Buying more than you need can actually hurt performance by reducing water pressure.
Pro Tip : If you only occasionally need a long reach, buy two 50-foot hoses and connect them as needed rather than lugging a single 100-foot hose daily. :
: A blend of rubber and plastic (like the popular Flexzilla ) that is much lighter than pure rubber while remaining kink-resistant and flexible.
: The standard for residential use. It provides the best balance of pressure and weight.
The material dictates how long your hose lasts and how much effort it takes to move.
