robert stephenson ii: For lawn sprinkling systems this probably is ideal tubing, so long as you stretch it out in the summer sun for an hour or so to get the curl out of the length. My mistake was I was going to use it as feed tube for my garden irrigation. It does work well in this scenario, but installing 1/4 dia drippers or 1/4 diameter tubing into it will be a large challenge. If not done with a clean puncture it will leak. Drilling a pilot hole will not work. Best method I came up with was a low volt soldering iron with 1/8 diameter tip. leaves a clean hole that will not leak but still hard to insert the drippers. I would consider a thinner wall tubing if buying for low pressure gardening.

Spaddy: Hard to get the hose to relax. It wants to hold the shape from being rolled up.

Frugal Internet Shopper: Hose arrives coiled very tightly for shipping, and the inner coils were kinked on those I ordered (all coiled the same).
I was unable to get these kinks out by straightening the hose for days, and even heat would not assist in removing flow restricting kinks from the hose. This issue left only about 1/3 of the coil without kinks and usable.
Perhaps a pressurized warm fluid would fix these kinks, but not 100% flow out of the box.
The hose itself is very flexible and reasonably thick walled. The bits I salvaged have served well.
This is either a production (coil diameter) or packing problem, the product itself is as advertised.

RyanYWG: Worked very well for the pump I intended to use for, Hydrofarm AAPW160 160-GPH. The tubing was very stiff and came in a roll almost as pictured but less sloppily in a shrink wrap. I used very hot water to soften it up to straighten up somewhat. Had to do two rounds until it was a lot easier to handle. It fit nicely on the pump with no extra needed. Would buy again.

Zapp Brannigan: It kinks a little easy, but works ok, Using it with pump to heat above ground pool in summer via the power of the sun.
