Title: Not a Quality Product
Product review: I purchased two 5/8" 100 ft. hoses and was initially pleased. However, one of them sprung two leaks within the first 2 weeks of use. These were manufacturing defects; tiny holes that ran all the way through the "8 layers" of material. I patched them and moved on. Over the very mild winter here in VA, both of the hoses suffered surface cracks (not through to the inside; outer case only) and sprung new leaks. They were stored outside on a reel. I blew air through them before putting them up so the likelyhood of freezing water in the line is remote. Interestingly, the other hoses on the reel (Swan) do not leak and show no signs of stress. I have had the Swan hoses for 10 or more years.Gilmour 10-58100 8-ply Flexogen Hose 5/8-Inch-by-100-Foot, Green
