Last year, we purchased an ultra-long Hozelock hose pipe to run down to the vegetable garden along with a Hozelock multi spray watering gun. In addition to this we also purchased two auto reel Hozelock hose pipes for the front and back gardens. The hose pipes have been great, but we can’t say the same thing about the quality of the watering gun. It’s only about seven months old, and when we went to use it this weekend, the gun has split along the front of the handle and is leaking water like crazy. Check out the short video clip.
