Hey folks found this deals seems like a good price. They are usually $7.79 each. Gardenia is probably the best brand in this category sold at Bunnings.
I scored a bunch of Hills branded 12mm stop valve for the same price and i was happy! I think Bunnings no longer sells Hills? Maybe Bunnings is dropping the Gardena line?

These are the quality stop valve system. I only discovered these existed 2 years ago I was a bit slow to the race lol. It comes in handy when washing the car if i need to change attachments i don't need to walk back to the tap. Yes i am that lazy!

These items are also reduced to $1.50

  I went looking for a Gardena sprinkler and Broadmeadows didn't have any stock…. I thought they might be dropping Gardena too, after the other recent sales I've seen. However when I went to Coburg store, they had plenty of stock of Gardena products (but still had the 3 piece hose end kit on clearance)…

  Masters were the retailer for the Hills line.

      I found the made in Germany ones are still quite expensive.
      The $2 ones appear to be made elsewhere (some could be made in Australia, some could be made elsewhere). That's why these are cheaper. Quality still appears to be better than the even cheaper ones (but compared to Gardena ones made in Germany, you can tell the difference). The warranty period is also different (these $2 ones only have 2 years warranty).

      Some bunnings don't appear to have any stock, whereas some have lots. I wouldn't rush and buy them because these are not the German ones discounted, but the more price friendly Gardena products.

  These are good but even better to get permanently attached to the hose.

  Had to travel to Bunnings Bankstown Airport to pick up some of the Gardena 12mm Adjustable Jet Hose End Nozzle as all the other store in my area are out of stock.

  Also picked up some of these but forgot to post on Oz.

  The following were also $2

  Maybe Bunnings is dropping the Gardena line

  does the Gardena 12mm, 13mm or 18mm all fit on a regular hose?

  • 

    aussieprepper on 14/03/2018 - 00:25

    Hey i think the 18mm fitting will be to big on a regular hose. The 18mm connectors are used for a 18mm hose. The other 12 and 13mm fitting should work fine on a standard hose. Standard hose is usually 12mm.

  A tip for anyone who wants standard (non-stop) hose connectors: just buy these ones and punch out the stop valve. A bought a bunch of these. Have use a few as stop valve connectors and others I did not want the stop valve so punched out the stop valve. The water pressure does drop off somewhat with these connectors.

    Just came back from Alexandria to post this. They still had plenty of stock since they weren't on display and had to pull new boxes off the top shelf. Bought 10. Cheers OP.
