Very happy so far with this hose. The length is great and it’s easy to reach where I need to take it. The nozzle is superb. The best one I’ve ever had. It’s easy to control the amount of water flowing through the head, easy to turn it off from the head. It has different sprays. Would I buy it again? Oh yes, but I hope it lasts well and I don’t need to.
Easy to use, easy to store, the large hook makes storage easy. The storage bag will be used in the winter when I uncouple the hosepipe. Definitely recommend i
This hose looks much better quality than my last one although that lasted a couple of years.
Pleased with this one so far but have only just stared using it.
Have ordered another one to extend to 200ft to reach the top of the garden.
Lightweight and very easy to connect and use and the spray nozzle has plenty of variations for different watering needs.
Folds up lovely and small but extends to the very end of my garden. It’s amazing, you have to push the lever up on the nozzle for it to fully extend (worked that out on day 2) it definitely does reach the 100ft once you get the knack. I love the multi-way spray handle. So far very happy, cannot vouch for durability as early days but so far very happy indeed
Wonderful product that met all my requirements; lightweight, east to extend and rewind, handy store clip and best of all – no kinking. My life is enriched
I bought this for my brother because his old expending hose pipe started leaking after a few usage.This one looks very good and a much better quality but with time will know .It comes with brass fittings and a water gun and spare washers in a kit which is very good .
The hose is quite light and compact once the water is emptied whilst long enough (around 100 feet as claimed) to reach every corners of my garden. I like it very much. In the very beginning, I had some problem to connect the nozzle to the hose end, possibly because of the soft plastic thread of the nozzle adapter was slightly damaged by the sharp and hard copper screw of the hose end when I tried to connect them. After contacted the seller, they quickly sent me another nozzle with a metallic adapter and the connection was straight away (Brilliant customer support!). So, you should be very careful when you try to connect the copper hose end with the plastic nozzle adapter. Also, you need some time to get used to the expansion/retraction of the hose following the change of the water pressure. Pay extreme attention to the path that the hose passes through. Don’t use great force to pull the hose if it is stopped by any object like the house wall corner, path curbs, etc. Particularly, keep the hose away from prickly plants. Only after a couple of times of use, the fabric skin of my hose already got a minor damage spot probably by stings of roses in my garden, fortunately just the cloth whilst the tube itself is still OK. I’m also a little bit suspicious how long the expansion/retraction feature could last. Perhaps by the end of days, the hose may not retract itself any more when the elasticity of the latex tube dies away. But for now, it works fine. I enjoy it very much.
Well made and much thicker material for the hose which should outlast previous versions. Attention to detail with inclusion of small reel of ptfe tape for fitting the hose connector to the nozzle
I have gone through 5 of these so called extendable hoses in the last two years, but this one looks set to last. Fantastic quality, at a really good price.
Wnt to water plants for my neighbour, they had one of these it was so brilliant that I/We had to have one…Talk about keeping up with the Jones!!!!!! Really impressed with the kit especially how it expands, but most of all how it contracts when to turn of the water supply and drain the pipe though the spray nozzle.
I cannot believe how far it stretches I unwound it and when I turned it on it just kept expanding and with the twin taps to turn it off you are totally in charge
I bought this hose because it had a shut off valve and from the description, had at least a 3 layer tube.
The shut off tube has been handy when filling a slip and slide garden toy, and also it did not tangle. The hose had sufficient pressure for the slip and slide sprinklers to work. The fittings are inferior however in quality compared to another hose I purchased. The metal is clearly not brass. I did not need the spray that came with it which is just as well because it was really poor quality.
This house is the best expandable house I’ve had. Had others that broke when pulled to hard around objects. You can feel the difference in quality. I believe that this is the house I need.
Good quality and fair priced. A little more expensive, but worth it.
The hose was fine when I came to use it this year the part where it joins the tap had frozen. In tinkering with it I lost the little screw. Contacted customer services who are unbelievably helpful and they sent me a replacement part which I have fitted and the hose works perfectly
Cannot believe how light it is and easy to connect. Bought the 100ft model and seems fine. Only used it twice so far but it’s so much better than others I’ve had previously. Don’t know at this stage how durable it is but here’s hoping. Happy with my purchase.
