Using your garden hose should be easy. It can be with the TRIPLE HOSE. Our hose is durable yet lightweight. This superb design resists leaks, kinks, tangles, and splitting. We offer 3/4" solid brass connections. TRIPLE HOSE has a triple latex core covered by a 3750D strong nylon fabric. It is beautiful yet rugged. The brass water valve can be turned on or off at your convenience to allow you to attach a sprinkler. TRIPLE HOSE is engineered to expand to three times its original length. Attach the hose to your water source and watch it expand from 17' to 50'. Discharge the water, and it shrinks back to 17'. EASY CARE. Drain water from the hose and store it in a shaded area. Comes with a complimentary storage bag.
