Leaking water hose
I can install a new water hose and after a few uses it begins to leak from the brass fittings. I buy a new hose and it is ok for a while then will beging to leak again. Does anyone else have this ...

Cheap hoses come with plastic washers. When they are initially tightened (especially with a pliers by those having leak problems, ahem), a groove is made in the washer. When the hose is attached again, it sometimes orients in a different spot and the groove doesn't seal.
The cure is to buy rubber hose washers. You can experiment with this by flipping the washer over in the hose connector.
