Self Sinking Aeration Hose,3/8 inch 100 Feet Weighted Pond Aerator Hose with 8 Stainless Steel Hose Clamps and 4 Copper Menders used for Pond Aeration Kit Hoses

### Editorial Review The Self Sinking Aeration Hose, designed for effective pond aeration, has received a mixed reception from users. Several customers express frustration over key issues, notably the hose's propensity to burst and its failure to sink as intended. Some reviewers reported that the hose heats up due to the hot air produced by compressors, leading to ruptures just inches from the compressor itself—a situation that could be mitigated by using additional copper flex tubing for cooling. While some users appreciate the flexibility and adequate diameter of the hose, others encountered significant manufacturing flaws, such as internal blockages from glue and rubber remnants, which hampered airflow. Moreover, there were concerns about the quality control of the product, with reports of unsealed splices and inConsistent sinking capabilities. On a positive note, there are users who have had satisfactory experiences with the hose, finding it functional for their aeration needs. Those who managed to find the right setup, including employing additional components to tackle heat issues, reported that the hose performed as expected. Overall, while the Self Sinking Aeration Hose may serve adequately for some, potential buyers should be aware of significant quality control issues and the need for potential modifications to fully utilize its intended function. ### Pros and Cons **
