MAXLite 5/8 in. x 50 ft. Premium Duty Rubber+ Water Hose

A:  No

A:  I have two of these and they are fine around the house. They do not kink like many hoses in this price range and the rubber is of excellent quality. I don't understand why you asked this question without a specific point or objection. I am sure you can search out a hose made in the US if that is what you want. Most rubber products including vehicle tires are now made in China. Check your car tires for country of manufacture .

A:  It’s too bad we can’t make these in the USA.. Why not? Labor costs!

A:  They're made in the USA (It's on the packaging label attached to the hose). Company's been making many different hoses for over 90 years.

A:  Great product. Very good quality.

A:  It's true

A:  This hose kinks like crazy! Disappointed. Do not buy!

A:  Hose is garbage it kinks way to easy

A:  All of our vinyl hoses also kink! The advantage of a rubber hose is that it will outlast vinyl 3 to 1 and will not deteriorate under UV rays (sunlight) like all the cheaper vinyl hoses will. Rubber hoses are a better buy for the money in the long run in my opinion.

A:  I have two and have not had a problem with kinking with proper use and storing. These Goodyear hoses are better than other garden hoses I have purchased. The rubber is excellent, and the connectors are heavy duty for a garden hose.

A:  I have had mine for over a year and it rarely kinks. Use it frequently to wash cars or water plants. One thing though, depending on how you coil it when finished using, can coil in such a way that kinks are more prone. Just coil after use carefully with a large circle, e.g. 3-4 feet, and it doesn't kink.

A:  I have no idea. I started to have issues with it, but not to a point that serious. It kept folding up on me and giving me constant watering problems, Finally I just disconnected it, threw it underneath my workbench and bought one from Carlsile, since then I haven't had any problems in the area I was using it and may just cut that other one apart and use it for extension pieces if needed.

A:  Garbage constantly kinks
