Product Description
Tired of watering the sidewalk and everyone else's lawn when you are trying to water your own? Get a soaker hose that distributes water evenly over your lawn...and only your lawn! 50 foot length Unique drip/sweating action distributes water evenly Use above or below ground Made from recycled rubber 7 Year Warranty
Amazon.com Product Description
Soaker hoses are the inexpensive, water-conserving solution to effective deep irrigation of gardens and beds. Tiny perforations allow water to seep out slowly into the ground, so less runs off and is wasted on sidewalks, driveways, and other people's lawns. Water also stays close to the ground to slake thirsty roots rather than create wet, mildewed or fungus-ridden foliage. Made from 60% recycled rubber, this highly efficient soaker hose operates via drip/sweating action and distributes water evenly across its 50-foot length. It can be used above or below ground and measures a hefty 5/8 of an inch in diameter.

 Good soaker August 25, 2008

At 25 ft this is a pretty decent soaker. It does it's job and stands up to staking in the ground. Comes with rubber gaskets too, which is nice.
 Deceptive adverising August 18, 2008

Although the Amazon website says that this product is 5/8 inch diameter, it is actually 1/2 inch. The packaging for the product doesn't even give a diameter. Perhaps that is why it cannot be sold in California where they have strict labeling laws. I really needed a new soaker hose and my local home supply stores were all out of 5/8 inch hose, so I just kept the product.
Poor quality July 29, 2008

Some people reported that "water literally pours out of many spots on the hose. This creates flooding instead of soaking". I totally agree. It happened to mine too. First time I turned on the water, I saw at least 4, 5 holes that water shot out as far as 3-4 feets. Over a week, I saw more and more holes!!! This really a piece of junks. Some one may think that because my water source may has too much pressure! No, I have a water pressure gauge that reads only 42 PSI which is low to nornal pressure. Comparing to the hose I bought at Walmart for only ~ $8, the Walmart's one is much better!
Be aware! Don't buy this hose.

Someone else mentioned that the holes are too big - water literally pours out of many spots on the hose. This creates flooding instead of soaking. Had to return it for refund. Either I received a defective product, or this hose is poorly constructed. Beware!

Near the end of one of the driest Summers in our area, our house foundation was at risk. After only an hour and a half, we had enough water to see the flooding in our basement we usually only see in the Spring monsoon. This product works.
