I'm a homeowner and use this for jobs around the house (I've painted, sand-blasted, run air tools, blow guns, and filled tires).  I've had this hose (3/8" x 50' Goodyear yellow safety rubber hose) and a same-size Goodyear Pliovic all the time.  I typically leave this hose hooked up and pressurized all the time and I leave the Pliovic hung up on the side of the garage, unpressurized, and hook it up only when I need an additional 50' run.
