Previously had an extendable hose of another make which only lasted several months, replaced that one with a 15m t-hose 3 years ago, been left out all year round and used every other day in summer but was a bit short really so got pulled at quite a bit eventually failing at the tap end , replaced it with the 30m t-hose and so far seems much better as it reaches where i need it to and the new style spray gun seems ok.
