The Sears Craftsman I have has to be 20 yrs old. The only thing that was able to handle my pressure but the damn thing is HEAVY. Wife can't roll it back into the hose cabinet . This new one is a dream to use. Tried one of those "As seen on TV" Pocket hoses....it lasted less than 5 minutes...blew it right out..

I had the same experience with a hose from the Walgreens infomercial aisle.

Cooling tower biocide automatic feed stuck on, foamed the entire boiler room, soaked a pull station on the fire system, evacuated the building and the fire dept. showed up
