Customer Reviews

Useful and cheap
Not sure why they are called 'remnants', these are 15' hoses with fittings on each end. I received two different types of hose material, apparently these are the ends of long rolls the factory cannot use in longer lengths.

These hoses are actually fairly inexpensive. The hose material is mid-range quality, and the hose fittings (one male, one female) are decent but not higher quality.

I bought several and am using them for areas that already have a long hose but with plants near the faucet, so the long hose can stay on the outer parts and this shorter hose can water the nearby plants. However, 15' doesn't go very far, so practical use is limited.

I am using two to extend existing 100' hoses that are just a few feet short. Beats adding another 25' hose to the 100'er.

All in all, useful at a bargain price. I have more on order.


UPDATE Aug 27, 2009 -
I have purchased a dozen or so of these and have been using them all summer during 100+F degree hot sun. I haven't had a single problem with any of them. The one hose that did develop a mesquite thorn leak was a high quality rubber hose. Sometimes cheaper semi-hard vinyl like these win in the end.

Still 5 star happy !

Bought 3 and back for more!
I purchased three of these via Amazon (free delivery) for $8 each and back for more. Great value! I use them in combination with a 4 way connector set and adjustable sprinklers to water each of my raised garden beds with just one quick turn of the hose. Not only are they a much better quality than the sets supposedly created to do the same thing but the price is competitive too. Just the right size to daisy chain sprinklers and reduces the time required to tend the garden...perfect for raised garden beds where regular sprinkler system might be over-kill.

UPDATE - I noticed many people complaining over quality...for the record I received the Black hose remnants as pictured. From the sound of it, there are various colors and quality issues. The black ones are very good quality with brass fittings.

What I needed
I was tired of buying short hose remnants at Home Depot that were basically cr*p and needed to be replaced within a year. I was very happy with the quality of this one, and look forward to not having to buy another next year.
