TheFitLife Flexible and Expandable Garden Hose - Latex Water Hose with Retractable Fabric, Solid Brass Fittings and Nozzle, Kink Free, Lightweight, Collapsible Expending Hose (25 FT)

The product description is exactly right. Comes with an excellent nozzle with variable shutoff, valuable in its own right. Also has a separate metal turnoff for use without the nozzle. I got the 15 foot size to attach to a hose bib on the outside of a garage wall. It's perfect for miscellaneous cleanup needs/projects without messing with a large hose that is used for sprinkling and flower beds. It shrinks as it says which is a convenience for hanging it up; takes a few moments to expand again for use. They even included two extra hose washers and shipped it with the nozzle securely attached. Careful thought went into the design and manufacturing which is much appreciated.The only downside I can see if for the use of attaching the hose to some kind of sprinkler device, or veg/flower bed, that one wants always at a specific location in the yard. Then the hose shrinking will move everything out of place every time. Also the flow through the hose would be less than a larger hose diameter, which could be a small factor. (The flow through seems great to me)For all around use, it's the best hose I have ever had. It says to keep out of the sun to extend its life (as to long term storing outside). I don't care about life: I keep it handy and if it one day wears / rots I will replace it with its sibling--the cost is low, the life will be years, and it's so handy to have at the ready.Well done to the maker. Very well done.

This is a great hose for the home. The quality beats what is in the stores. These are strong and last.

A must for gardens and homes

I bought two of these hoses each 100 feet long. They are fantastic. Very easy to move without tangling. No kinks. I like to hang it up afterwards on a hook it’s great. Fully adjustable spout.

I've only just purchased this hose, so I have no idea how long it will last. I used 2 rubber washers at our backyard faucet, because 1 wasn't enough, water was dripping from the join. It joins up with other hoses fine. It does deflate slightly when being used, so it doesn't maintain water pressure like a regular rubber hose. The only collapsible hose I ever used that maintained water pressure was the original pocket hose, which we have had for 3 years now. We also had a cheaper collapsible hose, which this one replaced. It was a green hose we purchased at Walmart, don't remember the brand. It was terrible. This new one is much better than that one, which I threw away. So, I'm not completely thrilled with this hose, but it's an improvement over the one it replaced. Time will tell how long it lasts.

While this hose is a good hose, I would venture to say the quality of it is not as good as I once thought. After a year of owning it, the hose broke in the middle causing it to spray everywhere. I kept it stored out of the way so nothing could of hit it. With a standard hose you would be able to fix this by a piece of tape but once this hose breaks on the inside it’s useless. It leaks out and you can’t get any pressure at the nozzle. It was a great hose while it lasted but I woulda liked it to last longer than a year.

After having gone through at least 2 to 3 hoses every summer, I am hoping this is a game changer. I used it for the first time last night. It is light, very easy to Bring it with me around the garden. But I only used it once and will return after some continued used to let you know the results. I must say I do love the spray nozzle, it is sturdy and has many different combinations. I hope this one doesn’t blow up like the other lightweight hoses I have purchased in the past🤞

I've had a number of these expandable hoses, some lasting longer than others. I really like the nozzle that came with this one as it seems sturdier than others I've purchased. We use this hose frequently and it appears to be well made. I didn't rate durability yes as I've not had it long enough to be objective but I'll update this post once I've had it a bit longer.

This hose is perfect for our townhome. It is compact and does definitely expand quite a bit when the water is turned on. The one complaint I do have is that when the water flow is sustained (ie. Spraying something) the hose does shrink a bit. So it would be it's maximum length only when the water is on but not being used. When you begin to do something like watering plants, it will shrink a few feet less than the max length. Can get annoying if you needed that little bit extra. I chose the right lengths that I'm not worried about that.

The hose is lightweight and easy to move about, really enjoy this as well as the fact that it retracts when the water is being turned off. No heavy pulling across the garden! Unfortunately did not last long (sprouted holes overnight and became unusable). Company contacted me and immediately offered refund or replacement hose. Very impressive! I understand that occasionally any product can show an isolated flaw in one item, but if a company is willing to correct and make appropriate amends, I trust them and am happy to endorse their product. Yes, I recommend this item!

I bought two hoses since I needed longer than 25 ft. They work very well and the nozzles fit well and don't leak. One of the hoses started leaking and the spring just broke and stopped working after 2 months. I sent a photo of the problem and got the hose replaced within days. Outstanding service!

Both the nozzle and hose failed within 7 months. This was the second expandable hose that I have purchased on Amazon. I tried a different brand this time and it was crap. The nozzle split wide open. Those has two pin holes which had the displeasure of discovering when running it from a utility sink and almost flooding my laundry room. I am almost of the opinion that there is no such thing as good expandable hose.

Esta manguera realmente no tardó mucho en llegar, pero cuando la conecté a la tubería de agua que por cierto tiene demasiada presión, oh sorpresa, la bendita manguera JAMAS se extendió; aunque en ese momento la revisaron mis trabajadores, vieron que la manguera no se iba a estirar. Sí es de material resistente y el difusor son muy buenos, pero no cumple con la función de estirarse. Ahora solo la podré utilizar para bañar a mis perros porque ni siquiera echa agua con suficiente fuerza.
