Don't scrimp on air hoses. January 31, 2004
Bob Feeser (Springfield, PA USA)

The advantage to this Goodyear hose is that it is made out of industrial grade rubber instead of vinyl. What that means is that when you are using it instead of being stiff like vinyl it remains soft and flexible, so it lays flat on the floor. This is especially a problem in colder temperatures. It's great for coiling as well, it doesn't fight you.
The real frustration of using a vinyl hose is that it can stand up while moving across the floor, high enough to snag on things, or even pull something onto the floor. The hose is in a coil, then instead of simply uncoiling, the vinyl has a memory and wants to look more like hoops moving over the floor.
This hose comes in 3/8" which is the most popular size. The 1/4" hoses restrict air flow, which is especially important over a 50 foot run.
All in all highly recommended. The advantages are worth it even if it was twice the price.
Good airhoses are worth a little extra money March 18, 2005

A cheap airhose (made from PVC, usually) is a pain. They stay coiled when you uncoil them, and stay straight when you coil them. A high quality rubber hose makes a huge difference. It sounds trivial, but it really makes managing hoses easier. When I'm in the shop, or out on a job I want to be able to run the hose out quickly, and coil it neatly when I'm done. A high quality rubber hose like this one makes it easy.
My Goodyear hoses have been in service for a long time and are tough enough to last for many more years.
I also appriaciate the fact that it's made in the USA.
One extra tip - lay out your hose, then connect it to the tank. If you connect it to the tank when it's coiled, it'll fill with air and be harder to uncoil.
Best Air Hose on The Market February 3, 2003

I recently puchased one of these 50' hoses for my new DeWalt twin tank air compressor. This is by far the best 50' hose on the market today without question. It remains totally flexible in cold temperatures unlike those vinyl coiled hoses on the market. It also lays flat when in use and does not coil up in places. You don't have to worry about tripping over this hose. The couplings at each end of the hose are very high quality and the yellow color is very noticeable to keep others from snagging the hose and tripping on it. The 50' lenght is perfect to allow you to move about freely and not relocate your compressor often. This is a great product and the price is right. Get one of these. You will be glad you did.
Great Hose, good durability March 21, 2006

I have had this hose for 5 years now. I use it with a Porter-Cable finish nailer and for misc tasks like inflating car tires or using a air blowing nozzle. It is always flexible, even when the garage gets cold. It is a little scuffed up, but still works great and has not lost any of its flexibility. It is always easy to coil. Another advantage, this is cheaper than a long heavy duty extension cord for the compressor. It is also a lot easier to run a long hose than to keep moving the compressor around the house as I do projects. A longer hose keeps the compressor further away from you to keep the noise level down.

These goodyear hoses are terrific. I would recommend them to anybody interested in purchasing air hoses. They are extremely flexible, durable and perform better then plastic hoses. It's definately worth the investment. I bought two!
