There are frost warnings in CT, so put your hoses away for another season. Any new hose, will only burst at this point.... We can reintroduce this topic next spring.... 1-2-3, all hoses in... Break!

My brother in law bought one of those krinkle hoses that take up almost no space and expand when filled with water. It sprung a leak almost immediately. He brought it back to Home Depot and they guy laughed, saying everyone was returning them - they're junk.

I use Craftsman rubber hoses. The rubber stays more flexible than plastic, particularly as it ages.

I considered one last summer but the customer reviews were terrible...most experienced the same issue with leaks.

Screw off (pun intended?). I need the duck* hose NOW to last minute wash the house for the winter.

fyi, the pros advocate rubber.
