Gilmour is so confident about the quality of their Flexogen hose, they offer a lifetime replacement policy.

When you consider the price I paid for this hose (just over $25 with free shipping), this is easily a five star product. I've probably bought a half dozen junk hoses that lasted a year or two. Not only were they a waste of money, but they were incredibly difficult to use (constantly kinking, leaking from fittings, etc.), compared to this one. This is a no-brainer purchase for any home owner... you might pay a small amount more, but the returns are enormous.
Very easy to maneuver. I have a long winding path flanked with ground-cover, shrubs, perennials and trees. This hose lays in place, not "jumping around" as some hoses do, twisting on themselves.
I do not have to wrestle with this hose when changing direction or going around a bend.
The color is ideal, as it just blends into the surroundings. The material it is made from feels very nice in my hands and does not discolor them.
Hooks up to the hose bib with no leaking.

I usually have bad luck with hoses, but this one is great for not tangling, easy to roll up. The "no agro" is worth it in itself.
Can you believe people are still buying the "self expanding and contracting" hoses? They should be called Self Exploding Hoses. Ha!
