I got one 3 years ago & it has changed my life! One tip, keep a microfiber cloth nearby & encircle the hose while retracting to wipe any dirt or water off; it'll keep the interior parts free from debris that can gunk up the gears. Happy watering!❤️🌹🌷🌸

Hi Erin just wanted to tell you I just installed a Hose Link, I was a little Leary at first because of the cost but then I thought “damn I’m 76 years old I do all the gardening damn it I’m getting one”😂😂😂I pull it all the way to my 40x40 raised garden, garden beds and I’m short by about 15feet, I purchased a package of their quick connect and I just hook that up to a hose I have out at the garden and I’m set to go. We’re on a well so I don’t have an extra well out there and this is cheaper then drilling an extra well😂😂😂. I’m from Pinckney Mi zone 6b. Love your channel 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

I just recently got the hose link because we needed something mounted high to drag hose through river rocks and over a huge stone patio fire pit area just to get to my raised vegetable beds. I liked how it retracted back until it got stuck and I couldn’t figure out how to unkink it. I’m inpatient so I left it laying in the river rocks lol 😂 it’s a great product just think I need a longer hose so I’m not maxing it out. I can relate doing something repeatedly and resisting doing it. I cleaned houses as a second job for 12 years and I really struggle with cleaning the house anymore. It’s just one of those things.

Hi Erin. Hose link would probably be great for me because I hate rolling the dam hose up so that it goes back in the hose "house". One thing I wanted to mention though is that if you have a hose that's dripping on you or leaking, it's probably because the rubber o-ring needs to be replaced. I replace all of mine EVERY spring and have no leaks. I also run a little smudge of vaseline around the male end of the hose which insures that with hard water I'll be able to get the the sprayer off when I put the hose away for the winter. :) My best purchase was an all rubber hose--they are the best!
@vickipackham73572 жыл бұрын
