First of all, I love the light weight of this hose. I have chronic pain, and used to dread watering my garden and hosing off the patio. There's nothing worse than a large heavy hose filled with water that gets stuck or kinked when you're already hurting! It's light weight makes it easy to move to other locations, and it's non-toxic, so I can sneak a drink for me and my dragons out of it, too!
