User questions & answers

Question:	Where would i find the limited lifetime warranty information for this item
Answer:	What stopped working exactly, the guage i assume?
Question:	I just bought the 3/4 inch diameter hose. Can you recommend a nozzle for basic watering and car washing
Answer:	NO !
Question:	what is it made of
Answer:	Not on the two units I purchased. There are only threads on the outside of the brass fitting and on the inside of the black fitting. the gauge's connectors mate with the tank and grill's hose.
Question:	Is this 3/4 ID
Answer:	The device is approx. 3.5" long. Amazon consistently misleads the buyers by citing the "package" dimensions, instead of the product itself. They've always done that. Anyway, this is a good gas dial and does a reasonable job letting you know the approx. amount of propane remaining in the tank. I always check it when I finish grilling. I think that is more reliable than checking at startup. When the dial gets to the red zone, I change over to the 2nd tank and take the other in for a refill. Hate to run out of gas during grilling. Bummer.

Question:	Is this 3/4 ID
Answer:	free shipping ?
Question:	What is the warranty on this water hose ? & what are the limits
Answer:	I bought this hose a little more than a year ago, and got less than six months use. It Kinks all over, and this causes the water pressure to be reduced or completely cut off. This hose is not the same quality as the Craftsman rubber hoses that I bought in the past from Sears.

Answer:	at first it might, but after a few years when it breaks in it doesn't. the last one I had for 30 years and its still good. no better hose out there.
Question:	Is the soft & supple any good the reviews I've been reading aren't very good
Answer:	Zero days! One of the ends leaked the day i got it. Craftsman would not stand behind their product. Said this hose is a Amazon deal, whatever that means.

User questions & answers

Question:	Where is this product made
Answer:	Swan Soft And Supple SNSS34050 3/4-Inch x 50-Foot Green Garden Hose
Question:	How do these hoses do when left out in the snow? possibly down to -20F
Answer:	The warranty is lifetime. My first hose got a leak so you have to cut the damaged part out and send it back to Swan. I think it cost me like $2.00 to send it to them. They sent me a brand new hose through the mail. I always buy Swan brand. I do wish the hose was more flexible. But I buy it for the warranty.
Question:	Are we really supposed to keep these out of the sun? Do the instructions actually say that (as one reviewer has claimed)? That's a show-stopper
Answer:	The company is Colorite Plastics. I see two states; marion OH, and Ridgefield NJ. don't buy this hose. Its cheap and kinks easily. Years ago when it was still Swan it was a great hose and even stayed pliable in winter. Now its like any other useless plastic. I don't know what they did to the formula, but its not what it used to be.
Question:	Is this hose made with anything that would make it unsuitable for drinking water
Answer:	My hose was neither soft nor supple. Constant kinking, and very difficult to coil. The only exception occurred on warm days when it was out in the sun for a while. Then it was okay. Unfortunately, I live in a cool climate.

User questions & answers

Question:	Probably a dumb question, but could I link two of these together? Thanks
Answer:	The cardboard packaging that came with the hose only says "Made In USA". Check the Dramm website and it may tell you where in the USA they are located or a contact number. I have found that this hose does tend to kink more with age - but no more than any other hose. It is definitely excellent quality.
Question:	Will this hose stand up to vehicles running over it? I need a hose that I can run across the road and will withstand an occassional car
Answer:	I dont leave them out in the snow and probably wouldnt either.
Question:	What makes a rubber hose better than vinyl
Answer:	Interesting question! This is new "news" to me. I have double-length hose + nozzle coiled outside on west side of building with some daily sun exposure. So far, no cracking, fading, or kinking but also no direct long-term exposure to hot sun. I'd check with manufacturer in Manitowoc, WI 920/684.0227. Good Luck!
Question:	Has anyone tried storing it in a hose pot? Is it easy to coil? Putting away my current hose after watering is like fighting a cobra
Answer:	This is not a potable water hose. I have two sections here in Washington that have been in service for years and still are excellent. I have one new section on my boat in Hawaii and it seems to be holding up well. Just don't drink out of it. Get a potable water hose and use a filter.

