About this item

  • Light Weight - Expertly developed hybrid material from rubber and polymer, the thickness of lawn hose is 3mm. This hose is lighter than traditional rubber hose while being abrasion-resistant and durable.
  • Swivel Handle - The movable handle allows the hose to rotate freely to prevent twisting, the handle can also fix the fitting to make the connection with faucet/nozzle/sprinkler/hose reel more easily and effortlessly.
  • Leak Proof - Professional nickel-plated brass fittings prevent leaks and are crush resistant. Note that two ends are MALE and FEMALE connectors.
  • All-weather Flexible - The rubber component allows the hose to remain flexible in extreme temperatures, defying heat or cold, still easy to coil and uncoil.
  • Wide application - Working water pressure is 150PSI, use under residential water pressure. Get a suitable length hose for your yard and simplify your watering process.
  • Using Suggestion: To minimise kinking, please smooth out the water hose before use and avoid using it in a tangled state. And if your hose is kinked, please rotate swivel handle to recover it.
  • Professional Support - Contact us to get timely solution&lifetime friendly support. Giraffe Tools promises to solve all your problems in the most professional way!

The connectors are female to male?

Yes, it is.

The swivel handle will help to release the hose kink. Also, the handle is NOT flexible, we suggest to choosing a bit longer size.

Customers appreciate the lightweight and flexible material of the hardware tubing. They find it easy to use, easing the weight of the timer on the spigot. The material is thick and sturdy, not flimsy like some other hoses.

"...It is not the sturdiest hose but it is light - which I wanted. Does kink from time to time but un-kinks more easily than other hoses I have had." Read more

"Works well and light weight." Read more

259 customers mention "Flexibility"229 positive30 negative

Customers like the flexibility of the hose. It bends easily, is not too rigid, and leak-free.

"Nice orange color to differentiate from other hoses. Works great, is flexible, water flows easily and ends make it easy to use and tighten." Read more

237 customers mention "Connector quality"177 positive60 negative

"...Other than that... the way the hose screws onto faucet is great and doesn't leak at all....." Read more

"...easy to untangle, and very easy to screw into another hose and attatch to the house thanks to the plastic handles on the hose" Read more

234 customers mention "Length"183 positive51 negative

Customers appreciate the compact length of the hose. They find it manageable and easy to patch into existing watering systems. The 25-foot length is perfect for small gardens, and the 5/8" diameter ensures a strong water flow. The leader hose fits well at the faucet and the hose reel, making it a good short hose that's very flexible and still in perfect shape after heavy use.

"Having smaller lengths of good, quality hose is better than trying to wrangle 3 times that length in a single hose." Read more

"This is the perfect size for what I wanted it for. It seems well made. I would recommend it." Read more

"...The ends of the hose looked like it had great sealing, and it had incredible ergonomic plastic grips to make twisting on/off an outdoor water..." Read more

"When I first bought it was leaking at both ends. One end was certainly a manufacturing defect. I returned it and promptly got a replacement...." Read more

(Updated) Kinky, and not in the good way, unless used with a hose reel.
4 out of 5 stars
(Updated) Kinky, and not in the good way, unless used with a hose reel.
(Update 13Aug2023) Giraffe customer service was quite friendly and seemed to be highly interested in resolving the concerns I described below. Those concerns, I think, still exist if a longer (~>50ft I would guess) hose is used withOUT a hose reel. Based on the concerned and constructive nature of the feedback with Giraffe Customer Service, my wife and I gave the hose another shot, this time with a hose reel. While I did need to spend ~20-30 minutes working the kinks out of our 100ft hose in order to get it to properly spool on the hose reel, once it had been fully spooled, it actually works pretty well. We've unspooled/respooled the hose multiple times over the course of a couple weeks of normal use in our yard and it works considerably better as a package deal with a hose reel. That is something I would suggest be put into the item description as a disclaimer for longer hose lengths. Kudos to Giraffe on their very engaged customer service.(Original Review) It's not that this hose kinks. All hoses kink. The issue with this hose is that the hose itself has no reinforcement in the tubing. It worked phenomenally when I took it out of the box, BEFORE I had attempted to uncoil it to actually use it. As soon as I attempted to uncoil the hose to use it, it kinked in 10-20 different places. Normally, and with a hose that has some structural reinforcement of the tube, that's not a big deal because you just unkink the hose and it stays unkinked, after which you can go about your merry watering business. Unfortunately with this hose, when you undo one kink, it creates a new one a few feet further down the line (because the tube isn't reinforced with anything to hold the shape). For this hose to be usable, you would likely have to lay out all 100 ft of the hose every single time I wanted to use it. Needless to say, that is completely impractical. It might be doable for a shorter length of this hose. The hardware at both ends of the hose to connect the end(s) to a spigot or hose nozzle is the single best design I have ever seen in a hose, because it basically has "handles" that help you get a lot of torque to get a tight seal. It was a real shame that the hose tube itself prevented practical use.

