    I have the same hose. It is fine, but do not believe the "does not kink" part. It does!!!

    I have 3 of them for about 3 yrs now, they start to kink after a while but far from low quality- Heck of a lot better than some other hoses I'ved used at friends & families houses

    Rubber is a better choice but kinda pricey.

    I purchased the craftsman with lifetime warranty. Worked amazing until my latest project. 150ft air hose converted down to 125ft than made into a garden hose to fit on smaller reel to save room ! WHICH

    I had 2 of these. They kink and needed replacement after 3 years. Get a 3/4" Gilmour with a life time unconditional guaranty. Just cut off both ends and mail them to Gilmour.