User questions & answers

Question:	Is this a complete system? Or do I need to buy other parts
Answer:	It is a complete sprinkler hose. Nothing more, nothing less.
Question:	Can I cut it and put my own connectors or stopper on it
Answer:	I believe you should be able to do it. I have a drip system which is a 20' long round rubber hose (1/2" in diameter). I cut the hose and then folded the end over in half, and then I clamped it - and it has worked just fine for 4 years. I used a paper clamp to keep it folded. Therefore, you should be able to cut the hose to the desired length. Then roll up the end a few times so that it is flat - and then clamp it.
Question:	Idoes this soak and spray at the same time
Answer:	No. One side sprays and the other soaks. You flip it on one side or the other depending which action you want.
Question:	How wide does the sprinkler side spray
Answer:	Spray is about 3 1/2 feet

Question:	Can this hose be used for hot water
Answer:	Only 2 bolt holes under pump metric thread. Also English threads on hose connector not sae or metric so you will have to get adapter
Question:	Can I get this with two male parts which I need for my reel

User questions & answers

Question:	Has the manufacturer fixed the thread issue? (3 threads vs
Answer:	sold these for many years, never hear of the issue
Question:	What is the burst/psi strength
Answer:	At http://www.flexzilla.com/water/garden-hose/ , Flexzilla states, "Max. working pressure at 70°F: 150 psi." If the pressure at your hose cock exceeds 150 psi, this is not the hose for you. Furthermore, the maximum working pressure rating will drop off quickly as the hose temperature rises.
Question:	Can you run plutonium through this hose to fill a spaceship? Asking for a friend
Answer:	Well, since plutonium is a metal with a melting point of 1,183°F, the only things left of the hose will be the steel hose connections. I love jokes too, but they should have more thought put into them.
Question:	is this item made IN USA
Answer:	One person responded that if it was made in the USA you couldn't afford it. But they forget that it costs more to constantly replace it.

User questions & answers

Question:	Is the hose guaranteed for life
Answer:	I believe so, just like any other hose. And it's not a dumb question! I really like this hose. Have mine on a hose reel and it's awesome!
Question:	why is the 25" cost more then the
Answer:	Yes you can. Fairly heavy duty rubber. But you should get a 6-7 foot angle iron strip and put it over the hose and anything can drive over it. Or 2 short 2ft angle iron to lay over the hose where the car wheels run. Works slick!
Question:	What's the psi burst rating for this hose
Answer:	I live in Michigan and vinyl hoses will rack if you leave them outside in winter. Rubber hoses will stretch if water in it expands as it freezes. I have a rubber hose that I have had for 20 years. I live in Michigan and the hose has never been inside. It has been run over by my cars many times. After 20 years it is still in perfect operating condition. Try that with even a 'high quality' vinyl hose. As an aside, it is easy to find American made rubber hoses, like this Briggs and Stratton.
Question:	Does this hose leak at the faucet or nozzle end
Answer:	It is a major hassle to coil either in a pot or just on the ground. It will continue to twist down the line as you make each loop. You have to continuously go down the line and undo the twists. It also will want to loop in the opposite direction that you are winding after you make a couple of loops. Extremely frustrating.

