Handy hose for storing. Mine is on the hook on the fence (away from the tap). In frequent use, a bucket that it falls into is a great idea (my neighbour used his like this)
Pro’s - light weight, doesn’t kink or knot!!! 😃😃😃 (near enough - I fully tangled it on purpose and it only ended up with a slight kink; during normal use it doesn’t seem to kink AT ALL).
Easy storage-quick to put out and away, just quick loop it and set on the hook (tho see the cons)
Connections are good and seal well.
The nozzle gun is great.
It doesn’t seem to catch as easily on brick corners or under tyres (it will but defo not as much as a normal hose)
Con’s - as the water ‘expands’ the hose, if you want to contract it afterwards it needs to fully drain. The 100’ one holds about 6.5litres. I norm drain it into a watering can so as not to waste (or let the kids play with it😀) Its a diff way of working with a hose. Sometimes I turn the tap off before I am finished and use the contracting pressure; on normal reel hoses you are ‘meant’ to drain them but you don’t have to.
The connections although good are permanent due to nature of hose construction. This means you can’t make one a stop for changing accessories- though a male/male connector would sort this. (This is the only reason I put it at 4 stars)
All in - I like this hose and for £20 or less they are very handy. The lack of kinking or knotting is amazing and worth it for that alone.
If you don’t need a long one get the shorter (i.e. If it’s for patio work get the shorter. I intend to purchase a short one for this type of work as I got the long one for going right round house)
UPDATE - my wife used it and somehow managed to knot it, BUT it still didn’t kink and worked with the knot in it!! Amazing 😃