    I have 4 giraffe tools hoses. They are durable and worth the price. The hoses do not tangle and are easy to set up. I have the 100ft, the 75ft, a 10ft and 5ft in various parts of my home. My oldest hose is over a year old and gets daily use; it has maintained its functionality and the black hose with orange stripe is perfect for my needs. The rubber in this hose is very durable.

    Size: 5' (feet) Male to FemaleColor: 5/8 InchVerified Purchase
    I wanted to purchase a small heavy-duty 5-foot garden hose to quickly clean around my small balcony, and this Giraffe hose was on the Amazon's Choice list (highly rated, well-priced products). I have used cheap expandable garden hoses in the past, and I loved them. However, I found them to break too easily and only last about one season. I wanted something that would last longer! When the Giraffe hose arrived, I saw it was made very well, and I could see this product lasting a very long time. The ends of the hose looked like it had great sealing, and it had incredible ergonomic plastic grips to make twisting on/off an outdoor water spigot very efficient. This is definitely a 5/5 product as far as garden hoses go. Unfortunately, I had to return it because it didn't fit my exact requirements. This is not due to the manufacturer's fault, and I will share why.

    My main reason for returning it is because I have purchased these garden hose holders from Gardzen that literally hang from my outdoor water spigots (faucets). I really like these because I could easily wrap my garden hoses around them when not in use, and they keep everything neat and tidy. I especially loved them with my expandable garden hose setups from before. My issue with the Giraffe hose is that the ergonomic plastic grip (although amazing) makes the end of the hose very long and rigid and my setup becomes unusable. I am not able to twist the hose onto my outdoor water spigots because the mount gets in the way. It makes me wish that either the hose grips weren't so long or that the garden hose holder was bigger to give more leeway for the hose connection. This has nothing to do with Giraffe products itself. So, although their hoses didn't satisfy my requirements, they are very well-made and seem like they will last a very long time.

    To compare Giraffe hoses with expandable hoses though, I personally like expandable hoses better (if they lasted longer). Expandable hoses are much lighter, shrink down when not in use, and they never kink. The Giraffe hose is amazing when comparing with other heavy-duty garden hoses in their respective category, but their maneuverability is quite low compared to an expandable garden hose. If Giraffe made an expandable garden hose with brass fittings and shorter ergonomic grips in variable sizes (5 ft, 15 ft, 25 ft, 50 ft, and 100 ft), they would be my favorite hose company of all time! I don't think I can change back to a normal hose after experiencing expandable water hoses (even if they don't last as long). Can somebody please point me in the right direction?

    My landscaper cut the leader hose to my wall mounted hose reel. I ordered this hose to replace that. When the hose arrived, I checked both ends to make sure they had holes. They did. I removed the old hose and connected this one to the spigot outside. Then I tested for blockages by turning on the water.
    This is where my good day ended.
    The fight immediately began between a 5 foot hose and a 6-foot 4-inch 40-something, overweight stay at home dad in cargo shorts and house slides. I was initially holding the hose with both hands when the assault ensued. Blasted in the face by lukewarm water at 80 gallons per minute, my vision was obscured and I was gasping to find my next breath.
    The bombardment increased when I let go of the end closest to my face in a feeble but frenzied attempt to shut off the water. The hose started flailing about in all directions and I was immediately drenched and confused. As I took a step back to regain my balance and attempt to shut off the water, my rubber house slides slipped around my foot, leaving me standing on a 4 inch strap with the bottom of the slides now facing up on top of my foot, making my foot drop and locking it in that position. (Think: ballerina standing on her toes.) I was desperate for air, blinded by the assault of water. I tried to scream for help, but could only manage a weak gurgling sound. Then I slipped, kicking my other slide over the hedges and onto the neighbor’s roof. I landed like a brick, knocking the remaining wind out of my lungs. Still holding the hose and struggling like a man fighting for life would struggle. My wife heard the commotion and ran over to shut off the water, with me, the love of her life, drenched, covered in mud, curled into the fetal position and traumatized by the entire experience.
    When the deluge subsided, I took a breath of life, opened my eyes and saw my wife standing over me with her hands on her hips and a disgusted look on her face. She took the hose from me, let me stand up, then rinsed off the mud with the same hose that is now my mortal enemy.
    “Quit playing around. Get your slide off Steve’s roof. We have to feed the kids.”
    I then sheepishly connected the other end of the hose to my wall mounted reel.

    Works great! Would recommend.

    Fittings and hose quality good.
    First thing I had to do is glue the fitting sleeves into place. For that price I would not buy again.
    Customer service is the best I experienced.
    They offered to replace. I had already fixed the problem and kept the hose.
