I appreciate being able to buy a hose less than 25', and for a great price also. I am not sure I will buy many more as I would pay more to insure I would get the kind of hose I want - I am eco conscious and do not want hoses with lead etc, and this way of purchasing does not allow me to choose the type of hose remnant I would receive. The one I got however was a good buy and decent quality. I personally am afraid of pot luck and prefer to specify the type of hose I am purchasing. Personal choice.
