Customer Reviews:

hey it's a hose [Posted on 2003-04-24]
What can you say, it hasn't failed yet.... should last a long time.

Good quality for a good price... [Posted on 2003-08-14]
Sung to the theme song from Mister Ed:

"A hose is a hose, it sucks it blows"...

Actually this is a well made (and made in America for a change even as P/C makes more and more of their items overseas - hello [local store]?) rubber hose with decent flexability, nice brass fittings and ferrules BUT it's missing the black strain reliefs as shown in the above Amazon picture, I guess somebody at P/C read their accountant's memo. Should hold up as well as the equivalent grade Goodyear hose. Who knows, perhaps even made by them? Shipping speed from order to delivery was reasonable, less than two weeks. It's a good buy at a good price, but it's a "teaser" with the free shipping as you'll have to find something else to tip the [money amount]scale and Amazon has discontinued many of the small inexpensive things - such as Milton Kwik-Change couplers and plugs. Clever. So buy yourself a good book on constuction techniques along with it, or better yet a good book on jokes so the next time somebody uses a nailgun to sink a 16d nail into their foot on the jobsite you'll have something clever to say to lighten up the situation besides "Did you square that shoe before nailing"?

works but too stiff [Posted on 2005-09-26]
Bottom line is it's working, but I have to make the coil shaped hose straight all the time. The rolled hose catches air guns and other stuffs on the floor. And makes the flooring staple gun down on the floor all the time and leaves a mark on the wood floor. It's even worse on cold temperature. Porter-Cable needs to make it more flexible.

Great hose for the money [Posted on 2007-12-28]
I had bought an air hose at a local (mega) hardware store and it not only looked cheap but felt like rigid plastic. I saw this hose on Amazon.com and since my compressor was Porter Cable as well, figured I'd return the other and purchase this one (actually $5 cheaper even with shipping). I'm not disappointed. It's made of a softer rubber, feels heavy duty, and comes with the Porter Cable name. What more could I ask for.

Great buy! [Posted on 2008-09-30]
This was a great buy but I'll know more about it after we get into the depths of winter and the cold Nebraska temps. This hose appears to be pliable enough at this time to be workable in the cold temps though.
