REALLY WORK, EXCELLENT QUALITY
I resisted trying this type of hose for a long time. I saw a couple at friends' houses and was unimpressed by their appearance - quality wise. They looked cheap and I couldn't imagine they would be very durable or stand up to high pressure. I wrote them off as a gimmick product. I have a large property with a lot of lawn, planters and large driveways. I had two 75-foot and one 100-foot, top quality, standard hoses to meet my watering and cleaning needs and had to use all of them. I had them on quality reels to help make using them easier. But having stage-4 cancer 3 years ago and being age 65, I don't have near the strength and stamina I used to. These hoses were becoming too hard for me to manage. So I researched all the expandable hoses on Amazon and settled on these. WOW! These are SO EASY TO USE and PERFORM PERFECTLY! Yes they will snag a little on concrete, but my gravel drives do not bother them at all. I don't know if they expand to a full 75 feet, but they do expand close to that and they have proved very durable WITH NO LEAKS. I fully endorse these, at least this brand, as they really do work well and have very good build quality. I imagine if you drag them over a lot of concrete or pavers frequently, the outer covering will get wear spots in time, but I think, overall, their cost to value and replacement cost still make them a great alternative to standard hoses, especially for those who have trouble with the difficulty of managing heavy, long hoses.

Not Heavy Duty!
I used the hose to water my tomatoes for 2 days and it just split open at the water end! If I hadn't checked on the area I would have had a flood. Definitely not worth the money.

Light weight, extremely flexible, and it will last!
I was reluctant to purchase this Heavy Duty Expandable Garden Hose because those that were owned by my kids three to five years ago split, tore, or had the cloth casing damaged. Further the shutoff valves leaked. But, our 9,000 pound (a slight exaggeration) 50 foot hose started to kink, was impossible to reel in, and was a general pain in the neck, I had to give this a try. Actually, we bought the 50 foot first, and were so pleased that we replaced our larger hose in the front of the house. It's been a month, and it has performed beautifully. And we've put it through the usual uses, i.e., washing the car and dragging the hose around the corner of the garage to do it, watering plants that were 60 feet away, and washing windows. Note that, as it sits in a coil (we bought a pot to hold it in), it looks like it's 15 feet long. Then, turn on the water and, as it fills it looks like a snake unwinding ... and it reached 75 feet as advertised. And then, it comes with a brass valve to turn off the water. We bought six quick-connect brass fittings for nozzles, and that, too, was a snap. After using them for a week, I started using the hose for deep watering plants from the quick disconnect instead of a nozzle. Careful: it builds up pressure, so open the valve slowly and then you'll have the right trickle to water delicate plants. To save on water, when I'm done, I turn off the water, and then empty what's left - about a gallon and a half - into a watering can. The hose weight next to nothing. What a pleasure to get rid of the ol' bulky, twisted, heavy green hoses. This is one of the best products I've bought in 2019. Honest! (Always am.)

poor quality hose
I bought it July 2019, used it to wash my truck about 12 times, in 10 months and it sprung a massive leak/hole about 8 feet from one end. I have fairly low water pressure and there is no reason a hose should burst.this is what you get for a response when the hose fails:Thank you for contacting Amazon regarding the warranty issue. The original product you purchased on June 28, 2019, comes with a 12 month manufacturers warranty from date of initial purchase and, therefore, is not covered under warranty. The manufacturer has fulfilled their commitment to their warranty. Thank you for understanding and for being a valued customer of Amazon.

Wah! My delicate wittle hose broke itself!
My initial impression of this hose was good. Much easier to use than the standard heavy duty rubber hose I used to have. Unfortunately, despite using inordinate care with this hose, after only a few months of light usage, it developed a leak right up near the hose bib. Within two more uses, the metal hose inside completely broke apart. Since it hasn't yet been a year, I tried to reach the seller, who was listed as Triple Hose.Amazon literally couldn't put me in touch with the seller. I 'asked a question' and was referred to a non-existent website for warranty help. After the run-around, I was informed the one year warranty had expired.So, if you want a $40 hose that lasts less than a year during half of which it was stored indoors, but away. Otherwise, suggest you invest in a top quality standard hose that will last 20 years, can be repaired and then last another 10.

Developed a bulge then burst....
OK.I dont usually write negative reviews but here we go.This hose seemed like a great deal when I ordered it but it has a couple negatives.Despite having great water pressure here at my home, the restriction within the hose causes it to shrink when it is used. If you are using it to maximum length it quickly shrinks and becomes too short as it collapses.The little shutoff valve at the end constantly came loose and needed to be re-tightened.The hose also developed a bulge in the past week and this morning that bulge burst, making the hose useless.So much for durability. Of course this happened just short of two weeks after the return date cutoff.I regret to say that I am not happy with this hose and would not recommend it to others.
