A bit of a pain trying to get hose lengths into a net bag, I know iv'e just got rid of one, I much prefere round hose bags, can get 75ft in easily and even 2" bought mine from Ashbys £24.95 each a bit more expensive than the net but worth every penny

Paul Moss finds this is too big to get his hose in

Velcro straps or bungees i find are better than hose bags

Easiest to handle hose length is 25 ft, longer is awkward to coil.

Just bought 75ft of hose and a bag from A & M Cleaning Supplies in Watford. Can get whole hose in no bother. Bag has velcro straps which are much easier than zips. On special offer of just under £30 inc VAT.

I use laundry bags, the ones the industrial launders use they are just a big cloth bag with a pull string, ;D
