The Hose That Grows...

This is SFW.
.
After seeing the green squiggly Pocket Hose on TV, I decided to get one and try it out, and my findings....not bad.
Good solid connections, moves around easily and lightweight, when done after water is removed, just wrapped it around my hand then threw it in the bucket.
Easy peasy, as Sheldon would say.
Going to buy a couple more.

I used to think that I had learned patience as I got older. Then I realized that I just didn't give a shit

will it still extend if it's used with only its open end or do you have to have a spray gun connected to it so it'll extend under pressure?

Well we'll see when you become a septuagenarian (for you people in Rio Linda, that's in your 70's).

Used it yesterday for the first time, I'll report later how it has held up, hopefully longer than yours.

(This hose shit sounds so homo silly).
