Good stuff….
Perfect foy my intended usage. Why buy OEM (expensive) windshield washer replacement hoses when this product fits perfectly and 25 feet will last a long time as well. Fast shipping as well. Arrived well packaged with no ‘kinks; it it either…

Does itâs job, butâ¦
The tubing does itâs job well. I run sponge filters off of a Top Fin air pump. The tubing, however, was extremely difficult to fit over my air pump output, my check valves, and my sponge filter. In comparison to the brand of tubing I used before, this one had a way smaller inner diameter. I had to hold the tubing under hot water for a while in order to jam it over the outputs.The price canât be beat and the tubing works great after the initial struggle, but if you donât mind spending a few more cents for ease of use, pick a different brand.

As advertised.
It’s tubing.Unless an issue comes up, this should be straight up.There was a bunch of old tubing that had gotten old so springing for some new stuff was a minor issue.

Inconsistent product
Wow, so the first time I got this it was awesome. It was slightly stretchy, very flexible, easily attached to everything yet didn’t pull off easily. I wish I had bought multiple packs.Second round, not a couple weeks later I received a totally different product. It doesn’t easily fit on anything. If I do wiggle it on anything it doesn’t go up very far on. I’m left with the tubing barely attached which is very uncomfortable. It got so bad trying to attach this to a gang valve that I would put a one way valve towards the end attaching to the valve then attach a piece of the flexible hose onto the other side of the one way then attach to the valve. Since the hose was super difficult to squeeze side by side onto the valve this method worked better.I need consistency, i’m building out additional tanks and changing things constantly. I’m more than happy to spend a little more on a consistent product… now I have to go try other products out hoping to find something like the original tubing I got here.No kidding I literally thought I ordered a different product and checked my orders to see that no, I indeed used “buy again” to order. Very frustrating, this added a lot of work to the fish room.HINT TO MAKE USEABLEHint to not toss this stuff…I try not to waste stuff so I figured out with a little heat I could shove a small chopstick iin there. As the chopstick increases in size I could slightly expand the end while it was warm. I used my hot air gun for arts and crafts. Hope this helps someone!

Mind blowing value. Have so much air line now lol. A lot smaller then most airline tubing so you may have to wrestle a bit with getting it on but this is a perk because when you get it on you must be very intentional to take it off.
