Which uk supplier did u use and how much for what length? If you dont mind me asking.
I saw perrys vid on it when he first advertised it, it looks good. Initially i think all his products all over the odds in price but i think on pole hose provided it lasts and does what it says then its worth that little bit extra.
Cheers for info.

It's 0.69p a FOOT
£5 postage

So for 30 ft I  paid £25.40
Not cheap but well worth it IMO

I bought Rhino 🦏 Tube from david kemp via Facebook messenger and 07979966041 .
It's not on his website yet as demand been high .
Colours I chose from was green , blue and orange .

Side point, ive stopped using gooseneck valve from gardiner. With a heavier brush i needed to tighten the grub nuts. After a couple of days usage, it never really switched the flow off properly. So i thought i would take apart and look, following gardiners vid on it. The small spring has got lodged in the mechanism so i need to spend some time faffing to get it out. So untill my time schedule changes, ive gone back to tap valves. They lasted me  nearly 2 yrs

contact Gardiner, I had the same problem. Sent it back and was faulty. They sent me a new one, no problem since.

Hopefully Gardiners can also source it?
I've been using the blue Exceed for months now, tuff stuff but still awkward at times.

I couldn't do with that. It kinks to easy

I use Ex-Ceed blue hose. Not happy with it, but the best for univalve, as it has to be none stretchy

I use the Gardiner pole hose with univalve with no issues

Is this finally a hose that doesn't kink or end up like electrical wiring !. I've used all season hose, orange hose, now have blue exceed and it still kinks and doesn't lay flat. Its always baffled me how they can produce a non kinking reel hose, but for a few mm less they can't produce a non kinking pole hose ?. Hopefully this stuff is good ??

Rhino tube is great in the winter but too supple and too easy to pop out of push fit connections  when it warms up.
