is it a good water hose for lawn use?

Yes it is a good watering hose. I use it in front of my house where my faucet is located rather than dragging out fifty foot of hose from the back yard.

The one I bought is only 10 feet long and I bought it because it is safe to drink from and I need to fill large pots to boil water outside. I think you can get something less expensive and longer for your lawn.

I have had mine outside for 3 months now in the summer sun of south Texas and it still looks and feels new. I use mine to do everyday jobs in the yard. I purchased it because I have a pet dog named Tank that gets his water from this hose. I bought 2 just to have extra length just in case. Got 100 feet total now. I could wash my neighbors car in his driveway but I'm not gonna do it. He didn't invite me over for that BBQ and beer last weekend.

I can't really say. I use mine for indoor use and don't know how it would perform under ultra violet light or temp extremes. Apologies.

Yes. The hose is flexible enough to wrap around. I have it attached to the rail of my deck with 1-90 degree bend in the hose. I do recommend going with this model as we originally purchased the model with the plastic nozzles and they failed after only one season in the sun.

It is certainly not the hard rubber style of soaker hose that gets brittle and breaks. It is very flexible.

I think so, use it for pumping water from a lake into my lawn irrigation system, works very well.

Yes, I currently use it in my garden. It is not lined with lead like other hoses, and it fits on the water spout. I personally feel more comfortable using this hose to water my plants. You are what you eat.

That's what I use it for as well as taped it to a 100 ft garden hose. It works really well on both.

As said this is a Drinking Water hose, it has the same ends as a regular hose. You might look at a garden hose.

Attachments are same as any other hose. I would be curious how well it could operate a sprinkler as it has much less pressure and volume than a regular hose.

I wouldn't say it's good for that because of the pressure. Great for garden watering and the hose is light so easy to stretch out long distances. I don't think you can add another attachment to the hose to make the pressure better though...so I wouldn't suggest it for the patio washing.

I bought this for use on my boat away from the dock. I haven't used it hardly at all. It remains stowed away. I recall it being pretty much like a garden hose, one piece fitting with the ring that turns to tighten. Sorry I can't be more helpful.

I use hoses to water horses and the arena. The hoses are heavy, non-kinkable rubber. I would have to say yes.

If this comes with two garden hose adapters (mine only had one, but that was a long time ago) then Pete B is correct, hose is all you need for moving water. If you use 5/8 garden hose in and out you will lose some potential from the pump but that may be OK for your application. I didn't try this because I wanted to put a foot valve on mine to make priming easier. Who knows, maybe somebody sells a 5/8 foot valve.

It is a garden hose, it will withstand normal water pressure. I'm not sure what is meant by "high pressure". And T. Baine is right, it is a great hose. I've had identical Sears hoses that are still good after 20 years.

Yes this hose will indeed work and would possibly be considered overkill if that is all you intend to use it for.

I ordered the attachment to hook up to a water hose...However I just fill it with a Sprinkler can every other day...not a big problem.. I could hook it up sometime..but for now I am happy.

not for garden hose but you can get adapters at hd or lowes to accomodate std threads for hose, use mine for a pump on a rain barrel. works great!

Definitely, this thing is great. Uses a bit of water so attaching a hose is your best bet. Go for it you won't be sorry.
