Buy decent hose for start, they last ages, ours well over 12-18 month and used daily with heat. Once it's broke in one place it generally means the hose is past its best so will likely go elsewhere, just replace. For the amount they are used its pennies, and repairing is also dangerous, especially if a claim is made and it's found to be poorly repaired.
It's easy saying buy decent hose for a start, though if you've had hoses from the same supplier you expect them to be of the same quality.
