A word of warning to those who may buy these: they appear to have aluminum connectors. Be sure to use teflon tape when connecting to brass, iron, or other metal connectors, which are typical on houses.
Aluminum tends to set up galvanic corrosion with brass and other typical plumbing metals, which sorta welds them together. Aluminum acts as the anode and corrodes, while brass acts as the cathode, leading to leaks, white powdery buildup, and permanently seized connections.
Or better, connect, use, then immediately disconnect when finished using them. Don’t leave them connected.

why do these types of hoses leak so easily
@meckmeck It’s probably a thin lining inside the hose. Just the wrong kind of kink or the wrong kind of poke and it ruptures.
Meh is attempting to hose us once again!
