I love that it is 5/8" so you get a nice full flow of water and great pressure at the nozzle.  I've had mine for two years out in the central Texas sun and storms with temps from 20 - 110 degrees and they have not failed.  When frozen they harden but don't crack and when in the sun they soften, but don't crack.  If you take the time to unroll them, they lay flat and don't want to kink, which is really nice.  We use ours on and off several times a day at the barn.  I've replaced hoses annually until I tried this brand.  It is sure nice to have something stand up to the daily wear and tear at the barn.  It's outlasted all the other brands I've had, and now it is saving me money because I haven't had to replace it.
