Expandable Garden Hose,Expanding Water Hose Heavy Duty Latex Solid ON/OFF Brass Valve Connector Includes FREE Carry Bag for Storage Water Hose- Extra Washers- FULL WARRANTY (75 FT, BLACK)

I use a garden hose every day to water our garden. When not in use it's in a housing that you roll up. This hose essentially disintegrated after only about two months of careful use. The expanding feature took a bit of getting used to. Once I made the mistake of turning the water on before unrolling the hose. That created a Gordian knot that required completely disconnecting the hose from both ends and slowing untangling and unknotting it. You shouldn't have to completely unroll a hose to water a potted plant and then roll it back again. But I could have lived with that. But whatever the element that creates the elasticity (spandex?) is apparently not designed for the long run. Mine literally flew apart after a couple of months. It never sat in the sun and was well cared for. I expect a lot of owners have had a similar experience. I ended up buying a ZeroG hose to replace it. I already had a ZeroG hose in the backyard which I've used there every day for a couple of years now, and it's still going strong. The ZeroG hose isn't as light (nothing is), but still much lighter than a vinyl or rubber hose, rarely kinks and bounces right back when it does without leaving a crease, and just, well - works.

I’ve had this hose for about four months and it has worked fine. Yesterday when I went to use it, I turned on the water and nothing was coming out. I found that the inner hose had popped about 10 feet from the faucet and all of the water was coming out there. The hose is now garbage.
