Hozelock recommends letting water run through the hose before using it to remove any air - you only need to do this for a few seconds before closing the nozzle to let the water expand the hose, ready for use. Superhoze is made up from a highly elastic inner core and a soft, yet robust outer, meaning that there are no hard materials to fold or bend which can create kinks or tangles in some traditional garden hoses.

The dynamic design of Superhoze enables it to expand up to three times its original length for easy reach and then shrink back in size after use for convenient storage. The nozzle on the Superhoze can be adjusted to produce anything from a fine mist spray to a powerful jet of water, so all tasks are covered, whether you’re watering plants in pots or cleaning the car. He previously worked as a project manager and has experience in managing teams of tradespeople and landscape gardeners on both small and medium sized projects. I prefer brass metal fittings and some competitors produce solid brass connectors on their expandable hoses but there’s no metal to be found on the Superhoze.The spray nozzle is the basic version, and unlike some competing products, it doesn’t come with a spray gun or an inline tap which I feel every expandable hose should have.

Outlets and voltage differ internationally and this product may require an adapter or converter for use in your destination. The only issue I can see is the lack of an inline tap, although I could use the slider on the spray gun to adjust the flow of water; still, I would prefer an inline tap.

In other words, if I wanted to create a jet of water from the nozzle, it would come out so fast that the pipe shrank from 15m to 5m in less than 30 seconds. Despite having low water pressure, the Superhoze then proceeded to burst and leak everywhere with a bulge evident in the middle of the pipe. Maybe this wouldn’t be an issue for those with high or normal water pressure but my only option was to use the spray nozzle at the “wide spray” setting, otherwise, the whole pipe would shrink fast. Superhoze is made up from a highly elastic inner core and a soft, yet robust outer, meaning that there are no hard materials to fold or bend which can create kinks or tangles in some regular garden hoses. I had issues controlling the flow rate out of the expanded pipe with the cheap nozzle/sprayer (more about that later).
