They are very solid. We coil them up while the water is still on so it makes it easier. The fittings do not leak and the brass is thick. I've purchased hoses before that the metal (not brass) was thin, cross threaded easily, and leaked. These are thick brass and go right on. The hose will kink if you dont twist them a bit while coiling or uncoiling, but not as bad as other hoses I've used. All in all very well made.
I made 2 hose reels on posts to hold these hoses for my wife to use when watering her flower beds. I purchased white fence posts and painted them with bronze metalic rustoleum. I "washed" the bronze with flat black paint to make it look antique. The hose reels were painted that way when we purchased them. I wanted the red rubber hoses for that antique look.

The only issue was my faucets was to low to the grown and couldn’t make fit to the faucets because the hose has that black rubber tube around the male connection

I had no issues draining water from water heater. Hose was long enough to go out the basement door. I’d consider trying Apex for my next water hoses.

Supple, solid, works as I would hope for both hot and cold water.

Completely equal to the top reviews before I purchased this hose I have a feeling I won't need another one for quite some time

I used this hose outdoors for a constant cold water supply for a timed garden watering system. This hose held up well, my concerns are that a cheaper cold water hose would burst in the summer sun being under constant pressure.

Best hose I have ever owned.
I still have very first Apex hose I bought many many years ago. Still in great condition. I needed another to get to a further landscaping I have done. Love these hoses. Does not kink either. I highly recommend.

I got this to flush out the water heater I got years back at Home Depot. I had flushed others and got a lot of rust and debris out which made it more efficient. My concern was that it would be leaky but it was not! It did great! The water heater did not have any rust in it, so maybe it was for nothing, but I am glad to have the hose and will use it again.

These quality hot water hoses are hard to find. I have a set of these hoses that I’ve been using for 20 years and they are still in good shape. The best hoses to keep on the work truck.

The Apex hose is sturdy with brass fittings. It doesn’t kink and will hold up for my application. Finally, a quality product.

You get what you pay for on these hoses, I actually have 2 . One is in the shade and one in the direct sunlight. That is a little faded in color but in great shape. It’s about 5 years old if not older.
