My husband, who doesn't usually fall for new fads bought one at Home Depot for $19. We now have 2 connected together in the front of the house, one in the back yard and one in the barn. The are so light, easy to use, very light and scrunch up into a small pile that is quite convenient. I love them, even if they only last one season they are well worth it. They come with a ball valve attachment that you must leave on for no dripping during use with a nozzle. I wouldn't trade them for any other hose on the market!
