How is Hetty on edges? And is the hose really strong? Been having problems with cheap hoses! Thanks!

The suction power is very strong. Even a large anmarillis leave hanging from the plant pot was vacuumed from side instantly. No problem on the hose. In addition to that, the large vacuum bag keeps dust very well. I changed a bag only once so far. When I opened the Hetty's black head, I found no dust at all inside of the plastic frame.

I have owned Hetty for two years. Have 40,000 sq.' building and numerous employees using. It is the first vac they haven't been able to kill.

HI Linda, The shower hose is a heavy duty commercial like plastic hosing. It's thick and has not kinked up once for us since we have been using it. It's nice that its not metal as it prevents rusting. = )Irish Carter

This hose is the best! I have it on a hose reel, and it winds up without any kinking whatsoever. I strongly endorse this hose, like it so much, I bought a couple more for around the house and garden!

That hose is a piece of crap. I wouldn't take one of those again if someone give it to me. Save your money or spend it on a traditional hose. I went back to a traditional hose and will never look at one of these again. Good luck to you if you spend the money on one. If you dont believe me just look up all of the other comments about this hose you will see what im saying is right.

Felicia mine was secure. My issue is the hose, there is a small section where the rubber is more flexible, that's where it ripped. Right under a groove.

I had this hose in a straight line. I think it would have kinked if I tried to turn circles with it. I also have a round soaker hose which I am able to circle around plants. I like it a bit better.

This hose is very well made. Heavy duty and yes, I see no problem with your project. I was disappointed and it may be a defect, the quick disconnect works great but it does not turn off the gas when you disconnect. Full force. I can see this not being a good idea if there's a lot of traffic with kids around the disconnect to be fumbling with. For the money I paid for mine, I am very pleased. I got an open, like new and it was, it was brand new but I got it for a very cheap used item price. Sweet!

I'm not exactly an expert on types of plastics but I have used this Universal Discharge Kit and have had no trouble with it at all. It seems quite durable...I pumped out a well house twice with the hose and adapters and held it down with my foot with no ill effects on the hose. The hose is quite flexable too.

Mine is still working but not 100%. It can get stuck but I bet that happens to all of them. To me the hoses are worth the price I paid for it and the fact that it does 75% of the pool relatively well makes it a good investment any ways. I am a firm believer that you get what you pay for.

i use the handheld way as i cannot stand and the hose is a great metal hose that hangs nicely. my daughter uses the device as a regular shower and has not complained what so ever about it. she was having to use my rubber hand held until i got this one. i love it and hope this helps you in your decision.

No this is a flexible hose that doesn't kink. It doesn't kink or expand. I had two of those expanding hoses and both failed within a few months--They deteriorate if left in direct sunlight and the plastic fittings are weak. The NeverKink hose is far superior.

YES IT IS! Just make sure you use wax paper to melt the edges. Works like a charm! The last piece for the hose can be sealed with some duct tape. There are several articles and videos online to help you out if you need it. HAVE FUN!

The hose is quite stiff, but I've never had a problem with it kinking, even in cold weather. In fact, my garden hose connected to the other end kinks, instead. I wouldn't use it in freezing temps, though.

I found the hose to be about as stiff as most other pressure washer hoses. It is stiff but after detaching the handle and the hose from the pressure washer it can be neatly wound up in a 20 inch circle.

This is more pliable than most other hoses I have owned...it really depends upon the temperature in the air when you are trying to roll up the hose. When it's cold <40 degrees it can be a little squirrelly.

The hose is not plastic. The material is very resistant. I have used it for a month and it is a great faucet. No real cleaning needed. Just need to wipe down chrome finish after use of faucet to remove water spots.
