It fits snug on the corner of buildings and car tyres and if you are on someones lawn and there are flowers or dog muck in the way the tent peg goes in the middle.  Its worth it just not to get dog muck all over your hose ;D

I saw them the other day, cant help thinking there would be little red corner thingy's all over the place, great idea but sure to get left behind everywhere.

I really don't see the point in these... It would add loads more time setting up and packing away to each job!

Hi all
The slip'n' slide has taken 5 months and  more than  few thousnd pounds to get it launched
every day i use it and amamazed at it uses
yesterday on a job i had to park the wrong way for my hose to come of the back
( i have a truck mount ) after giving it some thought i put the slippy in the lawn just at a slight angle and started to pull the hose around it
I went from the back of my van to the futherest point without having to even go back to the van once ,
usually if i cant park on this job the right way it take me ages to sort out the hose .
the distance of this pull of hose is about 34mtrs
I have now sold a few and would love to have some feed back on how you guys are getting on with them

Thanks Malc
There is something similar available in my local pound store, round and green with a built in spike to push into grass or soil, but cannot be used to get hose round tyres or buildings like that one.
Ive also seen them but i thought if i could get somthing that would do all the job we need it to do in one tool ,so was born the slippy ;D

   I thin kI may have some and glue a couple to the back edges of my van, that is where the hose usually snags, between the bumper and the lights.

Wow that was quick service they came this morning, I must say they look substantial and robust certainly not thin n cheap looking I'll try them out later

My only criticism is the lack of receipt/invoice if it was only a couple of quid may not have been concerned but it is £18 afterall

Maybe you could send me one please

Chris

Hi Andy@w.c.s  :)

good to see the slip n slide is taking off fast, as you know i went to the show yesterday and immediately the chap from facelift remembered me from the nec and asked how the slip n slide was going on. He asked me if i had got a sample with me he said his mate in scotland i think it was cleantech but not sure, he said he would be able to sell loads also window cleaning warehouse are showing interest and remembered your product well. 8)

good luck

Brett

Got mine Tuesday, was not too sure but for £18 it was worth a try.

Must say they are worth it. I use microbore & have made my job alot easier where the tyres are concerned.

The product could do with being made heavier. It's fine on grass because it can be secured with tent pegs but on hard surfaces it dosen't stay in 'situ' (it slips out) when pulling hoses around it so I'm attaching mine to a breeze block then it won't move!

I agree,

It has saved alot of agro when it comes to brick corners and car tyres in the last few days - could even get me another house a day on some of my round. Haven't used it around flower beds or dogs poo yet.

Great product. Well worth the investment. Superb delivery service as well.
