This is exactly what I expected. Its very tough and strong.

If you are having trouble managing your oxygen tubing, check out the O2Remote4 Wireless Oxygen Tube reel at www.o2remote.com

The last few batches of this product/tubing I bought has presented issues I didn't have during the past 2 years. Yes, the tubing is crush resistant (i.e. if you should step on the tubing, it doesn't restrict the air from reaching your nose), however, the tubing does kink up to the point of crimping and slows the air down significantly. It behaves like the old garden hose theory where you fold/bend the hose to where the water stops coming out of it. As a result, I have to check the line several times a day to make sure I'm getting sufficient air, and it's not always just one crimp--it has been 2 or 3, also. I didn't have this problem before, but it has become a regular event now and I need to know I can rely on my tubing to deliver oxygen to me. My oxygen FEV1 and lung capacity is 27%, so I think uou can understand my concern. Perhaps it has something to do with the manufacturing process, a different kind of plastic.. I don't know what it is.. I just know something is different than it was in the past. I haven't changed a single thing in my routine relative yo my oxygen, my movement around my house, etc. I get aggravated that I constantly have to unwind and unkink the cord and the severe crimps appear out of nowhere. I don't know what the answer is (if there is one), and I don't know if I'm the only one with this problem or not, but I need to rely on sources that can offer me reliable equipment. Now, if this is just something that happens to these kinds of materials and it's a case of "the nature of the beast", then I'll have to accept that, I guess, but it is frustrating wasting my money on something that isn't performing like it should. The little tubes on the nasal cannula always get twisted (sometimes tightly...really gave to pay attention to that, also). As I mentioned earlier...don't know if anyone else has this problem or not. If you have some feedback or suggestions about this matter, I'd appreciate your input. My oxygen situation isn't of much interest to anyone, but trust me, your products are literally my lifeline and it's important to me. Thank you for giving me a chance to share my experiences with you. As far as recommending this product to someone else, at the present time I am undecided...he product has a good point but it also has some negative ones.

This item is truly a bright green. It is much better quality than the tubing from my DMS provider. It lives up to the product description!

It’s hard to straighten out and tends to curl up.

Great quality. Would be nice if tubing didn’t get tangled

I like the length and I can move around freely but it curls up and twists constantly. Otherwise it’s great

Easy to navigate website. No issues.

I bought five of these on December 9th along with 10 cannulas. Order # 2794067. When I opened one of the 50 ft green tubing and put it on the machine along with one of the soft cannulas, the smell coming through them was so obnoxious I couldn't use them. I need to return this stuff!

great product fast service

Doesn't kink and lays flat.best I've ever used!

Direct home medical is now my go to oxygen supplies store! Love the salter green tubing

I use this length on my home concentrator as it gives me the freedom to move around the house, even out into the garage, and now, for some unknown reason, my oxygen supplier no longer will deliver this length to me. Their loss! I also like how fast that I can get this delivered.

It’s a good product just never get use to the way it always tangles

Got them within days they are a great quality of hose especially when you have a 100 lb dog laying on them. Getting wrapped up in i.

Crush proof tubing meets claims. A noted benefit is that tubing does not get crushed under furniture legs and is easily released if it gets caught. In addition tubing does not coil.

Needed to get a longer tubing line for my mother so she could access more rooms in her home. This was the perfect length to allow her to move freely without changing to her portable unit. Will be ordering again. Shipping was quick and we got just what we ordered.

I purchased the lavender before it did well. This last order of the green kinked in two days, and s.. I purchased 5 mistake!

Long enough that I can use all around my house
