I winter in AZ...have had one of these hoses hooked to water supply at 45 psi since the end of September (2016). 6.5 months of 24/7 pressure. I used the hose on the way here and some of the parks we've stayed at had regulated pressure of 60 psi. No leaks or splits and half the length has been coiled loosely on the ground for that entire time. I have two others that I use weekly to clean up my SxS after runs in the desert. You can use them in all temperatures with no change in the ease of deployment or storage. I don't plan on going back to regular hoses any time soon. Oh, storage...I can put 75 feet of these hoses in the same space I used for 25 feet of white hose. Love 'em.
