Overall, this is a great expandable hose and obviously of much much better quality than the Hozelock product. uk/browse/garden-and-diy/hoses-and-garden-watering/hoses-and-sets/c:29514/brands:hozelock/" on this server.

As Superhoze is filled with water and expands, the two independent layers glide smoothly over each other, ensuring a continuous water flow. I don’t recommend the Hozelock or XHose products at all, but TheFitLife’s expandable hose appeared far better, and I was impressed with the brass quick-release fittings, the extra padding on the sleeve and the spray gun. The spray nozzle is the basic version, and unlike some competing products, it doesn’t come with a spray gun or an inline tap which I feel every expandable hose should have. As Superhoze is filled with water and expands, the two independent layers glide smoothly over each other, ensuring a continuous water-flow. Integrated child lock – this convenient lock prevents the hose from being pulled out by children, ensuring the hose is only pulled out when needed.It did have an inline tap to adjust the flow rate and didn’t leak, but I felt it was too similar to the Hozelock Superhoze.

Like a lot of people, I have low water pressure at my property and it took over a minute for the expandable pipe to reach its full length. The Superhoze is made up of a highly elastic inner core and a soft, yet robust outer, meaning that there are no hard materials to fold or bend which can create kinks or tangles in some regular garden hoses.

Some products may be delivered straight to your door from one of our suppliers and these products will be labelled within the product description.

The braking mechanism ensures a controlled rewind whilst the layering system neatly coils the hose with no kinks or tangles. Expands up to x3 – Superhoze expands up to x3 its original length and then shrinks back down to its original size after use. This was the first product I tested that came with brass fittings, and they were quick-release, too, which was a nice touch. Hose Stop – prevents the hose fully retracting into the unit, meaning the hose is easily available every time.

Despite having low water pressure, the Superhoze then proceeded to burst and leak everywhere with a bulge evident in the middle of the pipe.
