I was tired of purchasing light weight expandable hoses, just to see them start leaking everywhere. Love that they’re very light, but buying one every few months gets quite expensive. TheFitLife Flexible Metal Garden Hose looked like the alternative I’ve been searching for. The packaging itself demonstrated quality. The hose itself is light and looks very strong. Even the sprayer nozzle had the look of quality made. The box even included extra washers. So far it has performed well with no leaks. Only time will tell if it survives the Florida sun.