Looks sturdy and has solid brass attachment for the tap, not like cheep plastic ones from my previous one. I hope it will last more than one season. There are a couple of things I’m not quite happy about. The first thing is that it says will expand 3x its size . Don’t think it’s the case. Expands little but not as much. The other thing is that you need to protect it from the sun and don’t drag it on the concrete. 2 things are difficult to achieve in the garden.
My previous hose developed leaks from about a month old this seems to be tougher, although with the previous one it seemed to be a rose thorn caused the 1st leak, after that I took more care but after developing 5 further leaks I thought it was time for a change. The construction of this seems to be stronger but I guess only time will tell, at least this one has a warranty.
Having bought so many garden hoses over time finally I’ve found one thats well made, strong and lightweight. It really is the best one ive owned. Very happy with choice of sprays on it. Would recommend this.
Had hoselock hoses for years. Dislike the crappy plastic fittings and hoses that become detached.
This hose is different. Proper metal fittings that are leak-free under strong water pressure. The hose line itself is comically flexible, expanding and shrinking dependent on water pressure. It’s actually really cool.
And the sprinkler head with it’s different water patterns is also great. Particularly like the in-line water isolator just beneath the head.
Works well. I like the adjustable hose head to give different sprays. Collapses down easily. Bought it because I got fed up with standard hoses constantly kinking. No problems so far.
Really impressed with the hose, seems a quality product and durable. To watch it shrink back to its original size, a simple thing, is great allowing it to be stored in the supplied bag. It takes far less room to store this than a conventional hose. Pleased with the purchase.
Following two purchases of flexi hosepipes which had to be returned as they leaked on first use this one seems a far superior product. I am confident it will serve me well. I use it as an outside shower! Having a small swim pool it’s perfect to shower of chemicals.
Worked fantastic for the first week or so and then started to leak. I got in touch with the company and they showed me how to fix it with video help. Much appreciated and works fine now! Great product and company support!!
I’ve got this garden hose with very well packed, and this hose is really light weight when there’s no water inside, when I use this hose watering my garden, I found it could extend itself, and it’s long enough for my garden. The spray is fantastic too. I love this hose.
Good quality and plenty of brass connectors instead of plastic. I esoecily like the shutoff valve. Comes with a plastic hook to store on your outdoor tap and bag that’s useful fir storing it in winter.
Hose pipe,hope it lasts, it seems to be ok, I wouldn’t have been able to get it working, luckily my son in law did it for me, there was some plumbers tape with i
I bought it basically for cleaning the car. Seems ok but on closer inspection the outer shielding seems to snag on the brick driveway putting the long term durability into question. Time will tell
This hose is very good quality. Better than the cheaper one I had that broke after 8 months.
Only downside, you can’t use any other connectors with it and the spray on the soaker setting just dribbles out and the jet is not powerful.
Apart from that it is a very good hose
Thank you for getting in touch. I have received the hose pipe but have only used it once. However, it seems sturdy and suitable. Hope I have good luck with it. Thanks
I have been using this more or less daily for a month now. So far so good. The brass fittings are good quality and the hose seems well constructed too. I have good water pressure and as a result the hose expansion is in line with what is claimed. The spray nozzle is reasonable quality as well. All in, good value for money.
Good hosethe plastic collars at each end should help stop the inner pipe splittingdue to pulling the hosepipe taught. A problem with others we have had.
I’ve tried the xhose expandle hose by different makers and both burst very quickly and without much use but this seems a lot better and stronger, very happy with this product.
Light and easy to use. Doesn’t get tangled. It stretches magically.
The brass fittings are very light indeed, but work ok.
When you are finished there is still a lot of water under pressure in hose, so if you don’t leave the tap open, the water comes out under pressure when you take it off the Tap!
Very high quality product. If you want to take the normal head off and clip on to a pressure washer you also need to order an adapter for this as it does not come with one . A bit disappointing as it is quite expensive.
Everything seems to be good but only had the hose a few days. Durability really isn’t a fair rating until I’ve had it for some time. The hose does seem to have better durability than the hose of this type that I owned.
