Well my old hose pipe gave up the ghost so we decided to get a new one, hubby did the surfing on the net not much between places really just a case of which one, he went down to Homebase in the end and when he got to the aisle it said 15% off all garden supplies, so hubby picked a hozelock hose off the shelf plus a 9 different spray nozzle and went to the till, the hose price was £39.99 and the nozzle £6.99, ping went the till and £46 said the assistant….err no said hubby its 15% off….oh that was Friday and Saturday said the assistant…..not what it says on the shelf said hubby….shrug said assistant…..well i’ll take it back then said hubby…..assistant followed him back to the shelf where lo and behold the sign was still there, oh said assistant as its still there we will honour the agreement, should think so grumbled hubby (LOL) so hose was £33, it pays to argue!!!

Yes it all comes as one package Louise, it lifts off the wall easy too the hose comes out of that gadget that moves side to side if you see what i mean! its a lot easier to use than the old one.
I saw that one Hollyeves but its too low for me now can't bend without going dizzy so this on the wall one is great, that one is good value though

I 'do' see what you mean and i definately want one !
My other half said i'd pull the whole thing off the wall as i pull the hose out but they're bolted on aren't they ..... and i'm no goliath so it looks like he's talking rubbish, grrrr.

.I `m enviouus Sk, mine is on a frame but not fastened to the wall and its a right pain sometimes as it can get tangled, usually when I`m right down the bottom of the garden..Your hubby was correct in demanding they stand by their offer,....

Good for you !
This looks just the thing i want .... silly question now ..... do you buy all that as one package, Sk, or do you have to buy the container/housing separate to the actual hose ?
