[@archiepezek]

I really enjoy your in-depth and informative videos Keav. I have an Uberflex and it's all I could ever want. Thanks for your work.

[@CarsWithKeav]

Appreciate that!

[@micdev42]

Really helpful video even for me here in the UK. I love the way you demonstrate real world useability. In particular you've sold me on the idea of a 1/4" hose instead of 3/8", since like you I was leaning towards 3/8 for the same spurious reasons. I want to upgrade the (rubbish) stock hose / fittings on my DIY pressure washer so that it is Quick Connect for the full pipeline. Thanks for the info.

[@CarsWithKeav]

Yeah, it all comes down to preference and when upgrading a DIY setup Uberflex is a great option. Now once you decide to go all out the 3/8 hose is what I would suggest if running and AR630 or a Kranzle. They seem to run better in a 3/8 vs a 1/4 from what I have witnessed.

[@MetronomeOne]

Great vid. Thanks for posting. I will probably get both hoses: 3/8" for down streaming chem and 1/4" Uberflex Hose for car washing.

[@CarsWithKeav]

Best of both worlds!

[@annagraham6204]

Excellent review again. The difference your channel provides is truly having solutions where others “solutions” actually cause more problems.

[@CarsWithKeav]

Thx

[@CarsWithKeav]

Thank you so much.

[@AGChomperz]

My greenworks came with a 25ft uberflex, instead of buying a replacement 50ft, ordered an adapter and another 25 footer and linked the two. saved about 20 bucks that way. Always a fan of the blooper reel!

[@CarsWithKeav]

Must have been a Greenworks Pro model? I know Propulse makes Uberflex hoses for some Manufacturers as well.

[@ChrisL-rh7io]

@@CarsWithKeav Yup, Greenworks Pro. I bought the same one and tested the Uberflex that came with it. I'll likely be switching brands from the MTM with how much more manageable the Uber is. Been fighting the MTM hose for years.

[@3rkowtf669]

Great review, as a DIYer running good old Sun Joe unit, I wouldn’t even consider the Uber flex hose mostly because thinking it would negatively impact the performance / water flow and so on ,especially downsizing from 15mm attachment to 14mm, i’m glad I saw your review and it’s clear it doesn’t impact water flow/GPM. I definitely thought there would be a big difference between 3/8 and 1/4” @ 50’. Thanks.

[@CarsWithKeav]

50 foot or less there is almost no difference. Going beyond 50 foot is when I would run 3/8 hose. The 14mm and 15mm connections is the outer diameter of the plug. The inner diameter is the same so no difference in performance between them. Uberflex might have an impact on more expensive machines such as Active pressure washers as they have much more water flow and Uberflex has no wire braiding to maintain inner diameter so it can expand causing issues with the pressure switch for the auto start/stop. I noticed on their website they say to only use steel braided hose and now I know why. Over time my Active 2.0 now surges anytime I use the Uberflex so I moved on to a Blueshield Kevlar 3/8 hose. Uberflex is perfect though for Sunjoe, Ryobi, Greenworks, etc.

[@Enthusiast_detailing]

I’ve used multiple 3/8 and 1/4 hoses. The uberflex is my top pick my only con to it is I wish it was a smooth jacket so when I reel it in I can clean it with a microfiber much easier

[@CarsWithKeav]

Smooth jacket is a nice feature, but it is costly.

[@Kiki099]

It's funny you mention it because I personally run a 3/8 OG spec Kobra Jet but recently got a chance to try out my buddy's 1/4 Uberflex and I fell in love with it so much that I decided to buy one myself. Some may say it's a downgrade but in my opinion it's an upgrade I just love the feel and the weight.

[@CarsWithKeav]

I was surprised how good it is. I got caught up in the OG mindset when I first started out. The last year I have broke from that. Glad I did or I would still be struggling with that small neck on the pf22.2 foam cannon. OG has some good stuff though and at times good advice. Just doesn’t always have to be Matt’s way. I like a good mix.

