Need to lengthen your drain pipe? This will work

I'm not entirely sure if a downspout extender likes it, but it's a five star product. I enlarged the flower bed and had to widen the drainage pipe. It worked. Its flexibility and expandability made work easier.

Pros
  • Inspires confidence
Cons
  • Not sure

Ok but note it's perforated

I bought this without seeing the perforations. If your goal is to keep water off your foundation, you should probably look for a non-perforated version of it. However, the product fully corresponds to the description. I can't blame the product for not reading the description carefully.

Pros
  • Best in its niche
Cons
  • I have no dislikes for it it's ok

Water leaks from small holes

For draining gutters. unfortunately there are 4 small holes between each tube segment. Water flows from holes. I have never seen water flow out of a pipe. Maybe it's just for showering. Even after you finish or bend the tube, it will not shrink back to its original shape. So be careful when expanding it.

Pros
  • useful item
Cons
  • useless functions

WORKS GREAT: gutters and accessories

I live in Oklahoma and we have severe thunderstorms and downpours and water in the flower beds is a big problem. So I found a solution: Use a drainage computer and wade halfway through the natural flow of water from the bed onto a concrete path, and then out onto the lawn. It's a bit of dirt inside, but overall it works great! dripping 6 inch quick shower into nothing flat!

Pros
  • Happy so far
Cons
  • Everything is fine

Not what I expected!

I didn't realize that the perforation had so many holes. When I tried to open it, the plastic at the perforation kept sticking to my shirt or scratching me. When I stick this in my gutter all the water comes out useless. I tried to return it BUT they want to charge me $5.99 when I only paid $7 and some change. So now I'm stuck with it.

Pros
  • Ideal for outdoor activities
Cons
  • Some disadvantages

Has several nail sized holes all around the hose

Love the length of this drain hose and the plastic material seems strong enough to withstand all seasons, unfortunately this hose has a few nail sized holes all around them for other reasons should have, but for me it really defeated the purpose I bought it for which was to drain water out of my house when in fact the water just seeps into the house through holes and drains.

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • thin
