In addition, we noted how comfortably the sprayers fit in our hands and how easy the hose was to pull around the yard. To ensure that the fittings were strong, we banged them on the concrete, reconnected the hoses, and checked for leaks, indicating that the fitting had changed shape. After varying the water pressure with each hose, we found they all work best with a water pressure of at least 40 pounds per square inch (psi).Īll hoses were pressurized with water and then left out in the elements for 24 hours, and we backed over each one of them with a car. If they came with a sprayer, we tested each of the spray functions, noting whether the spray was uniform or the connections leaked. We put these hoses through the wringer and didn’t play favorites.
