Is the hose rubber/vinyl or material/mesh? I have one of each and love th storage, however the material/mesh one does get kinked often.

The 2 I bought were made of the mesh material. They have been great and I haven't noticed too much kinking. I try to lay mine out in long loops to prevent some of that. Also, I have found it is very important to always use a pressure regulator. One of mine recently started showing tiny pin holes and I am certain it is due to the one time I did not use a pressure regulator.

These are a material/mesh and not real good. It sprung a leak by the connector real quick..

It's material/mesh. It does kink easily so it works best for long, fairly straight runs.

I can tell you it's mesh on the outside. It does kink a little, but it's worth the hassle because of its storage capability (we live on a sailboat).

I don't know about the inner lining, but the outer material is a mesh/woven fabric. Mine has had a propensity to start small leaks here and there and I would not recommend it for extended hook-up use, but for just filling the tank it works fine and does roll up and store a lot more conveniently than a regular hose.

I can't say it is canvas, but it's a cloth like material and it is sturdy. Took it in for the winter as ice will destroy any hose. I'm pleased with it.

It is plastic but with a chrome finish. I think the hose part might be metal.

Unless they have changed their materials, the hoses are all made of the same stuff. Mine did kink, but not enough to affect the flow of water. hope this info helps. I really like their product.

Hello. The Flexzilla hose has a lifetime warranty. I bought one for front yard and used for three months and just had to buy another one for the backyard. Thus far I have used the hoses for a little over a year and very pleased with this product. There are many hoses out there that are advertised as, "no kinking".... and they always kink! This hose truly does not kink. This is the best hose purchase that I have ever made. Highly recommended.

Hose is separate-take care to buy the one that is MOST flexible-it's a few dollars more but absolutely worth it

My house is housed in a metal hose container so it is not exposed to the direct sun. This hose is better than most bit it still kinks over time.

Hello yackjack. I have owned one of these hoses for approximately 1 year and it is used 3-5 times a week. No issues at all as it never kinks and when I sometimes end up stepping on it there is no effect to the hose. I bought the 50 foot long in red and I have been happy with my purchase. I keep the hose in a roll-up storage box here on Guam so I can't say if the color will fade or how rapidly if left exposed or if leaving it in the sun somehow effects longevity or integrity. I liked the hose so much I sent one to parents.

the hose has a coiled metal exterior so it can bend so interior most be rubber so it can bend too, I have no conerns about it and so far proving to be reliable and of quality craftsmanship in my opinion

The entire housing is metal, The handle is metal with a rubber grip on top of the handle for our comfort. the circulart ring the guides the hose out is a very hard plastic which I thought at one time broke, but it just wasn't flipped the right way. I have had this since march of 2012 and it is still going strong!!! Well worth the investment!!

there made of a nylon cloth type material there tuff I live in TEXAS where the weather is funky either real scorching humid hot or ice cold mostly scorching hot though and ive had these hoses out side for 7 months now and they still work like they should they seem pretty tuff I would get them if I were you I I give the hoses 5 stars so far and they will save your foundation for your home... not sure how they work for a garden or anything like that but they rock for home foundations during drought seasons

It is plastic. the hose is metal. Still working well for me, and looks almost like new! (only because I have hard water, so there are some spots)

Black waterproof material. Not sure what that material would be called? Not quite rubbery. Not thin mesh? Not quite vinyl? But a sturdy rubberyish under bottom? Hope that makes sense since I had to make up a work for you?

Seems like you are asking how flexible the hose is. I have acquired 4 different brands of 4" dust collection has and this is one of the most flexible of them all. I actually prefer polyethylene hose over this PVC one but for the price this one works fine.

The aerator in the pull-down faucet is plastic. The hose seems to be woven stainless. It is flexible, so I suspect there is a rubber-like lining in it. The toggle lever which controls the sprayer is more like rubber than plastic. Our plumber recommended Moen, and we have had had no problems with it and like both its appearance and functionality.

I haven't had a problem with the mesh at all. Small holes for the mesh material. Very nice carrier!
