The hose is fine and robust, some may be just too thick to use it and post childish post's instead.

I used the yellow gardiners pole hose for a good while, and in this cold weather it goes like wire! Stiff and horrible. But swapped to the aquadapter with thered and it is the best I've used.

Aqua dapter pole hose is probably the best out there unless you do not know how to coil it up properly, then it turns into spaghetti.

Aqua dapter gave me some yellow hose on Wednesday, smallest diameter pole hose I have ever seen and absolutely spot on!

There is a knack to reeling it up. Must disconnect the brush first and then it is pretty straight forward

Sometimes it can be frustrating when it coils up on itself but overall I find I prefer it to the only other pole hose I've used which is Gardiner yellow.

Who's Alex?

If you have a tap on the end which makes it heavy it is tough. But with just a connector on (beauty of using an aquadapter  ;) ) I just disconnect from the brush throw out the pole hose  so as it is fully outstretched and reel it. Simples!

Alex please make a good pole hose.

We have a new standard yellow pole hose which is a PVC & Rubber mix which we started selling this week on the website. This mix gives it great flexibility even in very cold weather. It is not suitable for hot water use though - we have another variant coming out in about 3 weeks' time for hot water use.

I am interested to see the feedback from our clients on this new hose.

The hose is fine and robust, some may be just too thick to use it and post childish post's instead.

It seems about 50% of people on this forum who have used it like it and the other 50% hate it!
Personally I tried it and couldn't get on with it, maybe there is a variation in production quality?
However even manufacturers keep trying to bring out new variations of pole hose, so it is apparent that there is not a pole hose currently on the market that suits everyone.
