The hose seems decent but time will tell. It does kink occasionally. Still better than your cheap regular garden hose that you get from home depot. Overall it 7/10.Very light weight and flexible. Easy to handle>It is easy for me to maneuver around my gardens to water, and I tried to kink it on purpose and it unkinked itself. The only thing I'm not fond of are the plastic fittings, but then I guess it would be a lot more expensive. I went with the advice of another reviewer and wound it up while under pressure, so round, then let the water out to deflate. Worked like a charm. I have not had it long enough to know about durability, so we shall see on that.This hose burst while I was using and broke. I always empty it after every use as to not add pressure to the hose. I previously complaint about it but I have not had a response.Outer covering was torn. Could not judge usefulness. Replaced with another brand that has great ratings.Not to be used with hot water, is supposed to be kink and twist free (not so much) when unraveling to attach to hose strap, it was a beyooch. Planned to use when draining sediment once a year from water heater, will see if it melts. No Attachments came with the hose.Our last hose didn't survive the move to our new house, and in any case we now have a very small yard that only requires a 50 ft. hose. This is the first time we've tried one of these flat, expandable hoses, and I'm pleasantly surprised. It rolls up very neatly when not in use, and is light enough to be shelved in the garage. The review template suggests that I rate it on "durability", which is difficult when you've only used it for a week or two, but so far I don't see any points of weakness. Recommended.
