@medz Presumably, they don’t need a safeword, but I’ve heard some very “unsafe” words used to describe them at times. Mostly by people who left this kind of hose pressurized and laying on the ground in the sun.
Pocket hose for pocket gardening. What do you grow in your pocket?
Semi-seriously (I know, nobody takes me seriously), twenty-five bucks for a pair of fancy hose nozzles is neither a fantastic bargain nor an outright ripoff. As for the “hoses”, it’s probably wise to regard any item in the “pocket hose” category as the paper-straw equivalent of a real hose. Except without the environmental consciousness of not using disposable plastic.
About those “disposable” plastic straws; if you don’t dispose of them, they can last more than 25 years. I know this because I’ve been using some of them for that long. Unlike glass ones, there’s no shattering hazard. Unlike metal or “durable hard plastic” ones, there’s no tooth-breakage hazard. The point here is that if you really need a hose and you have room to store it outside, preferably on a bracket on a wall, the regular type of hose is going to outlast these by a huge margin. Reducing waste is the first step in reducing environmental harm. Think, and decide for yourself; which way works for me?

It seems that this deal can be all wet!

I like how everyone actually got along and agreed in the writeup. Oh, and Lone Wolf would absolutely be me if I were a superhero.
