HOZELOCK - Porous Hose 25 m : Microporous Hose for Economical Watering, Without Wasting Water. Ideal for Flowerbeds, Vegetable Gardens and Greenhouses: Ready to Use [6764P0000]

Great product that does what it's advertised to do. Produces an even drip feed the complete length of hose. Don't be tempted to buy cheap copy hose it doesn't work! floods water out the first few meters and then nothing. Ask me how know!

Only started to use but so far seems to do the job and quite satisfiedTwo things to note1 I needed to buy an end plug as despite the product information this was not included2 Pay attention to the instructions as although the hose is sturdy for handling, the tap should not be turned full on - a quarter of a turn only - or the hose could be damaged

Works just as it should

…and really that’s all you need to know.However, to echo another review, I originally had a Hoselock soaker hose but made the noob mistake of leaving it out all winter uncovered. I also live in a very hard water area. The result was no flow and no soak. So I bought something that looked the same but was a fair bit cheaper. It just dumped all the water in the first few metres. I initially thought it was because there’s fair bit of rise and fall around the beds and pots but tested and there was 3bar pressure at the tap (in line with the supposed spec of the hose). I have now installed a replacement Hoselock and water is now flowing and soaking all 30m of vegetable beds and, using the supplied flow valve, have reduced the flow. Lesson? Should have spent the money first time!!

This has proved really useful this summer and it's so much simpler than those irrigation systems with the tubes and valves and stuff. There's so much of it that I was able to cut it into two lengths for two different flower beds (you have to buy more connectors but they're available in most garden centres or DIY shops). Just make sure you get it the right way around as there is a one way stop valve on one end (the red end). If you connect it the wrong way the water will pour out. You can still connect another connector on the stop end if you want to run the water further away so theoretically you can have a chain of them with normal hose in between.Take care not to run it on high pressure. I didn't read the instructions until I'd been using it for an hour and only then learned that you should only run it at about a half turn of the tap otherwise it starts to burst. Even so it just means a few points will spray tiny (I mean tiny microscopic) fountains of water that will reach about 30cm from the hose. This isn't so bad so long as it doesn't happen too much.Tip: It's quite difficult to get it to stay in place and it has a fairly wide natural bend radius (perhaps 50cm) so buy a pack of cheap tent pegs and you can pin it in place.

I have recently planted 7 new trees (3 different species) and the current 5 week long period without rain has made keeping them happy and well watered an onerous task.I had read about soaker pipes online and decided to give this one a go.Overall I am happy with my purchase, my watering time has been slashed by carefully laying out the hose pipe around the base of each of my new trees, turning on the tap a little and letting it get on with the job.My gripes are relatively minor but worth highlighting:- the pipe itself is quite tough, not easy to manipulate to tightly surround the trunk (and therefore root area) or newly planted younger trees. I think tent pegs or similar will solve this so I will in invest in some.- the whole pipe is a soaker so even the areas you don't wan't watered but happen to be in the route betwee the trees get a good slacking.

I bought this soaker hose for an irrigation setup I was installing in some new raised beds I'd built. The beds has hedging in them so I really needed a reliable watering system to stop me killing the hedges before they had a chance to establish themselves.The hose is excellent quality, if a little stinky (not that that matters outdoors) with a relatively even pattern of leakage. It coils well and when combined with ground pegs such as the GARDENIX ones, stays exactly where you need it, even at high pressure. I've buried mine under a thick layer of bark mulch to give it some protection from the elements and to limit water loss by evaporation.Can't fault it so far - lets see how it overwinters next.GARDENIX pegs - https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B07GVGK7Y1/?th=1

I have 300 pots in my garden which takes over 2 hours to water with hose. I bought 2 of these 2 years ago, 1 for front and 1 for back garden, put a splitter on tap so can connect both at same time. 2 hoses cover about half my pots. I usually leave them on quite low pressure overnight and they have made such a difference I am about to order another 2 so every pot should be covered this year. They are bit of a nightmare to unroll and lay out but I use cable ties and attach them to the pots. No more long hours spent watering for me, switch tap on before i go to bed at night, get up in morning and garden will be watered, excellent.

pratico e funzionale, una volta posato è bastato collegarlo al rubinetto (o al tubo da irrigazione esistente) e regolare l'estremità dove si può scegliere se far uscire acqua o meno. A quel punto aprendo il rubinetto a mezza pressione ha iniziato ad irrigare semplicemente tramite i pori. perfetto

We bought several, easy to connect and ran them through our huge front flower bed. It made the best summer season ever and our plants bloomed fabulously. Every visitor exclaimed at the bed and it was "no muss, no fuss" for us. Highly recommended.

Descontenta con la compra. Adquirí este kit de riego de manguera porosa de 30 metros, para regar una parte de nuestra finca.A pesar de tener una presión de agua bastante buena, la manguera no riega de forma homogénea. Desprende mucha agua los primeros metros, pero al final del riego no llega casi agua, por lo que no cumple su función.Supongo que para regar 5-10 metros no haya problema, pero si pretendes utilizar toda su longitud de 30 metros, no cumple su función.

Dopo una giornata al sole non funziona piu...é come se si chiudessero tutti i buchi e non sgocciola piu diventando inutilizzabile

Looks good quality and works.Only just recently installed.Had a to buy an extra end cap as the one fitted didn't do the job.
