What best means in this set
Faithfull scores 73. Hozelock Select, TW Wholesale, and Draper 56315 each score 70. Faithfull is 4.1 from 5,557 reviews. Hozelock is 4.5 from 435, TW is 4.4 from 637, and Draper is 4.2 from 1,397. On that formula the top pick is the Faithfull hose, because 5,557 UK reviews outweigh a higher star line on a few hundred. The best value is the TW hose, because it is the cheapest at £32.99 while it ties the other two on the score. Neither label means the hose is kink-proof or safe to drink from.
Faithfull, the largest review file
Faithfull, ASIN B0001IWLMQ, is the green coil at £34.30. The title and the item-length field both say 50 m, the title bore is 12.7 mm, and the listed weight is 4.95 kg. Bullets describe flexible PVC with three-ply polyester fibre, a temperature range of −10°C to +40°C, and a bursting pressure of up to 20 bar. Included components are one 50 m hose. Buyers report kinks that stop the water, then splits when the kink is pulled straight. One reviewer said their supply was about 2 bar and the hose still bulged and split. If the coil label says 30 m, this score does not apply.
TW and Draper, the other side of £34
TW Wholesale, ASIN B0721QY9KH, is £32.99, 4.4 from 637 reviews, yellow, with a three-layer braid and a bullet that says it is manufactured in the UK. Title and item length both say 50 m. There is no bore or pressure field, and the printed 5 inch diameter is not a hose you can believe. It is stiff to rewind, and one review reports the yellow cover splitting along a seam after a season.
Draper 56315, ASIN B0001K9WEE, is £33.78, 4.2 from 1,397 reviews, yellow, listed at 6.6 kg. The title says 12 mm bore and 50 m. Bullets say a minimum 2 mm wall and manufacture according to BS 3746. Draper’s own page confirms the bore and the wall, and does not claim BS 3746. Reviews call it stiff in the cold, and one short review says it burst on first use.
Hozelock Select, only if the label says 50 m
Hozelock Select, ASIN B01AXKVX2A, is £42.10 and 4.5 from 435 reviews, the highest stars and the highest price. The title says 12.5 mm by 50 m and prints code 100-100-577. The item-length field says 500 centimetres and the dimensions line says 5 m. A Hozelock comparison table uses 100-100-577 for Select at 15 m and 100-100-609 for Select at 50 m. The listed weight is 5.35 kg, and the maximum-pressure field says 4 bars.
This Amazon listing does not print the 10-year Select guarantee from Hozelock’s own sheet, and that sheet excludes frost. The wall field of 6.25 mm cannot sit with a 12.5 mm outside diameter. Buy this hose only when the coil label itself says 50 m.
Common questions
Which hose has the largest UK review sample?
Faithfull B0001IWLMQ, at 4.1 from 5,557 amazon.co.uk reviews. That volume is why it is the top pick in this set even though its star line is the lowest of the four. The score is 73 against 70 for the others. A large sample also contains the kink-and-split complaints, so the count is not a promise of a trouble-free wall.
Which is the cheapest in this set?
TW Wholesale at £32.99 on the listing we used. Draper is £33.78 and Faithfull is £34.30, so the three sit within about £1.50. Hozelock is £42.10. TW is the best value here because of that price, not because its stars beat Hozelock. It has no printed bore or pressure.
Why is the 4.5-star Hozelock not the automatic pick?
The title says 50 m, the length field says 500 cm, and code 100-100-577 is a 15 m Select code on Hozelock’s range table. Until the coil label says 50 m, the star line is attached to an unresolved product. It is also the dearest, and the Amazon page does not state the 10-year Select guarantee from Hozelock’s own sheet.
Does Draper’s Amazon page match Draper’s own page?
Both say 12 mm bore, 50 m, and a 2 mm minimum wall for 56315. They do not match on BS 3746. That line is in the Amazon bullets. Draper’s page for this yellow hose does not state it, and the maker’s warranty line there is 12 months. The Amazon outside-diameter field of 12 mm also conflicts with the bore and the wall.
Who should avoid the Faithfull hose?
Avoid it if you need fittings in the box, if kink-and-split reviews are the failure you most want to dodge, or if you will not check that the coil is 50 m rather than the 30 m hose named in some review titles on the same ASIN. The 20 bar burst wording is not a reason to prefer it over a hose with a thicker stated wall.
Who is the TW hose for?
It is for a buyer who wants the lowest price in this band, a yellow hose, and a UK-made bullet, and who accepts a missing bore and a nonsense 5 inch diameter field. It is a poor match if you need the hose to rewind easily by hand or you want a pressure figure before you pay. One seam-split review is a reason to watch the outer skin, not a measured failure rate.
