It takes time to get them "trained" to coiling in a large easy to roll up coil. We use these hoses everyday and love them. Because of the fact that they come from the manufacturer coiled in such a small roll, they are a little difficult to work with (hard to coil, won't lay flat) for the first few weeks. Once you've got them trained they roll up very easy and lay flat. They really seem to get better with use, and we wouldn't trade them for any other hose.
Color being Blue makes it easy to see and or identify the hose. Coils up easy for storage and perfect length for around the house use.
Hard to roll uo does not lay flat always a trip hazard. So its clear so do you think you will see the air, Who cares Get Goodyear flex.
it arrived damaged (with a hole in it) it kinked easily but it did lay flat. I can not beleive the high rating these get. I bought one because of the feedback. If you want a flat, leaky, kinky hose, I would highly recommend this product. you would do better buying 3 cheap ones.
The 50ft polyurethane hose beats rubber hoses hands-down when your using it in bigger spaces and far away from the compressor. Its light weight and durability really shine in this situation. However, the hose has a mind of its own when you're trying to coil/roll it back up and won't lay flat on the floor if there's the slightest twist. So when working in a tight space or smaller workshop, I'd recommend a rubber hose or spring coil hose.instead.
