The worst hose ever.

published

Bought this hose from Bunnings,
I have been gardening for 50 years and found this is the worst kinking hose I have ever experienced, absolutely terrible for older Australian, you need to keep bending over to untangle the knots.
Sorry to say this, the product is rubbish do not buy.

Purchased in June 2021 at Bunnings Warehouse.

Don't buy it!!

This hose is terrible, so much for kink resistant!!. Kinks continually. Not sure where they get there rating from. Unfortunately I only read kink resistant before buying it. Should have looked closer. Not exactly cheap for a hose that kinks continually. Unbelievable that they claim it is kink resistant. Just shows don't trust the packaging.

Terrible

This hose is expensive and useless. It kinks all the time despite being apparently kink-resistant. Every time I use it I have to walk back and unkink it several times. Not flexible at all. Much cheaper hoses by other brands are superior, I will never buy Nylex products again. Had other problems with Nylex products. I also wish had read the reviews before buying.

Awful, frustrating

published

This hose is horrible. I wish I had read the reviews before buying it.
it kinks. It won't roll. it is not flexible. Winding it up is a frustration, it is like a really thick, inflexible rope.
shockingly awful.
I am taking it back to Bunnings. I hope they take it back. Utter waste of money. Do not buy!

Without Doubt the Worst Hose Ever!

published

This is without doubt the worst host I have ever bought. I have the 12mm x 30m hose & I bought it specifically because it sadi it was kink-resistant. Well it doesn't resist at all! it has been impossible to use without it going into -usually multiple - kinks every time. I sincerely regret not taking it back immediatetly . Now it has been too long for me to return it. Never again Nylex. By putting 'kink-resistant' on this hose oyu have ensured that I will now doubt every claim on all of your products.

Readily kinks

published

Very disappointed with the 12mm X 30m version of the Nylex Knockabout. Having a grade 4 anti kink statis, I did not expect to have to stop unwinding the hose to straighten out the several kinks which develop. Only 6 weeks of use so far, and it is not getting any better.

Readily kinks poor quality

published

Used this hose 4 times from day one it kinked so easily. I have had it less than a month and noticed today it is splitting. I expect to soon have to cut and join it. My advice is buy a cheap one as this one is not much better or buy the expensive one. How they gave it the kink free rating they for it has me beat. The only way I have found to use it is to Kay it out before turning the water on.