[@DerekGH]

Good, honest video. I'm about to purchase the uberflex 50' foot hose for my gas pressure washer, 2900 PSI and 2.3 GPM. I'll let you know how it goes.

[@CarsWithKeav]

Be very careful with the Uberflex on the gas pressure washer its max is 3100 PSI so any spike could be a problem. they do make a another 1/4 hose that is red in color that holds 3700 PSI. They also have a 3/8 hose that has the same material. 3/8 I think is better for a gas pressure washer compared to an electric one.

[@DerekGH]

@@CarsWithKeav thanks so much for the info.

[@anthonyb8405]

Ive only used 1/4" single wire hoses. Even with my gas PW. I get mine custom made from Kleet-Rite... currently running their 75' continental hose with my 2.0 and love it!

[@CarsWithKeav]

Very nice, if you not putting out 5 gpm and 4K psi don’t really need a 3/8.

[@TREBLEBOOSTER65]

Thanks man. I keep seeing 1/4" versions and wasn't sure what to think and just got stressed about it😂

[@CarsWithKeav]

I mean if you stay 50ft and under doesn’t really matter. Using a steel braided hose with the higher GPM machines is the better way to go. Say an Active 2.0 I would not use an Uberflex they are known to have expansion problems causing surging at the pump.

[@johnryan1386]

Just wish companies would move away from M22 fittings on 1/4 hoses. Only reason I went with a 3/8 as it came with quick connect fittings.

[@CarsWithKeav]

Me too, but got to remember we are 2% of the market when it comes to pressure washer accessory sales. Most of the world doesn’t care about the fittings. M22 itself is a great connection when it comes to being a hand tight no leak connection that easy for a consumer. You can connect quick connects to m22 pretty easily and even if you have 3/8 pre-installed you still need an m22 to QD adapter.

[@kfletcher2005]

I realize pressure is the same at your wand tip, but will you not get more GPM with the 3/8 hose than the 1/4 in hose? I could make the case that moving more water equals moving more dirt. I'm curious about actual cleaning performance while using either hose vs just a measurement of pressure at the wand.

[@CarsWithKeav]

Only at the point the pressure washer might see some restriction probably around the 3gpm mark is only time I’ve seen GPM change at 50ft of hose. Now if your running 100ft with 1/4 inch hose then there will be some pressure drop and most likely some flow drop.

[@nu2comments]

Can you give more information on that cart in the video. My garage doesn’t have enough space for the wall mounted hose reel and PW shelf so that cart set up looks like a great idea.

[@CarsWithKeav]

That cart was a once in a lifetime purchase I scored a lottery win there. It was listed on Amazon for $99 and only one in stock. 100’s have asked about it and I have only been able to find this Shuter brand on industrial supply sites for $600 or so. It is a crazy stout cart with 1/8 inch thick powder coated steel everywhere and no rattles just smooth. I stopped using it in my wash cart videos because I hated telling people they couldn’t get it. I do have several cart videos going over different versions over the years. Here is a link to the cart series playlist if you are interested. Several of them feature this cart. kzbin.info/aero/PLviiGueuNn2XZHqSnVcaePgVg33uEMLB3&si=DZJIHWhkKuaLQ7Fl

It’s a grind we will keep growing. Appreciate the positive feedback. Lots more to come.

[@bigskytraveller289]

Hose diameter, and length, affect flow rate much more than they do pressure. It would be interesting to compare the GPM produced by both hoses.

[@CarsWithKeav]

Might have to try. I know after 50 feet the pressure and flow drop is significant. Main reason why Uberflex doesn’t make anything longer than 50ft in 1/4 inch.

