About this deal
Once it is fully extended, turn the on/off valve to the on position, and water like you would with any other type. Once off, make sure the valve is open, and the hose will contract and shrink automatically. If you were using a nozzle, make sure it is open, or squeeze the trigger to release any remaining water. Attach the female end to a faucet by twisting it in place. Make sure to turn the plastic part, and not the metal part.
It works without a nozzle attached to the end, but your results may improve with the addition of a quality spray nozzle. If desired, attach to the male end of the hose. Kink Proof. With no chance of twisting or tangling, you never have to worry about loss of water flow like you do with other options. Don't stretch out the hose when empty. Turn on the faucet and it will expand automatically. Gradually increase water pressure by twisting the faucet open, and it will extend to three times it's length in a short amount of time.Take care of the outer webbing. It protects the rubber core, so tears or punctures may cause problems.
Lightweight. Much lighter than traditional hoses, and other bulky, non-kinking alternatives. The material makes it effortless for anyone to use it, but it doesn't reduce durability or longevity.
