schieffer is the best value 150 ft for 145 plus ship. so going to order that unless i hear horror stories

I red past post, still unclear, feedback before i order

all are rated 3000 psi, 250 degree

I think cobb has hose also

I do 95% tile, so 1200-1500 plus range

read raptor sucks, that out

been using neptune,



this will be first time, testing using straight 1/4 inch. i usally use 100 foot 3/8 then 1/4 whip

I have some Goodyear 3/8 twenty years old that I'm still using only on long runs and ONLY OUTSIDE the house though and also I don't have a live reel.
I think that 3/8 might give you some more life but 1/4 is nicer as far as ease of use.

I've had both versions of the sheaffer hose and both held up well for 2 years as lead lines. The skinny one just blew out but that was 4 years old...

I've had issues with color bleed off on the schieffer and had a bad piece of schieffer. We are ordering Neptune again

I will say we used Parker parflex 1035ht for plumbing inside the van and it is holding nicely....the Parker dealer is down the street from the shop so it makes it easy to have the hoses made to exact lengths. I didn't like the 'memory' on the parflex for cleaning purposes
