KETTOYA 75FT Non-Expanding Garden Hose

Works really well - no kicks

I really like this hose because it is so light and easy to use. I am not quite sure how the durability would hold up compared to the standard, heavy rubber, garden hose since this hose is covered in a fabric material. Therefore, I would heed the warning about not dragging it across a rough surface and keep it away from sharp, pointed objects. It comes with a spray nozzle which I think, personally, is overkill when it comes to all the different spray patterns it contains. It also comes with some extra washers and plumber's tape in case you cannot get a seal between the threaded connector and faucet. Additionally, it comes with a carrying/storing holder that is made of a nylon material which utilizes Velcro to secure the rolled-up hose. It works great as both a carrying strap and storage holder if you hang it on a wall on a pin or nail. Be sure to remove the hose from either the faucet or spray nozzle by turning the metal, threaded, connector and not the black, plastic, bend protector, otherwise you will unscrew the bend protector from the metal connector and NOT the hose from the faucet or spray nozzle. The thing I like the best about it is the weight and how easy it is to roll up and put away. It is not stiff and hard to manipulate like regular, rubber, garden hoses. A good buy if you need a garden hose.

I ordered this over a month ago, but only had the opportunity to use it for the first time this weekend as I was getting ready for planting. This hose is nicely lightweight but seems to be quality built. It attached to the spigot with no issues and it comes with extra washer seals to replace if needed. Although this is supposedly a “no kink” hose, I did have some kinks in it when I first unraveled it that I had to straighten out. But once I got the hose all straightened it didn’t kink back up as I walked around the yard with it. It coiled back up easily and the Velcro carrying handle was a nice addition to be able to secure it nicely for hanging. Although it came with a plastic sprayer, I used my own higher quality metal sprayer instead but it’s always good to have a back up just in case. I’m looking forward to seeing how this performs in my garden through the growing season. The biggest advantage for me is how lightweight it is compared to my old hose for easy maneuverability. I removed one star due to the fact that it did kink up initially.

This garden hose offers a compact, lightweight solution for small gardens, balconies, or patios, prioritizing maneuverability over the expandable design of its counterparts.This 25-foot hose features a flexible, non-expanding design with a 10-pattern spray nozzle, 3/4-inch swivel connectors, and a reinforced fabric exterior. Marketed as “kink-free” and “leak-proof,” it targets users seeking portability and ease of storage without the complexity of expandable models.Key Features & PerformanceSuper Fabric Construction: The hose’s reinforced polyester exterior resists abrasion while maintaining flexibility, allowing easy coiling and storage.Kink Resistance: Unlike expandable hoses, which rely on water pressure to maintain shape, this static design minimizes kinks during use.10-Pattern Spray Nozzle: Offers adjustable settings (jet, mist, shower, etc.) for tasks like watering plants, cleaning patios, or rinsing vehicles. It has an ergonomic handle with a rubberized grip that reduces hand fatigue during prolonged use.The hose also comes with 3/4-inch brass swivel connectors compatibile with most outdoor taps and accessories. The threa ded connections with rubber washers prevent leaks at the tap and nozzle ends.To ensure portability the hose package includes a storage strap for compact coiling, ideal for small spaces.At just 25 feet, it suits confined areas but may lack reach for larger gardens.Being a lightweight hose, I think it may require gentle handling. It may not withstand long exposure to sun or being dragged across rough landscape.

With a yard over an acre, we need lots of hoses outside, so we've gone through quite a few. This one is among the better ones we've ever used. It has a couple of key advantages over the classic rubber hoses. First, it's lighter and easier to pull to where you need it. Second, it's more flexible, so the water pressure usually pushes through kinks and straightens them out, where a rubber hose would have too much resistance in a kink to do that.The real surprise was the nozzle. I expected cheap junk, but wasn't worried because we have good nozzles. But this one is actually pretty good, and we'll be using it regularly.The product is labeled "lightweight" and as I mentioned, it warrants that description. But it seems tough enough to last, and has some good quality in the connectors. It's a bit more expensive that some of the equivalent length rubber hoses I've bought, but I think it's worth it.

I don’t even know where to begin with this thing, but everything that could be wrong with a hose is wrong here. It says it’s kink resistant, but upon arrival, I had to spend 20 minutes un-kinking the whole thing (there was a kink every foot or so). It also kinks after you roll it up, and it kinks EASILY. The nozzle that attaches to you spigot also reacts very poorly to cold weather - I live in Alaska and just spent 15 minutes trying to get the nozzle off the spigot because the metal contracted while I was filling up the animal troughs. It’s only 20°f. This has never happened before, even in colder temperatures, with my other hoses. It also tangles as soon as you roll it up, so it MUST be on a roller unless you want to spend several minutes each time you use it detangling it.I do not recommend this hose at all. Extremely poor quality, super rip-off.
