I have two major complaints with most outdoor water hoses: they leak and they kink. This hose has fixed both issues. At 100 feet long, there is no connection to leak. The connection to the water source is tight and secure and does NOT leak. So far it IS kink-free. Instead of frustration, I now water my plants happily and with dry hands and feet. The product was worth every penny and it came with an excellent warranty. I highly recommend it.

Nelson 2520 High-Pressure Rated Fireman's Style Industrial Spray Nozzle with Large On/Off Lever Review

Nelson 2520 High-Pressure Rated Fireman's Style Industrial Spray Nozzle with Large On/Off Lever
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I won this as a door prize and laughed. I figured it would be just something else to sell at the next garage sale, but I thought I'd try it first. I was impressed. It does put out a lot of water (we have 80# pressure) and the large end controls the stream easily. I'm able to adjust the stream from concentrated full force to a fine mist and since it puts out so much water, it cut the time I need to water the flowers in the morning in half. I'm so impressed, I'm buying another for the front yard.
The only thing I didn't like about it was that the on/off seemed backwards to me. You pull back to start the flow and push forward to stop. Also, it is heavy, but at least I don't have to worry about it falling apart like the plastic ones.
Update--Dec 27,2009 - I've now used 2 of these all summer and fall and am still sold. They're great. I was able to reverse the on/off lever by removing the screws and switching the handle to the reverse side of the nozzle as stated in some of the comments and soon found out why it's the way it is. When the nozzle is on the ground, it's very tempting to pick it up using the on/off lever. When the forward position is the OFF position, it's not a problem. When it's reversed and you pick up the nozzle, the handle moves forward (to ON) because of the weight of the hose and you end up getting soaked. It's happened a couple of times to me, so I switched it back to the way it came. I guess they DID know what they were doing.

Nice look to this hose holder, the only thing that stops me giving it a 5 star rating is that the outer edges are a possible area where if you bend down you could easily catch yourself on them and do some serious injury to yourself.
Easily holds a good length of hose.

How to keep a long, tangled garden hose clean and tidy is solved with Strathwood's hose bucket. One not only wants the hose neat and tidy, but its container should also be attractive, as well as a complement to outdoor furnishings. This gorgeous bucket handmade by skilled artisans in India fits the bill. Crafted of rust-resistant iron, the bucket is finished with brushed copper, giving it a more weathered, antique appeal. A bottom drainage hole allows water to fall through so the bucket stays aerated and clean. The inner rod keeps up to 100 feet of hose neatly coiled around it. A lined hole in the side allows the end of a hose to protrude for attaching to spigots. Overall the bucket measures 19.4 inches by 14.4 inches, and coordinates beautifully with other copper garden décor from Strathwood.
Strathwood décor has quality, ease of use, and casual elegance at its core. This classic style and reliable craftsmanship will weather ever-changing trends and regular use for years to come.

THis is one of the best and under-rated Garageworks products. It is simple and extremely functional and does well with the larger items that would be difficult to hang on your Gladiator hooks.
It holds your classic plastic storage bins, camping gear, radios, coolers, small tool boxes etc. as well as a ton of other things within reason - its up to you because the width is adjustable. They hold up to 50 lbs.
I bought 4 of them a t Lowes for $7.00, and on sale at another Lowes for $5.00. I swiped up 10 of them.

Nelson 50335 Brass Hose Quick Connectors, Male, 2-Pack Review

Nelson 50335 Brass Hose Quick Connectors, Male, 2-Pack
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
These all brass unit get all stars. I have used them for years and have never had an issue/problem with any of them. I also use them on my RV water connection. I leave the male end always connected to the RV water line input connection. I leave the female connected to the water hose I use to connect to the RV park water faucet. To protect the RV male connection when not in use, I adapted an extra Nelson Brass Hose 'female' Quick Connector end with a cap screwed into it to keep the connection clean. Zero leaking connections and this makes it far easier hook-up to the RV park water.
I tried cheaper units and some of the plastic (?) rubber (?) units. Garbage. These are 100% quality and you can not beat the price.

Wrought Iron Portable Hose Holder with Stake Review

Wrought Iron Portable Hose Holder with Stake
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Assembly was easy and quite intuitive. Instructions weren't even needed once I had all the pieces in front of me. The bars are extremely heavy and durable and appear to be holding up well against the rain. The only problem I've found is it is difficult to place this in a flowerbed since the soil isn't packed and solid. The weight tends to lean and eventually causes the entire thing to tip over. If you plan to put this in a well packed lawn it should work great.

This hose arrived today and on the back of the label there is a warning stating the following "This hose is NOT intended for drinking water use. This product contains a chemical known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. WASH HANDS AFTER USE."
WHAT THE HELL?? Okay so I can't water my garden, fill my kiddie pool, fill my animal's drinking bowls, or play in the water during the summer??
That is absolutely rediculous. It's a water hose, it's not rocket science. There is no reason a hose should cotain anything that causes cancer or birth defects.
I will DEFINITELY BE RETURNING THIS ITEM>

Tierra Derco Copper Plated 2 Gallon Watering Can Review

Tierra Derco Copper Plated 2 Gallon Watering Can
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This is made in Turkey, but, it is made to old fashioned European standards.
It is a galvanized steel can, with a brass rose (perforated spout cap). The galvanized steel can is hot-dipped in zinc. This provides a very, very strong seal to the galvanized steel seams. Then, the entire can is hot dipped in copper (which gives some pernanency to the zinc seal and makes it very attractive).
It is pretty hard to find a better made copper can. The price here on Amazon is a fair price.
The seal from the hot-dipping is much preferrable to just an ordinary galvanized steal can. Behrens 210 2-1/2-Gallon Steel Watering Can. Without the hot dipped zinc and copper seals, a galvanized can will almost always leak because the crimping on the seams cannot be made tight enough.

Average Reviews:

I guess $10 doesn't go very far, but I am terribly disappointed in the hanger I received today. It is banged up, scratched, packaged in a dry cleaning bag (can't possibly be the original packaging). And no hanging hardware (screws). I think someone used it, returned it, and I got it. I'm too cheap to return it, as the postage probably will cost as much as the item itself, but my disappointment caused me to write my first negative review of a product I've purchased on Amazon....
