Review on Metabo HPT 115155M: Superior Professional Polyurethane for Optimal Results by Jon Larjin

Purchased Hitachi 115155 50ft air hose in November 2017 from Revain. For PE tubing I find it exceptionally flexible with minimal loose coiling when routed. The only criticism was that the hose's rosette end was inexplicably tied in a loose square knot within the spiral hose, creating an unnecessary permanent kink that persists to this day. Needed a different hose so got a Metabo version today (same part number plus M at the end) advertised as the same hose but with a new name. BUT, the new one is at least twice as stiff, if not three times as stiff as the first one. Curl like a slinky. Paid $10 more for less than half the quality/usefulness out of the box. These modern times. The only consistent thing is they STILL tie that loose square knot at the end instead of just using a fourth zipper, so the renamed model still has the same kink at the female end. Come on makers, exercise and use a zip tie, not a knot. Increase the price by a penny to cover it.
