A sucker is born every minute. I admit it. I might be one. I have been up in
the wee hours of the morning watching television commercials. And I found one
that caught my fancy. It's about a 50 ft. hose that can fit in the palm of your
hand and unfurls when the water shoots through it like a fire hose does. Then it
shrinks back down when you turn it off. The old fashioned rubber hoses have given my
husband and I a fit throughout the years. Lugging those things across the grass
are a real pain. They are heavy, they crimp,
kink, get dried out, tangled up frustrating us trying to do yard work.
This new fangled POCKET HOSE as it's called looked simpler. I believed the hype
the TV pitchman was spewing. So I bit
the forbidden late night fruit and bought one. But instead of calling up and
getting the special tv offer... we bought it
at Bed, Bath

No, but I have seen on on tv - let me know if it works. sandie
I've seen that commercial on TV and it's very tempting. Be sure to give us a review after you have a chance to use it.
On Monday it was 90 degrees and I was outside washing my truck and struggling with my ancient rubber hose. It's dirty and tangled and heavy and a complete mess.
If the "pocket" hose is any good I'll get one.
By the way, tonight the temperature has dropped back down into the 20's.
I have one and I love it!! Sooo much easier to use.
I've seen that commercial, and if it works I'd love to have one. Let us know if it does!
I agree with you about hoses, they are not easy to lug around. Mine is still in the garage where I put it for the winter. Hopefully it will soon be warm enough for you to try the pocket hose out. I'll be looking to see how it works. What a great idea.
I want one too!
Hahahahahahaha I am in the boat with you. Mine is still under the motor home and never hooked up.(YET). It is not good for the motor home water supply, but should assist in the washing THERE OF! If I ever get the weather to wash, I will let you know. haha. Nice to share the boat. LOL
i am sucker #2! i bought one as soon as i saw it. i paid 19.99. i have not tried it yet but will this weekend. if it works, i might never go back to the regular ones.
It was hooked on that QVC one year and bought the craziest things at 3 AM. Could not even remember ordering things half-asleep until the boxes arrived. So, no, I do not buy things off TV anymore.
Now I am hooked on Ebay, but I do not make purchases when I am not thinking rationally. Ebay sells all the infomercial products usually at lower prices.
My track record with As Seen on TV products is not so great. Bought the PEDS Egg for removing calluses on my feet and it did nothing I could see to make the clauses disappear. Bought a dryer lint cleaner and it was no better than my vacuum attachment, but it removed a nice chunk of my finger when I was trying to assemble it.
I hope you have better success with your Pocket Hose. I go with that saying "If it sounds too good to be true", but statistically I wouldn't think they would all be duds....would they?
Hope your weather warms up soon. 75 degrees here & sunny today. The allergy drugs are sellin like hotcakes.
I looked at those today!!!! I'll wait until you plug it in (or screw it on) to see how you like it. It just seems to good to be true!
No, but I WANT ONE!!! Please let us know if it really works.
Can't wait to see if you like it. I have to lug heavy hoses around to water all my potted flowers. It's getting to be a bigger chore every year. I've seen these and wondered if they work!
Let me know how it works! I live in a condo and have little use for one but really curious if it works well.
I too watch TV in the wee hours watching all the informercials.
i used mine for the first time today and it was excellent! i hope it holds up and i will post it! magic!
Thanks for letting me know. I can't wait to use mine.
Jean got one and she barely got to use it before her life was upended by a family crisis. She seemed to like it, what little she used it I am thinking of getting one but my ubby is so old fashioned he won't use it.
