Saw this on Masters Catalogue (20th Aug - 26th Aug). Garden hose 15mx12mm for 5.80. Felt it was a good deal considering the fact that I bought 5m one from Bunnings for 5$ sometime back. Hope this helps someone this spring/ summer :)

Agreed. That's why I buy the cheapish ones with long warranty so at least I can return it. The ones without warranty only last a year, but the ones with seem to be a higher standard lasting me years in the sun, and are still only ~$13.
I only use the cheapies - find they last for a few years - for 5 bucks I reckon they are good value .
I changed the fittings with hoselink stuff last time they were on special here.
It does it's job and I can always replace it with another one in 1-2 yrs time. Getting at a price of a Coffee :) wouldn't mind at all !
the cheapo $6? chinese hoses that bunnings sell are really nasty. they easily burst and the fittings pop off. i wouldn't recommend them.
I have bought cheap houses in the past and they are aggravating to use. So I bit the bullet a couple of years ago and bought a Toro hose from bunnings. I can't remember the model name but it is red/clear/white. It will usually twist itself out of a kink, easy to wind, doesn't curl up, has brass fittings. Best hose ever and well worth the investment.
Wish I'd bought some cheap houses.
My house has brass fittings. Not red/clear/white though.
Blasted autocorrect…..!
I'm at a point in my life where I no longer buy cheap hoses. However the expensive ones are so thick and stiff it's ridiculous. Go mid-range.
Thick and stiff.
I must be expensive.
Bunnings equivalent is $5.79. Is always this price. Bought one a while ago for a temp hose until I could get a hose reel on special. Hose is ok, but fittings are pointless. Water sprays out from every connection point. Replaced them with some pope fittings as I had them laying around and now works a charm.
http://www.bunnings.com.au/aqua-systems-12mm-x-15m-garden-ho…Stay away from these. I had one which kept popping from the socket. As well as it expands as the pressure builds.. You rather spend a bit more and go for a 10-15$ Pope hose which lasts long and POP FREE….
Not a bargain, standard price at Bunnings, I bought a few on the weekend (Knowing they won't last forever)
Thus is the standard price. I bought one and it'd a POS but can't complain for the price. The fittings leak, the hose kinks and mine also exploded and split lengthways. Within a few days it turned black too. Lol.
Don't know about this particular one but you generally get what you pay for with garden hoses so this will most likely kink like a mofo and go brittle out in the sun and start perishing and spring leaks
