    I have only ordered from these one other time, and while it did arrive, i can not remember the timeframe, although i am pretty sure that it was less than a month.
    It was a wooden bowling set for €3 and the box arrived slightly battered, but the bowling set was perfect.

    Anyway, To drop the price down you need to use the code PIPE1

    I tried to stack the codes with a facebook 'like' code that was given to me. It does not seem to work. (The unstackable code is GAMISSLIKE)

    This looks similar on amazon UK
    https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B01DLI5V4C/ for £13.19 (€14.80) + Postage

    It is not the deal of the day but it is almost half price. I thought it was worth going for,

    Word of warning, I live in an area with good water pressure and bought a similar one from Homestore and More and it literally expanded by a metre....if that.

    I'd be interested to hear if others have had better experiences but mine was useless. It works ok as a normal hose but it does not expand and cannot use a sprinkler with it.

    I have used a few & they all work. But there have been complaints that some have exploded.

    Are you sure that you are using it properly ? You have to close the tap at the end so that the pressure expands the hose. Works fine with a sprinkler.

    Same here and from Homestore too.... as above and the pressure was very poor.

    Suppose it's no good for the car folks?

    Depends on how far the car is from the tap.

    I bought one to use with a pressure washer, to try reduce the amount of space it takes up - absolutely useless pressure - the inner diameter of the hose is tiny.

    “Roll it back”

    I bought one of these.
    Great for a long house when it expands. Don't count on doing anything that involves pressure washers though.

    Used them a few times. Crap. Get yourself a decent hozelock 30/50mtr reel from Amazon.

    mine leaked at the tap so never expanded, waste of money