[@edgbandzz9435]

this has already been tested it does not affect PSI or GPM do ur research lol

[@cebasmb8250]

Yes true I order that uberflex for my electric pressure washer, my pressure washer is 2000PSI the uberflex keep surging my pressure washer, attached my 3/8 and works fine those smaller hose are for cheapie pressure washer

[@adamlolley1836]

Great video. My question is how is the Uber Flex after it has been on the reel for days. My current hose retains the reel memory and is a pain in the butt. I am fighting all the coils for a good part of the wash. Thank you

[@CarsWithKeav]

I have had it on the reel since making that video a week ago and it still lays flat. My Flexzilla garden hose which is the same type of hose has been laying flat even after being on the reel for a month. I know of several that have had them on reels for years without any problems.

[@adamlolley1836]

@@CarsWithKeav Thank you

[@DallanXp]

Thank you for video, I’m building a similar setup to yours and I was really confused weather to go 1/4 or 3/8. I think 1/4 should be me plentiful for me.

[@CarsWithKeav]

Only time you really need to go 3/8 is if you go over 100ft. The pressure drop on 1/4 is significant at longer lengths. The drop is more at 50ft, but not enough to be noticeable.

[@DallanXp]

@@CarsWithKeavOh I see, I purchased 100ft 1/4, I’ll really only be using it to my clean cars but my thought process was I’d like to reach every corner of my house. For some cleaning here and there. Do you think I would see a huge drop in pressure?

[@CarsWithKeav]

@@DallanXp I wouldn’t think so. Might be 100 psi, 3/8 has pressure drop too just not as much. You could easily make up for it with a different orifice nozzle.

[@tc9148]

Got this from Active --. Active Products Inc. Tom C Yes, the 40' hose provided with the 2.3 is steel braided, and so is the 20' hose for the 2.0. We've seen some users having some surging issues with the 2.0 using the Uberflex, so we recommend using a steel-braided hose like the Kobrajet for this unit.

[@CarsWithKeav]

Later after this video I started getting the surging issues with the Uberflex. I switched to my Kevlar braided hose and have not looked back. There is for sure issues with the 2.0 and the flexible hoses which expand under pressure causing the pressure switch to not act right. The wire braiding helps keep that expansion from happening.

[@CarsWithKeav]

You have a 100ft Uberflex 1/4 hose I didn’t know they made those. If using an Uberflex I would keep it 50ft and under. Anytime you go behind that length I say go 3/8 for sure. I went back to 3/8 the weight is what helps it lay so much better.

[@CyberSkunk90]

Any hose is going to be fine if you have a fancy reel like that. I have that uberflex and it still trys to link up and what not.. Why? Because it isn't being stretched to lay perfect on the reel. I wind mine up on a handheld extension cord reel so for the most part it works, but yeah. Having a reel like that is a total game changer

[@CarsWithKeav]

Funny thing this is the cheapest hose reel designed for pressure washer hoses you can find really. I could see any hose having issues with a reel not designed for them. If when using these reels I still have to straighten the hose before doing it or it will loop on me a good bit.

[@dlc39]

I have a dewalt electric pressure washer that is 2100 psi at 1.3 gpm would the 3/8 hose still work ?

[@russelbalugo2071]

Does the uberflex have a break-in period. I brought one, not from Amazon, but a reputable detailing website here in Australia and arrived yesterday. But mine coils over itself easily and does not uncoil as easily as yours. Not as bad as the cheapie hose that I got but it still coils pretty bad compared to what you demonstrated in your vid.

[@CarsWithKeav]

I do tend to work the hose from end to end to try and pull out the memory from the packaging. Pulling on it and massaging it with my hands. Another thing is you can fill a big bowl with hot water from the tap and soak it in it then work the hose with your hands will be much easier then. Just don’t use boiling water as the hose is not rate for more than 140 degrees.

[@JMonOutdoors]

Ok, so I have a Gas powered Predator Pressure washer that is rated at 3100 PSI and 2.8 GPM with 6.5 HP motor. I’m wondering what you think would work better for it, I see everyone that does comparisons in hoses, doing so with lower powered electric pressure washers, so I’m wondering if this has an effect?! I’m debating between 50 foot uberflex 1/4 or 50 foot 5/16 flexzilla. Both rates at 3100 psi max… but also flexzilla makes a 1/4” 3,600 psi max that’s about $30 more than the 1/4” 3100 psi max. Just wondering your thoughts on all this?! I use foam canon a lot too, for cleaning vehicles, atv and boat! Planning to purchase this week. Thank you!

