About Us

Flow Without Friction. That’s our promise and our process. Garden Hose Guide is a data-driven, system-first resource that helps homeowners, gardeners, DIYers, and mobile users (RV/boat) build matched, leak‑resistant hose setups that work in any space, climate, or task.

Mission Statement

We exist to help every household deliver the right water flow—without kinks, leaks, or guesswork—by pairing transparent testing with simple, step‑by‑step system design.

Brand Story

We started Garden Hose Guide after too many weekends lost to kinks, mismatched connectors, weak sprayers, and reels that bind when you need them most. We couldn’t find one place that measured hoses and accessories as a complete system, so we built our own test benches and blueprints. Today, our recommendations combine lab measurements (GPM at common PSI, bend‑to‑kink radius, coil memory, weight‑per‑foot, UV/cold endurance, coupling durability) with real‑yard use so you get gear that fits together and simply works.

Whether you’re watering edibles on a balcony, covering a large lot, winterizing for freeze/thaw cycles, or kitting out an RV, we turn complexity into clarity: right hose length and diameter, compatible quick‑connects and splitters, ergonomic nozzles and shutoffs, reels that deploy and retract smoothly, potable‑safe options, and irrigation that waters evenly and conserves water. We package it all into task‑based kits and setup blueprints so you can buy once and use for years.

Our Team

• Test Lead, Mechanical Engineer: Designs our flow benches, measures friction loss, and validates pressure/flow at the spigot and at the tool.
• Horticulture & Irrigation Specialist: Ensures plant‑safe choices, even watering, and potable safety for edibles and pets.
• Plumber/Irrigation Tech: Focuses on leak prevention, thread standards, coupling durability, and cross‑compatibility.
• RV & Marine Reviewer: Verifies mobility needs, storage constraints, taste/odor neutrality, and hot‑/cold‑water ratings.
• Editor & Research Lead: Maintains our scoring rubric, fact‑checks specs, and keeps every guide up to date with new data.

Together, we test like engineers and explain like neighbors—so you can get back to the good part: turning on the water and getting the job done.
