Melnor Kink-Free Hose Saver

Not just a hose saver, it's a back saver and a knuckle saver! I bought this hose saver so I didn't have to lift my watering can so high to fill it (back saver) and so I could connect and disconnect my hose reel without scraping my knuckles on the bricks behind my spigot. I have had NO problems connecting a hose tightly to this hose saver (I have two). The trick is to connect it to the spigot first, which immobilizes the bottom part so it doesn't spin around. Then connect the hose. If you try to connect the hose first, it will spin.

This is of high quality and easy to use. I use to for my power washer where the hose attaches. It give me a little extension so I don't have to tip the power washer back to attach hose also the kink-Free is great. Just a plain hose can kink when attached and the washer is moved 90 degrees while using, not with this. Saves me to trouble of having a kink in hose and frees up more time to work.

I'm using the Hose Saver as an interface on two Drip Irrigation Systems that I feed with a garden hose. As I also use the hose for other locations in the yard, I was afraid that the constant attaching and detaching the hose at the Plastic Drip Interface was going to damage the Plastic Connector of the drip system. The hose saver easily absorbs the abuse.I have a second hose saver that I've had in the yard for 3 years in the hot Central California Sun and other than a little rust on the supporting spring, it's still working just fine. The plastic part of the Melnor hose saver is still intact.The Hose Saver has done the work I required of it. I think the units will probably last 5-6 years if left outside which is acceptable to me, the plus being that I don't have the struggle of replacing hose interfaces on the plastic 1/2" drip system. If the hose saver plastic finally goes from the Sun's Ultra Violet attack, I'll be inclined to re-purchase another hose saver.I deducted 1 Star because of the rust.

Used this on my pressure washer. Second season and it still looks like new. It made hooking my hose up so much easier.

This was exactly what I needed. I have a brick house and I used my water hose almost every day (lawn, cleaning, and typical house related work). The constant tugging and pulling on my water hose is causing the mortar around the spigot to come loose. As a result, my outdoor spigot is very loose. I re-mortared the spigot and went searching to find a solution to my problem. This product allowed my water hose to turn, twist, pulled, etc without putting a lot of stress on the spigot. Without this product, my rigid hose would apply the tensional force directly on the spigot. This product acts as a buffer and allow the rigid hose to flex without applying pressure on the spigot. I have gone for over a year without having to re-mortar my brick.I hope this helps.

Worked as i hoped. Gave me more space to hook up my sprinkler timer and is a durable entry point for my high water pressure.

This saves a lot of wear and tear on your hose. We use it on our RV where we connect the hose to the camper. It extends the connector out so it is easy to attach the hose and no kinking ever. Wish I had another for my hydrant at home. We recommend, order it if you are on the fence about it, you will be happy.

After purchase I found the same one for significantly less.

Broke off after like 5 uses and it's cheaper at Canadian tire buy $10