[@CarsWithKeav]

My thoughts on a gas pressure washer is to go with a 3/8 wire braided hose. It won’t be as flexible as an Uberflex or Flexzilla, but I’m just hesitant of those hoses handling such high PSI and Flow. No problem using on cheaper electric pressure washers.

[@JMonOutdoors]

@@CarsWithKeav definitely the answer I was looking for! Thank you very much for your help and insight, I really appreciate you getting back to me 👍🏼👍🏼

[@chamuko999ify]

You say this hose doesn't tangle, but have you already put pressure washer on it?

[@CarsWithKeav]

It doesn’t tangle with pressure either. With pressure you lose some flexibility as expected and the loops just pull right out and no kinks. Used it for a good bit before replacing recently to use the Uberflex for another cart project.

No GPM difference at this hose length. You can get pressure drop using a 1/4 inch hose when you get 100ft+. I did go back to 3/8 because of the Kevlar hose I am using is much lighter and less diameter than a Kobrajet.

I'm curious how the 3/8 uberflex or flexzilla Compares to the Amazon. I put together a 100' 3/8 reel with a "non-marking" hose and it feels like lugging around big steel cable once it's full of water

[@CarsWithKeav]

After trying the uberflex I don’t understand why I lugged around the 3/8. I didn’t realize how heavy it was until I tried this. 3/8 uberflex would still be lighter and more flexible, but if I go 3/8 it’s because of durability and the 3/8 Uber still has a max PsI of 3200 and is still cold water only.

[@KenyonPayne]

@@CarsWithKeav I might have to do a test where I see how much pressure/flow drop is done on my 3gpm machine comparing my 3/8 and 1/4, sucks cause there aren't many options for 100' 1/4 hoses, which would be handy in a shop application

[@jtekz_]

can you link the 14mm to 3/8 npt with the o ring

[@CarsWithKeav]

As long as the 3/8 you are connecting to is female. If it is male like most hoses would be you would need an m22 14mm male end and a 3/8 female npt on the other side.

This is the best I have seen for the money. The same one I use in the video. 50 ft hose reel for $89. amzn.to/3BB3iSL Have to be careful what is out there many are for air hoses. Also, remember there is added cost to buy a jumper hose to connect to your pressure washer. If using a 1/4 hose you can get 100 foot on there as well.

[@vectorr6651]

I picked up 100 feet of yamatic. I need to find a hose reel for basic home use I saw a video to Adapt a 40 dollar hose reel. I can’t imagine spending hundreds of dollars for basic home use. Also hundreds for a vacuum hose.

[@CarsWithKeav]

The one I have is 50ft, but there is a 100ft version that I had on my wash cart. Just a little over $100. I’ve heard many do the $40 air hose reel conversion. I myself probably won’t do that as it’s not designed for that type of pressure. I know some mobile guys using it all day with no problems so I guess it works. I just saw this one it’s $90 and comes with the jumper hose which usually cost $25. Same design as the one I have. amzn.to/3OaZttl

@@CarsWithKeav thanks!!!! For something like this can we use 25 feet and still leave some on reel vs on the air hose one we can’t use while on reel because of pressure and hurting hose and reel? Thanks again!!!!

[@CarsWithKeav]

@@vectorr6651 Absolutely, you can use it with only reeling a foot and leaving 99 feet on the reel. It’s designed for pressure that a pressure washer gives. You may have been watching Imjoshv video and he is right to a point on taking the whole hose off as the hose expands when pressurized. This won’t be an issue if you roll the hose up on the reel while it still has pressure then when done relieve the pressure and the hose will have room to expand the next time.

Can this ublex hose a ryobi pressure washer wb140

[@CarsWithKeav]

I tried looking up wb140 and got no results, but the Uberflex should connect to any Ryobi. They all use the same connections.

