Title: Backpack or Hose reel
Post by: David Salkeld on April 09, 2013, 09:42:21 pm
Evenin All,

A couple of years ago I fought tooth and nail to try and prove Backpack was better than hose reel...............
Had a real banter with "Ground hog (think that was his user name?)






I now completely and utterly give up the fight and totally agree...........

Tank...Hose Reel.....pole..........simples.

Still got a backpack.....got its uses a couple of time a week

Agree 100%
Watched a mate with a backpack - so slow. Reel,  brush and get walking keching!!

I remember your very firm stance on the backpack/reel debate  :)

I also have a backpack which gets used about once a week - really good for where it is needed but not really practical or easy to use all the time.

Im half and half as have both and find for front only jobs the backpack is miles faster to use, if custy is home and wants backs doing id rather take backpack than trail muddy hose through.
