@funcountess Big property, big cost.

I find 4 possibilities, listed in order of quality (in my opinion):

Water Right
Osmile
Teknor Apex
Flexon at Lowe's - light duty, cheaper

If you pay more, the hose will last much, much longer. I see that you can get most of them on Amazon, some on eBay and some from garden stores.

If I have a hose that has just one leak, I keep couplers to mend it.

Good luck.

Jim

Hi Jim,
Thanks for the info. The one hose that has at least 20 leaks is a teknor apex, and the one I tossed last week was also a teknor apex. I thought paying $65.00 for each hose 2 years ago was expensive. I guess not?
Tomorrow I’ll go to Lowe’s and see what they have with at least a 5 year warranty.
I hate to think I will need to pay over $75.00 for a single garden hose.
I’ll also try amazon for the other hose I’ll.need. Yes,couplers work for one leak.
Take care,
Funcountess
