Couple of price drops (Limited Stock Only)
Patio by Jamie Durie 15m Premium Hose $5 (Save $15)
Patio by Jamie Durie 9L Watering Can $5 (Save $9)
In all fairness, almost all hoses on http://www.productreview.com.au receive less than 2 stars. Most of the complaints about the hose are about the fittings. If the hose quality itself is fine, then cut the crap fittings off and replace with regular fittings from your old hose (gardenia/pope/whatever). Though some reviews claim the hose is too stiff (<insert relevant penis joke here>).
Alternative from Bunnings - $5.79

I've used this hose before and it's fine. It certainly kinks, but if you have a hose winder this generally isn't a problem. If you just dump your hose in a pile on the ground, you'll spend more time un-kinking it than watering the garden.
Yep, $5 for a stiff hose which should last for years is a bargain if you pair it with some good connectors.
I like the fact that there is a post that combines ex-Chippendale Jamie Durie and "premium hose"
15m is a bit of a stretch.
Your puns are starting to sound a bit watered down =p
Hey, there's no need to hose 'em down over it ;-)
Jeez - don't know if I deserve that kind of spray
They are not good quality. If they are out in sun, they just get torn and start sprinkling.
Kinda like a Chippendale then?
A sprinkler AND a hose for $5? Now that's an OzBargain!
So it's not a good Jose
Pretty sure the mrs will be keen for Jamies hose.
Save your$5. I bought a 10m one a few months ago and only used a couple of times before it exploded under heat on one of the 40 degree days.
maybe you need to play with your hose a little more to relieve the pressure?
Exploding hoses? What's in your water (so to speak)? No wonder they rate it for "Age Group 18 Years +". You took it back and got one of the non-"Premium", non-exploding types presumably?
Perhaps the energy companies are already starting to supply gas and water more efficiently using the same pipes
I blame fracking (with good reason in some cases). Don't light up while hosing the garden.
Bongs… By Jamie Durie..
Wait, there are designer brands of garden hose???
If anyone wanted a a possibly better 15m hose on sale. I saw this at masters on clearance
Hozelock Flexi Hose 12.5mmx15m $12 (save $13)
https://www.masters.com.au/product/100080423/hozelock-flexi-…
Premium
That's a good way to add a few bucks to the price. Other than some idiot's name i mean.
Like others have posted: I bought a couple of the 10m one with accs for $5 last year.
Ok, they were only $5, but still… most useless piece of crap hose I have ever had! Even for the endorsement money, I can't believe that Durie would put his name on these!
The watering can is a good deal if you can find it. I bought one a few years ago and it's still in great shape even though it's been left outside. It's also got a handy measuring system so you can measure your liquid feed before adding water.
Tempted to get myself another one!
I could do with this. My hose seems to be shrinking as it no longer reaches where it needs to. Sometimes also when I use the hose the spray fitting doesn't seem to be attached properly.
I asked my teenage son if he knew anything about the hose and he just said 'Dude…. Bro's before Hose' - whatever that means - before sulking back to his trance music studio in the backyard.
LOL :)
Grabbed the watering can this morning. Looks great! The head fits extremely tightly to the outlet of the can. Seems to be good quality.
There were a few more at Mt Ommaney Big W, and one more of the $5 hoses. But after reading these comments I'd be avoiding the hose. :)
Was about to grab 2 of these even though I don't need it. Decided against it after reading the comments. Thanks for the warning ozbargainers.
Was going to post it this morning until I read the reviews: http://www.productreview.com.au/p/patio-by-jamie-durie-premi…
Though on clearance for $5 it isn't too bad I guess.
