why does it spring a leak after 2 uses
2061721
I handled this hose very carefully , but in few weeks it exploded during its usage

Mine does not leak. You have to remember to shut off the water and drain the hose. They can not take the extended pressure. This hose is so much better than the pocket hose.

I have no idea. Knowing that these hoses are probably not as sturdy as regular hoses - we were very careful with it. Hose just got a huge balloon I side and sprung a leak.

Some of the earlier hoses burst. Water pressure too much for this new type of hose. I think it will improve over time. But they are so light.

They are poor quality. I ordered 4. All 4 of them broke and I used them according to their instructions.

It is probably leaking at one of the connections and running down the hose. I have had to retighten where it connects to the sprayer a couple of times. Hope this helps

I have had a the same thing happen, only mine didn't happen until several months after use. I'm not sure if this is the right thing to do, but I just "pop" it down with my hand kind of hard and it starts. As Scott said, it started doing that after I didn't get it sealed and it leaked. So I am guessing that there is just some "gunk" in there causing it to stick. If you wouldn't mind, please post what you find out from customer service. I am still able to use mine, but it continues to stick occasionally.

I used mine for one season and awoke one night to water pouring out on my floor. The spring is broke on one side so I decided just to use the other side and it did the same thing. Guess it's time for a new one but this time I want one that lasts longer than a season.

I haven't had this problem. Have you tried tightening it to see if that helps? I remember at least one other reviewer had the same problem. Once he/she tightened it, it no longer leaked. Hope that helps

on the second use my hose leaked very badly at the connection to the house valve

Leaking how? I've never had a problem with mine. Open the air pressure release valve when not in use and screw it in tight before use again. But it shouldn't leak, it's all one piece.

I am glad to see someone else has this problem! I have had mine replaced 4 times! Did you ever get yours working? I had an old model for 10 years that never leaked, so I know what I'm doing. Frustrating.

it happens but i don't find the need to clean it every time...unless yours is a particularly leaky one, try cleaning it once a week or even every two weeks...longer than that might be funky but i've had no problem with waiting a couple of weeks to remove and clean...try it.fs

Nope. I've owned three, zero leaks. Could it be overfilled? If you can verify the leak (maybe from a line?) I'd send it back. Good luck!

I've had mine for a little over 5 years and it just seemed to vibrate loose. I have to do some more investigation but I think this is what is causing the leak. Again, this is after purchasing in October 2009.

Hello Donald, mine will also occasionally leak as well. When this happens, I have found that the pot was not entirely empty when I made a fresh pot or I filled the water level too high. It will also "spring" a BAD leak if the components (water tank, filter bay and coffee pot itself) are not completely seated in their proper alignments. Check all of these things EACH time you make a pot of coffee and I think you will be as pleased with your coffee maker as I have been. Also, I always make coffee for my guests instead of letting them try to make it themselves! They ALWAYS make it leak! It just takes a little getting used to and being careful each and every time!

Hi there- where exactly is it leaking? If it is leaking at the drainage plug, wrap some Teflon tape on the threads. Depending on how often you use it, you may have to retape once or twice a season. I hope this helps!

I have not had that problem but only used it two or three times - i would call the company and see what they do for you

we've had the same issue on rare occassion. I have no idea why it is leaking and we have also checked it, cleaned it, etc. it seems to be more of an issue when it is overly full.

You bet it's defective, Our 1st one we have had a year, we have had the 2nd one 7 months, neither on leak so if you can I'd exchange it.

I've only used it once, but noticed no leaks at all. It doesn't have a lot of pressure (have to hold it pretty close to the job). Hope this helps.
