Gardena Wall Mounted Hose Reel

I see a lot of posts online about anti-kink hoses and people say they still kink and this is in fact true, we bought a 30m Gardena Flex host with 8/10 kink resistance, but out of the box I will say a brand new hose takes a while to iron the kinks outs (pun intended). First the hose guide tells you to fill with water and sit it in the sun for a few days but we had one of these already left from the old owner, why was it is much more easy to hang and move? Well I think it takes time to become kink resistant and a longer hose more chance it will.
