I like it better than a regular hose
The hose is pretty much as expected (after seeing the initial commercial a year ago).  It is kinda cool how it expands and then shrinks when using water.  It does get pretty dirty and I haven't really tried to figure out how to clean the outside other than spraying water on itself, but it doesn't help much when the ground is also dirty.  Overall, I got what I paid for and it's certainly a lot easier to roll up than your average plastic hose.
