We've got five of them and I reckon they're the dog's b******s ::)

What are you guys doing with them? They're made of good thick steel with heavy brass cast fittings.

nothing at all !!  ;)

only had it one month,,,  notice a bad leak from the hose and reel coil.... unwound the whole lot .. to find the  " u bend"... nipple part where the hose connects.... split from top to bottom.... fine split...... but water spraying everywhere..... i dont like it at all....

it wobbles... if tou dont take all the hose out each time.... it melts together in the sun. and you have to get back to the reel to part the hose...

give me my 60 metre clear reinforced thinner stuff any day!

whinge over  :D :D
