That sounds impressive! But are they significantly better than traditional rubber hoses? I'm on a tight budget and wondering if the extra cost is justified.

That's good to know! I've had issues with rubber hoses deteriorating over time, especially when exposed to chemicals. Does the Teflon lining really provide that much extra protection?

Absolutely! The Teflon lining not only enhances chemical resistance but also prevents the hose from absorbing odors or flavors, which is crucial for certain applications like food and beverage handling.

Another aspect to consider is flexibility. I've found that stainless steel braided Teflon hoses are much more flexible compared to rubber hoses, which makes them easier to work with, especially in tight spaces.
