Yes, I bout the black 1 w/brass fittings, 1 of them lasted about 3 months then tore @ the coupling, the nozzle end & the other 1 is still working. I have been using all suggested precautions.

Sorry to say, my first hose by the second day had two small pin hole leaks and that afternoon the hose totally bust near the collers while I was rinsing of the salt water from my boat. After that I thought maybe it was a fluke and I did get the one with the brass fitting, but it lasted 7 days. Like I said there is a warranty, but it's not really free replacement if you have to pay S&H every time. And besides if it keeps breaking? who in the world wants to keep returing it? It's to bad, because it is a great idea for a hose, just not strong enough with the current materials.

If the brass connector has a nub on the end like mine I cut the hose pushed the hose over the nub and used a small screw clamp to connect the hose to the brass connector works fine . Hope this helps Jim

Shark has them BUT I called them yesterday on the same issue. There are sending me another hose. Maybe they have had problems with the hose. Mine came apart from the connector piece. If your issue is the same go on the website and get the phone number for parts.

Check with Q Industries customer service. I have found them be very responsive. I had to replace the air hose as it came apart after several years use. I wrote a review and in the review complained that the plastic catches on the bag broke when I was putting the compressor up after replacing the hose. They evidently read the review and sent me a new bag free of charge.

Probably because the high pressure hose internal to the machine is ruptured. Disassemble, spice in a new piece & test. A common problem on this machine.

My hose did the same thing the second season of use, pinholes all over. Apparently just poor quality. Don't know about guarantee but I'd guess not more than a year? Try a different brand next time.

That is unfortunately a fake business. Try contacting customer support and you will be surprised. I was ripped off on that hose, expensive garbage. Ruptured after almost 4 uses, They never answered my call or email. It's a personal phone number. I never had any professional response. I don't know how amazon keep hosting those sellers and such poor products.

Mine also broke after a few months of use and what I did I emailed the seller and luckily he told me he will send a one time replacement free of charge; try it. If this doesn't work, try Lowe's, Home Depot, or call your plumber, they should have replacements.

There was a brass connection suggested by Amazon when I placed the order. It worked fine and prevented hose leaking. I can't be anymore specific as the unit is currently at our vacation home.

Wow, mine is the same age and may have the same issue! The hose barb on mine developed a crack along the seam in the plastic. I found a new one online right here at Amazon: "Solo 4074654 Sprayer Hose Barb". Expensive for a little plastic part. I wrote to Solo about the issue, but never received a response. This one will be delivered today in fact...

I like the concept of these types of hoses, but this one blew apart at the end right after I received it. So thus I didn't care for this product. I like the fact that it doesn't kink, but if you can't use it what difference does it make if it doesn't kink?

I don't know why it failed. Mine did the exact same thing. Unfortunately, you may have to buy the repair kit. It's not too difficult to fix. I will say this, when you get ready to cut the original hose, allow yourself about an ADDITIONAL three (3) inches or more from the base than what is recommended in the instructions. This will allow you to grab more of the original hose and it makes it easier to push original hose, the new splicer tube and the new hose with wand together.

I have not seen this happen since installing but I have noticed the hose has started to blimp up near the connection to the Claber. It is like the pressure of the water has been stretching the hose near the fitting but I have no leaks still. Just wondering if it might eventually blow out. When I installed I made sure the hose had a nice clean cut end and that it was pressed on as tight as it would go to the Claber fitting. Then I made sure I tightened the Claber fitting as snug as it would go and it has been water tight since. You might not have torqued it down tight enough is what I'm thinking.
