Customer Reviews for Orbit 1/2 in. x 100 ft. Distribution Tubing

I have purchased this product in the pass. Was made of a better rigid material., So naturally ordered again. This is now a cheap cost cutting product. Material arrived rolled up full, and of kinks. Thought perhaps packers were careless, but realized upon working with it, expect kinks and possible leaks just by handling it. Poor product, expected better.

it was disappointing that I ordered ½ inch hose that was actually smaller than ½ inch so was very difficult to use.

Stiff, and kinks too easily. I’ve gone back to using a different, slightly more expensive brand.

Good distribution line. A light weight and soft material though.

Product worked great.

I purchased the Orbit hose because that is what the prior homeowner had used. I am not sure that this tubing is any better than the other brands that are on the market.

We have used other brands in our gardens and this product has better flexibility and easier connections. The other brand developed pin holes in the second year. So far so good with Orbit. We are happy with the performance.

I did a test area with orbit and I really liked their system. I was buying irrigation equipment for my whole yard and HD was out of the Orbit 500ft tubing so I went with another brand. That was a mistake. I could not punch out holes for fittings. I returned that and got the orbit. It works great. It is easy to punch with the orbit punch tool. It holds the barb fittings snug and fits into the compression fitting without leaking.

I bought 2 rolls. Each had only 85', not 100 as advertized.