[@anthonyocarroll5630]

@CarsWithKeav thanks mate it's Ryobi 1800watts 2000psi

[@CarsWithKeav]

@@anthonyocarroll5630 That should work.

[@bevaninaustralia]

thank you 👍

[@roin1564]

how does it compare to MTM 3/8" Kobrajet?

[@CarsWithKeav]

Have not tried a Kobrajet yet to know. One day I will, but they are expensive.

[@mdoyal111]

I’ve used both the 3/8 Kobrajet and the Uberflex. I’ve enjoyed both. The 3/8 is just a little bit heavier duty and I feel confident about it’s durability while dragging it on the driveway. The weight really isn’t much of an issue at all when using them, you really only notice it when holding it all coiled up. The jacket of the Kobrajet is easier to wipe off while winding it back on the hose.

[@annagraham6204]

@@mdoyal111 Thanks for the feedback! Was wondering about the Kobrajet.

[@superado2k]

Great content, as always! FYI...link for McKillans Nozzle Guard is not the correct link...it takes you to a Selkie brand gun with foam cannon and accessories.

[@CarsWithKeav]

Thank You for letting me know, looks like whoever is posting these changed up the listings for some reason.

Doesn't a pressure washer damage a car?

[@CarsWithKeav]

Not if you use the right nozzles to keep the pressure at 1100 PSI or less.

[@leester9487]

@@CarsWithKeav Well, I guess I'll be following you to find that info out. Thanks. Car washes are expensive and meh. where I live.

[@mr.alanmurphy1169]

love it!

Thanks

[@peterocchiogrosso7597]

I’ve been using the Uber flex for years it shows nowhere great hoes. Love your video keeping calm.

[@CarsWithKeav]

It is a great product for sure.

Thx

Never apologize for saying manly!

Thx 🙏

[@ThePotandVineCo.]

Looks like Uberflex doesn’t come in 100’

[@CarsWithKeav]

They do not make it in over 50 feet as they believe the pressure drop is too much over 50 feet and you should move to a 3/8 if running 100 foot.

[@rubenharris9241]

Myth debunked 👍👍

[@CarsWithKeav]

Everyday I get out of the OG spec mindset I find some myth that wasn’t true.

[@cfwebdeveloper]

Never get between a man and his hose.

[@CarsWithKeav]

This is so true. 🤣

[@tigerrider6711]

What’s the point of dragging the hose around with no pressure on it? Both those hoses will be terrible under working conditions. Uber flex is just a waste of money.

[@CarsWithKeav]

You’re right on the testing I have gotten better over time. We all make mistakes. The Uberflex is a good beginner hose, but saying the gray one is terrible under working conditions I don’t believe that been using for years.

[@jezza6575]

OG wastes a lot of money IMO!

[@annagraham6204]

You’re right. You need a steady supply of disposable income to shop their on the reg. From what I understand mosmatic isn’t as quality as they’re perceived. I’ve never tried them.

[@CarsWithKeav]

Just costs too much. The mosmatic fittings and swivel are unmatched in the industry, but just not worth the money to me. Matt has a great niche there with the disposable income people, but he still sells Active and MTM because he need the sales volume. I hate to admit I was stuck in an OG mindset for some time. I was brain washed. 🤣

[@CarsWithKeav]

For sure, his niche is disposable income and the best of the best. Problem is a lot of the time best of the best means most expensive and what products he can get an exclusive on. I heard that’s why he went mosmatic after helping design the MTM SGS28 they would not do an exclusive OG spec for him.

[@zachmulharan9507]

I have the Uberflex with the 2.0 and love it so far.

[@DMCnME]

I’m new to the hobby. Having a blast with it. The OG stuff definitely looks sweet, but I’m rocking a Ryobi 1800, Uberflex, MTM reel, McKillans swivel gun and MJJC v3 cannon. I can’t imagine that OG gear would make a difference to me. Subbed. Great stuff man!!
