I too have spent lots of time cussing the danged hoses I've had over the years. A few years ago I purchased a hose at Costco (to my knowledge the only one they sell) and it is great! I roll mine since it is in the front yard and it behaves wonderfully. I do leave it out in the winter with no problems. I place the failed models on my other faucets and cuss at them in the back yard!
Isn't it a dream come true to find a hose that behaves?
