Bruce,
Have been seeing these advertised for several weeks on the TV. Wait a
bit and the price will drop and you will be able to get it at Walmart.

The original "Deal or Dud" site wouldn't open for me so
I got this from Google:
(http://myfox8.com/2012/08/22/deal-or-dud-x-hose/)
I obviously have no idea as to its life span, but the TV
test at a commercial pool says it does as advertised.
I think I'll take JR's advise and wait for it to show up
at Wal-Mart.
At that time, we'll be able to see specs and learn if it
is suitable for drinking water usage! If so, it would be
a good item for GMCMH use with our very limited storage.

But wait. Be one of the first ten to order today and receive not one but
two hoses. Mention you saw it here and we'll throw in a free sprinkler.
All you do is pay the shipping.
Warning: The material used to manufacture the inner hose causes cancer,
epilepsy, diarrhea, and loss of appetite. Use at your own risk.
--- Seriously, it looks interesting. I'd be concerned whether the inner
hose is suitable for drinking. I also wonder how you hook it up to the
hydrant and then get it to the coach. Can it be stretched without damage
or must it grow under pressure.
There are more questions than answers at this time. That DAP has their
name connected to it may indicate something. I'm not sure what. That its
available at Dallas nurseries tells me something, too.
I did a Google search and came up with a review of Dog Appeasing Pheromone
Spray.
There's sort of a review at this address:
http://www.virtualexhibit.net/expandable-garden-xhose-review/
The review mentions the ends are made of cheap plastic that soon wear out.
With use it seems to loose elasticity, which sounds very similar to a
problem with aging.

Bruce,
I bought the 50 foot version of this and am happy with it, HOWEVER, this is the first tour we've had it.

The review about it kinking is correct, you can lay it out to prevent that.
Regards,
Rob M.
