This may sound like heresy, but let me suggest the following:

hose on the shelf.

Yes, 50 ft is not a typo.

BTW, If you spend $15.00, you spent too much.

That's right, Lew, and once you have bought one, you'll NEVER again
buy another cheapass hose. They don't lay down, won't roll up, and are
stiffer than a puritan woman on her wedding night. DAMHIKT.

The blue plastic hoses from HF are just downright tormentatious. I'm
keeping these two 50-footers for OUTSIDE use.=20

However, I have not used that hose. Is it really that bad?
