I personally like Fiskars...but then again, that is all they sell at Walmart, as far as soaker hoses. I have bought tons this year - and had initially put some in one of my beds 2-3 years ago - also Fiskars. Still going strong.

I think that's what I got from Lowes but they didn't last very long. I was using them to water the lawns. Sometimes it gets too windy so that's why i use soaker. Forever to finish but very effective. I wonder if animals would even chew on them to get to water? I just found a few that were letting out more water than normal and wondered if they were from animal bites???
