I bought a 25' Pocket Hose just to try it out. It was amazing. I then ordered two more segments so we could have one hose for the front of the yard and one for the back. Our lawn will be reseeded and aerated in October. Dragging the old hose and sprinkler around the yard for weeks was NOT a happy thought. Now, we have the light weight Pocket Hose! I am 78 years old and my husband is 81. This really is a great help! And wrapping it up is so easy too. It certainly takes up a much smaller space.
The one item of the hose that is interesting. The color LOOKS like a snake. And when the water goes through the hose, as the hose extends, it LOOKS like a snake in the lawn. (Albeit, a big snake.) When you shut off the water it once again LOOKS and MOVES like a snake. Both my husband and I made that comment. If the color was different it may not appear that way but we rather like that it just looks rather 'natural' than a green or brown hose. I would highly recommend this hose. I'm HOPING it lasts for several seasons.