Best quality extending hose I have ever bought, very well made. I can confidently take this hose through the house to the front garden to water the basket as the mechanism is so secured I can trust it won’t drip on the way. Definitely worth the money 10 stars
Thought I’d try a ‘heavy duty’ expandable hose to replace my previous hose that burst after a few uses (not this make or supplier). So far so good. The brass fittings are quite light and do the job beautifully. The hose itself is thick and flexible. Supplied with a handy cradle if you want it securing to an outside wall. Delivery was quick, thank you.
This is great quality, love the expanding hose as I can reach the end of my garden with ease, plus it doesn’t take up much room when coiled back down to Norma size.
Easy to use
No issues
Been using it everyday for one week now
Used it once. First thoughts are that it appears much stronger and more durable than the x hoses I’ve had in the past. The brass fittings also appear well constructed with no annoying drips or leaks. Expands well and shrinks back really well. Useful bag to store it in. Only negative is the spray gun which doesn’t appear too substantial so I’ve used my old one instead. Also the supplied spray gun screws on to the hose fitting unlike my x hose. There is no push fit connector for connecting to a spray gun. As such I’ve had to use my old connector to connect to my jet sprayer when I washed the car.
I can quite honestly say this is the best hose I’ve ever purchased. Very easy to use, retracts when you finish using it so easy for storage. Came in a little bag which I keep it in and hangs in the back if my garden gate. There are so many different settings for sprays which is brilliant and the brass fittings for the tap are of excellent quality. Seller brilliant with comes and delivery highly recommend!
The hose is well made with all accessories provided. It is east to use and store with no problems, The range of settings are useful in all situations for watering and cleaning.
Unlike a previous order for a different brand everything needed was in the package. It was easy to connect to my tap and worked well. Delighted to have a hose that doesn’t kink and extends well.
great quality hose and brass fittings and it takes very high water pressure. Love being able to stop the water flow without the connection flying off the tap. But it states no kinking – when water is flowing it does kink and has knotted (although this has not stopped the water flow yet). With standard hoses you can unwind the full length, leave the end 100 feet away and then turn it on but this hose will only stretch once water is flowing meaning you have to carry the slightly heavier hose some distance. Also you must not leave this hose out in frost or burning sun so it’s not for lazy people! Overall though I prefer this hose.
Quality looking hose system. Great looks, stretch and brilliant spray gun system with no effort involved. Time will tell on durability as only used once yet but looks really good quality. Friendly contact from company and guarantee period. Feel confident its a great buy.
I bought this hose last year and really liked it. I love the way it contracts down to a very small coiled pile if you keep the trigger open after you turn the tap off, ie empty all the water out. Its a great design and goes a very long way up my garden plus is easy to store. However, the seam at the top of the spray gun split at some stage over the winter, after several months of use. I tried to mend it with superglue but it still leaked. So I contacted Customer Services for Kettoya (in China) and they sent me a new spray gun. It took a couple of weeks and was covered under the one year guarantee so no charge. Highly recommended.
I am very impressed with this hose. The other expandable hoses I have bought in the past have only lasted a short time, one even broke on a thorn from a rose bush. So I needed something harder wearing and this certainly is. It doesn’t stretch quite as much but that is fine with me. It is also a bit heavier but better than the old-fashioned ones. I am pleased with my hard-wearing hose.
Though heavier than my previous expanding hose which exploded within six months, it seems a far superior quality. Only had it a few weeks so can’t confirm durability, hence only 3 stars.
Unsure yet will write a proper review once used it. In summer time I expect but look very sturdy so happy. Just hope it doesn’t split like a different t make we purchased but time will tell!!
The hose seems to be fine. However it is a little early to completely critique it, because I have only had to use it once.
Suggest you ask for ratings mid way through the warmer months, when one can really have used the hose several times.
Have had several of these from different suppliers with varying success, one lasted a couple of years but the last lasted a matter of months. This was a bit more expensive but you can see the quality is good
This hose expands rapidly to reach its full length. It’s very easy to set up and after use shrinks
back to fit in the bag for storage.
