Garden hose AWTools AW70290, 1.1 kg lightweight watering hose

AWTools AW70290 is a lightweight expandable garden hose designed for home and garden irrigation. Constructed with a latex core and durable outer fabric, the hose expands up to four times its original length under water pressure and returns to its compact form when the water is turned off. Weighing 1.1 kg and supplied as a set with quick connectors, a tap adapter and a 7-mode spray gun, this hose is intended for routine outdoor watering tasks and small-to-medium gardens where portability and easy storage are priorities.

Advantages

The hose combines a light overall weight with an expandable design that reduces storage space and improves handling. The latex inner tube provides flexibility and reliable water flow while the outer jacket resists abrasion and tangling. The set includes quick connectors and a universal tap adapter for straightforward attachment to garden taps, and the included spray gun offers seven selectable spray modes for varied watering needs. The design minimizes kinking, twisting and leakage under normal operating conditions.

• Lawn and garden irrigation in small-to-medium gardens

• Pet and patio cleaning
• Connecting to garden taps and spray nozzles for routine watering

How to use

Attach one of the supplied quick connectors to the hose end and secure the tap adapter to your garden faucet if required. Connect the hose to the faucet via the adapter and open the tap gradually to allow the latex core to expand to working length. Select the required spray pattern on the included spray gun and adjust water flow for the desired pressure. After use, close the tap, release water from the hose and allow it to drain and contract before disconnecting and storing the hose in a dry place.

Usage recommendations

For best performance and durability, avoid exposing the hose to prolonged direct sunlight when not in use, do not use with hot water or high-pressure pumps beyond typical household tap pressure, and store the hose drained and coiled in a shaded area. Inspect connectors and the spray gun periodically for wear and replace accessories if they show signs of damage.
