Solid material, like any Gardena, but the hose is really hard; suddenly, it is very difficult to reach the advertised 10 m or so forcibly. And it should not have plants or object between the place where the watered and water supply, as the hose, because of its rigidity, stretches and reverses all that he will in its path. With the exception of storage (fast and compact), I find that a normal hose is more flexible and easier to use.