Wanted to get an expanding hose and happy I changed I see this one. Unable to comment on durability as I’ve only used it twice but it appears to be very good quality.
This item seems to be well made and sturdy. I particularly like the metal fittings, which seem more substantial than the usual plastic. I also like the supplementary taps on each end of the hose which give extra control. I’ve given five stars for durability, but I haven’t had it very long, so time will tell.
Having now used the hosepipe a couple of times have to say impressed with the quality feel of the hose. Looks good, expands and then contracts well. Brass fittings are a nice touch. Slightly let down by gun, feels as if ratchet mechanism for spray selection is off, jet is more of a messy spray.
probably like a lot of people had 3 or 4 of these hosepipes and split after a while I am very pleased with this one i dont think with the strength of this one it will ever split its very light but so robust time will tell of course but at the moment extremely pleased with this one and opens up to 100ft brilliant lovely brass fittings as well came quickly well packaged very pleased thank you
Purchased this hose after 2 other expandable hoses lasted no longer than a couple of weeks.
This one seems much stronger and definitely better made.
I guess time will tell and I may update this review later.
Ok here’s an update.
Had the hose 6 months,very heavy use during the summer,light use over the last couple of months.
The hose has surpassed my expectations,hope I’m not tempting fate but no leaks whatsoever.
Definitely recommend this hose.
Another update, because I didn’t store it in the shed over the winter,the gun split on a seam when I came to use it this year.
Easily replaced gun,now know to store it inside during the winter.
The hose did develop snags but definitely NO leaks!
I have had two expanding hoses from another supplier and both burst but this one will hopefully last as it is four ply.
It was delivered quickly and well packaged with tap splitter ,spare washers, a reel of joint tape, brass fittings, wall hanger and a bag to hold the coiled hose. The outer casing is well made a looks as if it will be more durable than the others.
A thing to note is that other reviewers had some difficulty with the fitting of the quick release end of the hose to their tap and I was fooled for a while until I discovered the union that goes into the quick release has two parts and unscrews to leave a 3/4″ union that usually suits uk taps.
Well made product which arrived on time. Had a problem with the Y connection leaking. Contacted the Kettoya Customer Services and had a very speedy reply with very helpful advice. Our problem was solved and the hose has worked perfectly ever since. Very efficient. Would definitely recommend this hose.
Excellent quality product, supplied fittings are useful and well made, once you get used to the sequence of using this hose it’s excellent, uncoil hose from hanger, turn on tap and it expands to the stated length, once finished turn off tap and empty the water thats left under pressure in the hose into a waterring can, the hose retracts as the water expels making coiling and storage easy on the supplied hanger.
I had huge expectations regarding this product based on the reviews I had read.
It arrived and I was at a loss as to how to fit the components together! I was disappointed that there was no manual attached to it, neither was there any useful information online. Thankfully, I saw an unrelated video on YouTube that showed me how to put one of the parts together after which I had to approach my almost 90 years old neighbour who is a very keen gardener to show me how hers was put together. My luck was a relative of hers was around who was able to help me.
Once I got over those hurdles, I have been enjoying my new hose. It is so far a great buy.
It is however early days yet but I would score it a 4/5 so far.
This is the 2nd hose I’ve purchased from Amazon UK. The 1st hose was Running Bulls expandable 150ft hose which was cheap, badly made & leaked, it was completely broken within a few weeks. So it was with some trepidation that I ordered this Kettoya hose, but so far, so good. I have been very pleased with the quality, but have only given 4 stars for durability as its still early days! All in all a great product, as long as it stands up to wear & tear long term.
At the moment it’s working well. No problem at the moment. Gone for this product as it had good reviews and I needed a new one as my last hose from a different brand burst after only 3 months! It’s a little bit more money than I would like to spend on a hose but. With the quality of the product i can’t complain.
This is so much better than the cheaper ones . It’s well made and i have had no issues with the hose, and the hagger it comes with is very handy for storing . I would recommend it .
love this hose it is so much sturdier than my old expandable hose. also there is a much better connection with the outside tap there is no leakage. I like the choice of settings for the spray. there is one for every watering job.
