Gentle, deep watering Aug 08, 2009
By JB
I've used Andrews 2-tube sprinkler hoses on my lawn for fifteen years. They provide the perfect kind of gentle, deep watering that I prefer. They help me have a lush green lawn, even though its just ordinary bermuda grass, and even though I only water once every two weeks! I let the hose sprinkle gently for about two hours on each area of my lawn, then shift it to another--it does take a few minutes setting up and adjusting the water pressure to give just the coverage I want, but since I don't have an inground sprinkler system, this works best for me. I store the hose on a cord reel (the kind made for 100 feet of heavy-duty extension cords), so it's a simple matter of reeling it out across the area I want to water, then reeling it up again when I'm done--keeps it neat and free of kinks ... plus, it keeps it out of the "hands" of the raccoons, who used to chew it to pieces before I came up with the idea of using the cord reel. Nowadays, my lawn looks better than my neighbor's with their inground sprinklers and timer who water every day for 15 minutes--no work for them, but their lawn is shallow-rooted, sparse, and pale compared to mine.

 easy-to-use sprinkler hose Jun 18, 2007
By Angela
This sprinkler hose is extremely easy to use and functions exactly as described. The only possible problem which I see is that the holes go all the way to the faucet connection. This may be problematic since water can seep into your home's foundation. I purchased a 10 ft. extender hose to solve the problem.

 P.O.S. Jul 24, 2007
By Portland Gardener
I suppose this sprinkler hose would be OK if it is always left in one place, but I had several duties in mind for it.
While the amount of spray was just perfect for the parking strips that I used it for the most, I came to dread setting it up because it is so cheap and flimsy it would very easily get into nightmarish twists. I would end up wasting a great deal of time untwisting it. I found that it is easiest way to get it untwisted was to turn the water on and just get soaking wet, but save time. Upon about the 10th use a rose thorn slashed it and it was kaput.

 It's OK, not great Feb 25, 2008
By Robert Kozlowski

It's very tough to find a decent soaker hose, at any cost. Swan is downright terrible and the company doesn't respond. This hose worked well for a couple of years before splitting on the sides. It's not used everyday. Maybe only 10 times a month during the summer and only at night for about an hour each time. The top side of the hose is very difficult to find and can only be set out during the day. The hose is very light and tends to keep twisting. Can take an hour to set up correctly. Still,it's the best I've found.

 A little too long Sep 11, 2011
By ladybug10

I have this model in the 30 foot and 50 foot lengths as well. I've noticed that by the time the water gets to the hundredth foot on this one, it lacks pressure and the hose easily collapses at the least kink or compression. The shorter versions maintain their inflation and weeping much better. If I had it to do over again, I would just buy two 50 foot hoses instead of this one 100 footer. Set up of such a long hose is also more of a chore than for the shorter ones. All have the consistency of a piece of cooked linguine pasta and tend to twist on themselves once the water pressure inflates the tubes, requiring me to go over the entire length again to straighten these out. 100 feet is a lot of length.
