (Pacific Northwest). They continue to give excellent service every year. I have had little difficulty with corners; unless the soaker is completely kinked, it still lets water through quite nicely. I'm buying more because I have expanded my gardens.

I bought 3 of these soaker hoses. The first 2 are 50 ft long and they work great. Good consistent drip throughout the hose. Definitely 5 stars for those 2.Seeing that they were so good I bought a third one but only needed the 25 foot. The 25 ft hose is horrible. The first time I fired it up it started spraying out of the last 3 feet. The first 22 feet are inconsistent but manageable but the last 3 feet make it unusable. It’s not worth the hassle to return for the $10 I spent but use it as a warning. If you get a good one, you’re golden, if you don’t, be prepared to return. Don’t throw out the package until you’ve at least tested.

Part of the people loved this hose on the reviews and the other part didn't. The ones who didn't, like me, got a lemon! This hose kinks worse than any hose I have ever had in my life and I have live so far for 76 years, and have had a lot of hoses! It kinks up so tight in so many places and is not "unkinkable"!!! You just cannot get it unkinked because as soon as you do, it kinks in two places next to it, one on each side of the first kink. Now you have 3 places that you cannot unkink! Also the water is only coming out on about 2/3 of the hose. On the other 1/3, water just will not come out unless you have the hose going full blast. That defeats the whole purpose of a soaker hose. I'm going to have to just throw it away! It is completely unusable. I remember reading these same reviews before I bought it and thought, well maybe I'll be one of the lucky ones and not get a deficient one. Maybe I will get a good one. That turned out to be a joke.

This soaker hose was wonderful last year and did an excellent job keeping my whole garden evenly watered. In fact I was very surprised at how evenly it distributed the water along its whole length. I Wish I could say the same thing this year. Despite carefully coiling and storing it over the winter when I set it up in my garden this spring I was baffled to see it had sprung several leaks. So now all the water sprays (not drizzles) out at 4 different locations along the hose and doesn’t even come out of some spots along the hose.

Sadly, this isn't what I was looking for. I need something that waters a large long flower bed in half an hour. With water costs as high as they are I cannot leave the water running all day, as would be necessary with this hose.

Sucks if your garden/grow bed have tight bends... the hose kink and stops the flow from going to the end of the hose. You need a minimum of 5-6" radius for the bent to not kink the hose.

Fait vraiment bien, idéal pour arroser les fleurs pour des arbustes. Bon rapport qualité prix.

Works fine.. Much better than the green vinyl drip lines
