the expandable hose works great.it starts out real small then you turn the water on and it grows. all the way up to 75". I was amazed on how long it went. I was able to water all my flowers without any problems. . I was amazed at how little space this takes up when it is not expanded and full of water. It can be easily stored outside - no need for one of those ugly hose racks. When you done just turn the hose off and it goes right back to being small.It is very light weight which makes taking it from the front yard to the backyard very easy. Unlike the old heavy hoses the Expandable hose doesn't get caught on everything and kink up everywhere.
