Customer Reviews for Stanley FATMAX 5/8 in. x 50 ft. Professional-Grade Hose

If you buy cheap you by often;; with this hose pay a little more and you by once;; top quality hose

Excellent hose that does not kink up like other garden hoses. I have bought another one since!

Hose is soft and durable. No such thing as kink free hose but this one barely kinks. Always remember when finished with the hose to release the pressure out of the hose.

Love the colour love the feel of it the size of it I love the heavy duty ends but It kinks just as easily as the cheap hose

I purchased two of these hose, primarily based on the Stanley brand which I thought meant quality. The hose is so soft and flexible that it kinks and/or pinches closed to prevent water flow. Additionally, if you attach it to a hose real, the hard plastic swivel grips pinch the hose closed, so you have to unravel the whole length of hose to un-kink the hose, even if you only need part of the hose for the job on hand. On a positive side, those swivel grips do make a good solid connection to you taps. But on the whole, I would not recommend this hose and I'm more than a little disappointed in Stanley brands.

This is a great hose. It is a 5/8-inch hose so moves the water along nicely but the best part of this hose is its' flexibility! Regular plastic hoses get stiff and kinky unless the weather is very warm. This stays wonderfully flexible all the time! I like it!

I bought 2 of these hose in the summer of 2020. It is now 2021 and the end fitting has blown off on one of them. This is the same thing that happened to kimmcamp (see his review for picture) I will try bring it back to HD For a replacement.

Finally we pay a bit more but get a great hose. Soft but seems durable and easy to hang.

Great to find this well made, and flexible heavy duty hose.

Great hose flexible and easy to move around Plan to buy another one when my other hose goes

Love the quality and durability of this hose. We use it on a horse farm in NY. I have another one that I bought first and it has been flexible and kink free even in below 0 weather. I needed more length so went shopping for another one. Due to Covid store didn’t have any in stock and nothing looked as good so I was happy to find it online. The price is reasonable compared to other heavy duty hoses.

Our second Stanley fatmax hose because we love it. Pliable and doesn't knot up and easy to store.

Best hose, I have 2 now.

Rating provided by a verified purchaser

Very nice hose does does kink a little easier than I'd like but still much batter than most the lower to equal value hoses.

Great hose! We bought another on first and that one leaked and was hard to manage. This one performs like a dream
