Tools and Hardware Reviews of Apex 8605-100 NeverKink 2000 5/8-Inch-by-100-Foot Heavy Duty Ultra Flexible Hose
Customer Review: NeverKink Hose
Summary: 4 Stars
So far, this hose is fine (and 100 ft. is better than connecting 2-50 ft. hoses)! However, it is heavy to drag around the garden once it is filled with water.Customer Review: NeverKink always kinks!
Summary: 1 Stars
Bought one from HD. Does NOT live up to its name. This hose kinks on me everytime I use it. I wish I would have known this before I spent my money on it. I can't express in words how much I get irritated about how much it kinks. I would never recommend this hose to anyone. I wish I could tell you which brand to buy. I can tell you that if you want a hose that doesn't kink, do not buy this brand.Customer Review: Not too bad
Summary: 4 Stars
This is one of the better hoses I used thru the years. It does kink occasionally, but much less than others I've tried (that's why I gave it a 4, not a 5.) It seems to me that there is no such thing as a hose that never kinks - but if it only kinks 2-3 times each time it's used rather than several times each time it's used - that's about as good as you can expect in this price range. I've also found what helps eliminate kinks is if the hose is stored on a hose reel after each use - this made a dramatic difference in the less expensive hose I had to use this past summer.Customer Review: Should be called "Insta Kink"
Summary: 1 Stars
Bought the 50 foot length. Visually, the hose looked indestructible - nylon meshed reinforcement was visible in a "reveal" strip the entire length of the hose, and it felt very firm to the touch. All I do is water my flowers and vegetables, but I was hoping this puppy would last 20 years like my last hose.
Uh...NOT!
Last week, three months after purchase, a bubble appeared near the nozzle and got bigger and bigger like the cake in the old Little Rascals short. The next day it burst. Tomatoes very thirsty.
Should have gotten suspicious when the hose diameter increased significantly under pressure, then went limp and blubbery when pressure was relieved.
Hose name is hilarious. You could stare intently at this schnauzer from twenty feet away and make it kink.
When I returned it to Home Depot the girl gave me no argument. Before I even began my spiel she waved me off.
"We get a lot of these back", she said.
Customer Review: Should be called always kink

Bought 2 50 ft hoses. Absolutely worthless. Kinks all of the time. Don't waste your money.