User questions & answers

Question:	Is this hose
Answer:	If you want to repair or replace the brass fittings, I suspect you can. If you tear it and try to repair it with that stretch, waterproof "magic" tape, I think you can. I have this hose and I love it. I have a Flexzilla in a shorter length that I use sort of as a "connector." I LOVE this hose.
Question:	Is this hose uv resistant
Answer:	I've used mine professionally for roof cleaning for the past 5 years. I'm looking for a replacement now as we finally wore that one out. Very flexible, no memory, and virtually kink-free. I say virtually because I had maybe 3 or 4 kinks in the past 5 years, and all but one popped the kink straight in about 1/4 second. By the time I realized there was a kink and an interruption in water flow, the water was flowing again. These hoses are amazing. I just don't understand why the cost more than doubles when you go from 5/8 inch inside diameter to 3/4 inch inside diameter.
Question:	Is this hose hard to coil? Can it be used on a reel without struggling to roll it out and back
Answer:	Yes, it will connect normally to both normal household water spigots and water hose attachments/sprayers. I've had a Flexzilla hose and used it for my professional exterior cleaning business the past few years and love it because constantly running back to find and fix a hose kink quickly becomes irritating. Each time a hose fails I replace it with another Flexzilla. When the host does kink (which is rare) it straightens itself out in about 1/4 second or so. The hose is sort of like a balloon and when it kinks, it loses pressure on one side of the kink and the other side builds up pressure and POP!, the kink straightens out. If you're not paying attention you'd probably not even notice it. Most garden hoses are 5/8 inside diameter so this 3/4" ID hose will give you a better volume throughput. Unless you want to spend a bit more for an Underhill nozzle, the "Orbitz Max Max Nozzle" is the best I've found and about the only place I can find it is at Lowe's. Just test the thumb rocker on several because some are pretty stiff. These have a larger diameter through the entire nozzle so you get a better volume of water flow all the way to the nozzle. The Orbitz nozzle is about $5 more, but well worth it.
Question:	Does this 3/4 inch hose require the use of a brass fitting from the spigot that screws in at 5/8 inch and which then screws into the hose at 3/4/ inch
Answer:	I've used this professionally for about 5 years and around the house and I love this hose, and just bought 3 more a month or so back. They will kink if there is no water pressure or water in the hose, but when it is under pressure, it almost absolutely never kinks. When it does kink, the water flow stops for about 1/4 second, then starts again as the kink pushes its way out. Even after 5 years my old hose still has a fairly bright color, but I didn't realize how much it had faded from constant sunlight. I do roof cleaning and house washes so the hose is constantly around bleach as well which could be part of the reason. It eventually developed a pinhole leak inside the green jacket and water filled part of the area between the inner and outer hose giving me some odd looking tumor looking ballooning until eventually it started leaking. At that point I bought 3 more of the Flexzilla hoses with the swivel handles and love these even more. The built in hose washer has never come out or been replaced and I've never had a leak at either end. Underhill makes a great ball valve I put on the ends of my hoses so I can swap out nozzles and such without running back to the spigot every time too. Drumm makes a good ball valve too, but it tends to hit the handle on my newer Flexzilla hoses where the angle of the handle on the Underhill is high enough to miss the hose grip.

User questions & answers

Question:	Does it come with some type of black washer because after I attached it, I saw this black circular thing on the floor but don’t know if it belonged
Answer:	Is the Inside diameter of this hose 3/4" or 5/8"
Question:	I need to extend my regualar hose. Will this fit and will walmart take it back in store
Answer:	Absolutely...the best hoses I have ever owned. Lifetime guarantee.... Own 3....one is 7 years old....just gets better with age!! UV resistance ....Have seen no sign of oxidation in or degredation on outside of the rubber ...the primary thing the hose is made of.
Question:	I need to drain a water heater. Can this hose handle 120 degree water
Answer:	Unless it is 80 degrees and the hose is in the direct sunlight... this thing is like spring steel! This hose is so stiff if its cold out, it could snap back and break a leg! I am not sure you could actually coil it on the inside of a hose reel. My hose is in the shed most of the year.
Question:	The main pic shows brass couplings then in description is a pic showing plastic end couplings. Which is it
Answer:	When you see garden hoses \ dimensions like 5/8, 3/4 etc, that ALWAYS refers to the inside diameter of the hose itself. ALL threads for fittings on garden hoses are standard regardless of the hose size/diameter. Garden hose threaded connection fitting standard is defined by ANSI-ASME B1.20.7, [ "Hose Coupling Screw Threads (Inch)"] which is 1 1⁄16 inches (27 mm) diameter straight (non-tapered) thread with a pitch of 11.5 threads per inch (TPI). (ASME) = American Society of Mechanical Engineers. (ANSI) = American National Standards Institute.
