Not sure as to why folks have such a hard time with the white hoses..
To make white hoses easy to deal with you get several SHORT hoses, add them together when needed. Only use the length you need and when done break them apart and they coil up very nicely.
I have two 10' and one 25'..
Many times I get away with using only one hose but if needed can extend to 45'.
Short hoses make life easier.
Yeah, I get it. That's definitely a logical approach. It's not my first choice though.
I swear I'm not a pessimist, but I don't like junctions (on just about anything). Every coupling to connect two hoses together is another chance for another leak. I'd rather have one 50' piece of hose that I can coil into a bucket, if I can.
