    I've never seen one & I'm not sure cos if you look at the multi picture, you will notice that the whole hose fits in the palm of your hand.....................

      My sister-in-law has one of these and she really likes it. It works pretty much as advertised: turn on the water and it expands to its full size, turn it off and it compacts again as it empties.

      But I don't like it, for at least two reasons:
      - With a proper hose on a reel, you just unwind as much as you need then use it. With these expanding jobbies you get the full length every time.
      - Once contracted, it's still a right faff to get it tidy again, either in a neat coil or stuffed into a bucket. So itt ends up being left as a garish, untidy heap on the patio.

        It expands oK but as you use it, it contracts so you have to wait for the pressure to build up again so make sure you get a length well in excess of the max reach you are looking for.
