hi matt

the blue is the best for our use, as it is very flexible ,even in the cold

instead of using a tap you can just pinch the pipe,

if you get some buy it in bulk as its getting harder to get hold of it at a

decent price

the blue is a lot more pliable than the clear matt

i find the clear all right in temps of 10 deg plus but when its cold

its a pain. Rolling Eyes

just posted this on the academy site matt.


well i have had a brilliant day with this hose jeff

nice to have a hose that behaves itself in the cold

dont know how durable it will be , just have to wait and see

first impressions , great bit of kit and well worth it

Just had delivery of their 300ft roll for £44.66 inc delivery. Its different to my old blue algarde, which you could see the water going through. This one is totally opaque and a brighter light blue. Have cut the last 30ft bit off the roll as its got flattened within the roll. So whats left is approx 270ft, using the small flojet I am getting a flow of approx 1/2 pint or 300ml with the hose partly unrolled approx 70 ft.You get slightly better flow with the hose unrolled. It all fitseasily into one small hozebox cartridge roll.
I reckon 200ft will do me so will cut some off tomorrow.
How you getting on with yours Mike ?
