Bought my new toys - a PC air compressor and a brad nailer. Now I need to
buy an air hose. So many choices! What is a man to do? Pliovic, Ortac,
Neoprene and more. Who knew air hoses could be so varied. Will someone
please help me choose? I know the prices range from modest to wow! I
have a small shop and am thinking 25' will do me just fine, but if there
is any reason to consider 50' please share it. Thanks all ..


Thin, light, flexible is best. Some of the "better" hose is overkill. I
find the yellow coiled stuff to be a PITA as it gets twisted in itself.

25 feet is sufficient for most. Will it reach your car easily if you had to
pump up a flat?