The hose was light weight and easy to use I can’t comment on durability as I have not had the hose very long. The fittings were good quality.
Very happy so far with this hose. The length is great and it’s easy to reach where I need to take it. The nozzle is superb. The best one I’ve ever had. It’s easy to control the amount of water flowing through the head, easy to turn it off from the head. It has different sprays. Would I buy it again? Oh yes, but I hope it lasts well and I don’t need to.
Fitted easily and material is light weight. Easy to store. Highly recommended
Easy to use, easy to store, the large hook makes storage easy. The storage bag will be used in the winter when I uncouple the hosepipe. Definitely recommend i
When stretched to full length I.m afraid it’s gonna break …not pulling but still iffy
This hose looks much better quality than my last one although that lasted a couple of years.
Pleased with this one so far but have only just stared using it.
Have ordered another one to extend to 200ft to reach the top of the garden.
Lightweight and very easy to connect and use and the spray nozzle has plenty of variations for different watering needs.
Very easy to use . Lightweight and easy to connect and coil up when finished
It does what I bought it for and is plenty long enough for my garden.
Very good quality hose, I was pleasantly surprised by the quality and no leaks at either end when attached to the tap.
I would definitely recommend.
This is a replacement for two hoses, one which burst on its second use.
So far this seems a great improveme
Folds up lovely and small but extends to the very end of my garden. It’s amazing, you have to push the lever up on the nozzle for it to fully extend (worked that out on day 2) it definitely does reach the 100ft once you get the knack. I love the multi-way spray handle. So far very happy, cannot vouch for durability as early days but so far very happy indeed
Wonderful product that met all my requirements; lightweight, east to extend and rewind, handy store clip and best of all – no kinking. My life is enriched

The hose was fine when I came to use it this year the part where it joins the tap had frozen. In tinkering with it I lost the little screw. Contacted customer services who are unbelievably helpful and they sent me a replacement part which I have fitted and the hose works perfectly
Had many different garden hoses that always leak or break but this is BRILLIANT.
Tap fitting has damaged rim preventing easy screw turn.
Needs to be replaced.
This hose is so easy to use with long reach,and great nozzle with different settings.Very pleased with purchase.
Is there an extension pack? Totally enough length for the back garden but front garden there isn’t enough length
Cannot believe how light it is and easy to connect. Bought the 100ft model and seems fine. Only used it twice so far but it’s so much better than others I’ve had previously. Don’t know at this stage how durable it is but here’s hoping. Happy with my purchase.

Excellent service as usual, haven’t actually used it yet, but it looks good quality
This garden hose, is so compact. Perfectly light and easy to use. Good quality.Highly recommend. Thankyou
Used only a couple of times but easy to set up, good head, with a wide variety of different settings and pressure control.
75 ft when full extended which means it is fairly taunt. I found it about 10m short than what I though
The best hose etc that I have bought. The fitting on is is very strong. New type. Very impressed.
It was the desired length able to go through the house to wash the ca
Use it wash my car,no problems with leaks,build quality much better than my old one.
Always struggled with plastic hoses up allotment this makes things so much easie

Bought this hose one month ago and it is now spraying water from its side very disappointed cannot even able to contact the selle
The length was just right it was easy to use but I did find it a little on the heavy side but overall I love it.
Following two purchases of flexi hosepipes which had to be returned as they leaked on first use this one seems a far superior product. I am confident it will serve me well. I use it as an outside shower! Having a small swim pool it’s perfect to shower of chemicals.

The product is lightweight and looks good, but time will tell on durability.
This is the second hose I have purchased. I needed another for the front of the house the hose never kinks and is super long. Well done it’s grea
I have been using this more or less daily for a month now. So far so good. The brass fittings are good quality and the hose seems well constructed too.

The hose pipe is excellent, lightweight, easy to use and it stores away nicely once the hosepipe is drained.
I am very happy with the hose pipe
Package arrived safely and it was very easy to connect to the outside tap.Hoping to use for car washing soon.
Very happy with the product, have had a number of spending hoses but this is far the best on the market. Would recommend this hose as it’s the best.
