FlexzillaHFZPW426100Q-E 4200 PSI, 100' Pressure Washer Hose, ZillaGreen, 3/8 in. x 100 ft

I used a 1/4" Flexzilla HP Hose previously and it was wonderful. I bought this six weeks ago and it has since kinked in about 15 places, and the kinks cause the hose to remain permanently susceptible to kinking again. Then, today, the hose burst.I would say that I don't recommend the hose, but I'm not aware of anything better available. Just make sure your gun has a swivel to help with kinking.

So first let me say I had to return this item. Somethings going on with Amazon in my area where I order something and I get something else That I did not order. Then they took almost 2 months to refund me My money. But I did buy this hose locally from my local detail supplier shop. This hose is awesome. I’ve had many pressure washer hoses and all have kinked or failed in someway. I’m not a detailer but I take pride in washing my vehicles at home so they get tons of use. I noticed how rugged but flexible this hose is compared to the rest of my hoses. Definitely a must for the at home detailer or professional detailer.

Have always been impressed with the quality of flexzilla garden and air hoses, so I have this pressure hose a try. This hose is flexible but it allows the pressure washer pump to expand the hose slightly, leading to a large buildup of back pressure in the line. When you pull the trigger there's a huge blast of high pressure before it goes to normal. Also the hose doesn't want to stay on a hose real because it expands and contracts with normal operations. This makes washing complicated and is hard on your pressure washer.Ultimately the plastic collar near the end broke and the hose start kinking and feeling like it would burst soon. Stick to grey non markings hoses like GE or Interchange. Cheaper and better.

Flexzilla performed as advertised!

The hose slightly expands under pressure creating a burst. Also, the strain relief is a joke, it's loose and gets in the way of using the quick connect. A better and cheaper option is UBERFLEX.

This is one manufacturer and product line whose value proposition is superb. I always replace the OEM hoses that come with power washers with Flexzilla hoses. We have about forty power washers in our company and each one has an Flexzilla. Also, all my garden hoses are Flexzilla because they perform flawlessly. Designed to be lightweight but sturdy, I have never had one fail on me or even leak. The fittings are high quality and when we do find leaks from the quick couplers it is usually the couplers on the machine and not the Flexzilla hoses.We put a lot of hours on these hoses. I would guess that we put more hours on these hoses in a three month period than an average homeowner would over their lifetime, so I can confidently say it would be impossible for the average homeowner to wear out a Flexzilla hose.If you are running a high-end machine like a STIHL or anything with a Honda engine, you want a hose that will not kink or degrade to the point where it blocks the flow of water. Blockages and kinks can place so much pressure on the engine that you could end up destroying an expensive machine. Just avoid that from happening and spend a little more to get a quality hose.
