Strong chemical smell.

Very strong chemical smell so I didn't use it. I've tried soaking and rinsing the hose several times but the smell is still there.

Pros
  • 8 feet long
Cons
  • volume

It is twisted: Air Pump Accessories

Large areas of the hose have been flattened/twisted due to packaging. I was able to loosen the flattening a bit with steam but not completely. Silicone usually bends easily because it is very malleable. If you want a tube that will hold its shape better I would go with vinyl.

Pros
  • Age Group Description: All Life Stages
Cons
  • Cord is shorter than others