Everything seems to be good but only had the hose a few days. Durability really isn’t a fair rating until I’ve had it for some time. The hose does seem to have better durability than the hose of this type that I owned.

Expands well and shrinks back really well. Useful bag to store it in. Only negative is the spray gun which doesn’t appear too substantial so I’ve used my old one instead. Also the supplied spray gun screws on to the hose fitting unlike my x hose. There is no push fit connector for connecting to a spray gun. As such I’ve had to use my old connector to connect to my jet sprayer when I washed the car.
I can quite honestly say this is the best hose I’ve ever purchased. Very easy to use, retracts when you finish using it so easy for storage. Came in a little bag which I keep it in and hangs in the back if my garden gate. There are so many different settings for sprays which is brilliant and the brass fittings for the tap are of excellent quality. Seller brilliant with comes and delivery highly recommend!
Replaced my other hose which was leaking have used about 3 times so far and seemed really good the brass fittings makes the difference would recommend
The hose is well made with all accessories provided. It is east to use and store with no problems, The range of settings are useful in all situations for watering and cleaning.
Unlike a previous order for a different brand everything needed was in the package. It was easy to connect to my tap and worked well. Delighted to have a hose that doesn’t kink and extends well.
Perfect watering hose, doesn’t kink, light weight, easy to connect to tap, strong metal fittings Excellent quality product.
great quality hose and brass fittings and it takes very high water pressure. Love being able to stop the water flow without the connection flying off the tap. But it states no kinking – when water is flowing it does kink and has knotted (although this has not stopped the water flow yet). With standard hoses you can unwind the full length, leave the end 100 feet away and then turn it on but this hose will only stretch once water is flowing meaning you have to carry the slightly heavier hose some distance. Also you must not leave this hose out in frost or burning sun so it’s not for lazy people! Overall though I prefer this hose.
Quality looking hose system. Great looks, stretch and brilliant spray gun system with no effort involved. Time will tell on durability as only used once yet but looks really good quality. Friendly contact from company and guarantee period. Feel confident its a great buy.
This seems to be a good quality product.only used once up to now, but very pleased with this hose.
I bought this hose last year and really liked it. I love the way it contracts down to a very small coiled pile if you keep the trigger open after you turn the tap off, ie empty all the water out. Its a great design and goes a very long way up my garden plus is easy to store. However, the seam at the top of the spray gun split at some stage over the winter, after several months of use. I tried to mend it with superglue but it still leaked. So I contacted Customer Services for Kettoya (in China) and they sent me a new spray gun. It took a couple of weeks and was covered under the one year guarantee so no charge. Highly recommended.
I am very impressed with this hose. The other expandable hoses I have bought in the past have only lasted a short time, one even broke on a thorn from a rose bush. So I needed something harder wearing and this certainly is. It doesn’t stretch quite as much but that is fine with me. It is also a bit heavier but better than the old-fashioned ones. I am pleased with my hard-wearing hose.
Though heavier than my previous expanding hose which exploded within six months, it seems a far superior quality. Only had it a few weeks so can’t confirm durability, hence only 3 stars.
Unsure yet will write a proper review once used it. In summer time I expect but look very sturdy so happy. Just hope it doesn’t split like a different t make we purchased but time will tell!!
The hose seems to be fine. However it is a little early to completely critique it, because I have only had to use it once.
Suggest you ask for ratings mid way through the warmer months, when one can really have used the hose several times.
Have had several of these from different suppliers with varying success, one lasted a couple of years but the last lasted a matter of months. This was a bit more expensive but you can see the quality is good
This hose expands rapidly to reach its full length. It’s very easy to set up and after use shrinks
back to fit in the bag for storage.
Wanted to get an expanding hose and happy I changed I see this one. Unable to comment on durability as I’ve only used it twice but it appears to be very good quality.
This item seems to be well made and sturdy. I particularly like the metal fittings, which seem more substantial than the usual plastic. I also like the supplementary taps on each end of the hose which give extra control. I’ve given five stars for durability, but I haven’t had it very long, so time will tell.
Good stretch. Much stronger than some cheaper ones which have sprung a leak.
