I ordered this because I needed a hose to drain off the water from my de-humidifier and this was the right length.  The quality is way to nice to be used as a drain hose but that's what I needed it for. It's heavy duty, thick hose.  It was a little bit of an issue to get it to lay flat after it had been coiled up for so long but I just used bricks to get it to lay flat and drain and it worked perfectly.  Don't hesitate to pick a few of these for odd jobs that you need short lengths of hose for.
