In need of a hose for my pressure washer.

Just like the title says, I bought one last year from Amazon that was never kink. It doesn't kink, but it stay coiled up all the freaking time and it drives me crazy. It's almost unusable to this point, so I'm looking for recommendations for a replacement.

Link below is a very popular one. Lots of people recommend it. Can also be bought from amazon but due to the app I couldn’t paste a link.

I second the Flexzilla - Best hose I‘ve ever owned and never kinks. Easy to coil up and seems like a very good quality that will last. I’ve had mine for a couple years with no issue.

If I recall correctly, Uberflex and Flexzilla are the same hose, same patent #'s, it's an excellent hose ... buy whichever is cheaper.


I think I jumped up to a 3/8 hose X 50' (9.5mm x 15.24m). For general purpose car washing, they suggest volume in the 2gpm range and really not more than 1000psi.
The smaller 1/4" hoses will really choke your pump down when you jump up in length.
Use a larger tip size to bring pressure down and volume up, the larger hose will allow the higher volume ... all of this is pump dependent also. The pump can only do so much....

Now I wish I had a thinner but still very flexible whip hose right at the wand, just for easier maneuverability.