Easy push on fitting. Time will tell re durability .
Seems nice to use but a little heavier than other stretch hoses I’ve had. I’m hoping it lasts longer.
Having now used the hosepipe a couple of times have to say impressed with the quality feel of the hose. Looks good, expands and then contracts well. Brass fittings are a nice touch. Slightly let down by gun, feels as if ratchet mechanism for spray selection is off, jet is more of a messy spray.
probably like a lot of people had 3 or 4 of these hosepipes and split after a while I am very pleased with this one i dont think with the strength of this one it will ever split its very light but so robust time will tell of course but at the moment extremely pleased with this one and opens up to 100ft brilliant lovely brass fittings as well came quickly well packaged very pleased thank you
Purchased this hose after 2 other expandable hoses lasted no longer than a couple of weeks.
This one seems much stronger and definitely better made.
I guess time will tell and I may update this review later.
Ok here’s an update.
Had the hose 6 months,very heavy use during the summer,light use over the last couple of months.
The hose has surpassed my expectations,hope I’m not tempting fate but no leaks whatsoever.
Definitely recommend this hose.
Another update, because I didn’t store it in the shed over the winter,the gun split on a seam when I came to use it this year.
Easily replaced gun,now know to store it inside during the winter.
The hose did develop snags but definitely NO leaks!
I have had two expanding hoses from another supplier and both burst but this one will hopefully last as it is four ply.
It was delivered quickly and well packaged with tap splitter ,spare washers, a reel of joint tape, brass fittings, wall hanger and a bag to hold the coiled hose. The outer casing is well made a looks as if it will be more durable than the others.
A thing to note is that other reviewers had some difficulty with the fitting of the quick release end of the hose to their tap and I was fooled for a while until I discovered the union that goes into the quick release has two parts and unscrews to leave a 3/4″ union that usually suits uk taps.
Well made product which arrived on time. Had a problem with the Y connection leaking. Contacted the Kettoya Customer Services and had a very speedy reply with very helpful advice. Our problem was solved and the hose has worked perfectly ever since. Very efficient. Would definitely recommend this hose.
Excellent quality product, supplied fittings are useful and well made, once you get used to the sequence of using this hose it’s excellent, uncoil hose from hanger, turn on tap and it expands to the stated length, once finished turn off tap and empty the water thats left under pressure in the hose into a waterring can, the hose retracts as the water expels making coiling and storage easy on the supplied hanger.
I had huge expectations regarding this product based on the reviews I had read.
It arrived and I was at a loss as to how to fit the components together! I was disappointed that there was no manual attached to it, neither was there any useful information online. Thankfully, I saw an unrelated video on YouTube that showed me how to put one of the parts together after which I had to approach my almost 90 years old neighbour who is a very keen gardener to show me how hers was put together. My luck was a relative of hers was around who was able to help me.
Once I got over those hurdles, I have been enjoying my new hose. It is so far a great buy.
It is however early days yet but I would score it a 4/5 so far.
This is the 2nd hose I’ve purchased from Amazon UK. The 1st hose was Running Bulls expandable 150ft hose which was cheap, badly made & leaked, it was completely broken within a few weeks. So it was with some trepidation that I ordered this Kettoya hose, but so far, so good. I have been very pleased with the quality, but have only given 4 stars for durability as its still early days! All in all a great product, as long as it stands up to wear & tear long term.
At the moment it’s working well. No problem at the moment. Gone for this product as it had good reviews and I needed a new one as my last hose from a different brand burst after only 3 months! It’s a little bit more money than I would like to spend on a hose but. With the quality of the product i can’t complain.
Brilliant hose pipe, really easy to use and the double tap fitting is extremely helpful
This is so much better than the cheaper ones . It’s well made and i have had no issues with the hose, and the hagger it comes with is very handy for storing . I would recommend it .
Light and easily handled. Good fixings and Selection spray heads. 100ft reaches right round garden. Very pleased with it.
love this hose it is so much sturdier than my old expandable hose. also there is a much better connection with the outside tap there is no leakage. I like the choice of settings for the spray. there is one for every watering job.
