Draper 15m Perforated Soaker Hose | 12 mm Gardening Irrigation Pipe | Heavy Duty Sprinkler | 2 1/2" Hose connectors |Two Way Coupling | 68261 Black

Having spent a large part of the spring tidying and clearing out our back garden, I decided to plant a LOT of Fruit Trees and Bushes as well as some seasonable vegetables. Although I do have some spare time at the weekend, I have almost none during the week, and so decided to set up an irrigation system. I connected up 4 of these and managed to link them all the way through all of the new plants and trees and it has been a great success. I cannot knock the quality and the price seemed very reasonable.

Purchased this as a heavy duty option to the cheaper hoses that break. This is strong plastic/ rubber but the holes/ perforations are poor!No water comes out at low pressures and if you turn up the pressure it is like a sprinkler but only out of some of the holes. It was a bad buy for me.

Pretty happy with this. Unlike some other reviews I don't see any problems with closed holes.Laid it out, plugged it and turned it on for about 30 minutes to give my raised beds containing cabbages, salsify and beetroot a really good soak.No closure for the end but a couple of sturdy cable ties did the job.Have just ordered another for spuds, leaks and courgettes :)

works well

I have much similar hose around the gardens, particularly the veg area. purchased this, but haven't realised this wasn't a seepage type hose, where water just drips out underneath the hose, but one with many small perforations which sprayed a mist above, side and underneath. Now positioned it underneath tall plants, rather than where it was purchased for. Just read the blurb on the website very carefully. initially thought to return item, but decided to keep it anyhow.

They looked good with all the trimmings to make it work.......well they do now after reworking the soak holes. There is a flaw either in the tool which is supposed to make the holes (there are quite a few) or the machine which is programmed to make the holes or the programme to tell the machine what to do. An indent has been made in the outer covering but has not pierced the same, which points to the machine either being not set up correctly, out of adjustment thru wear and tear or a dubious set up which needs replacing. Now I know the problem it's a tedious job to rectify, but we all know now, well we do, if everybody reads this.

Got this for my greenhouse as I was forever in there with a watering can. Linked it to a hose timer . Plants get watered regular with little waste

Doesn’t work! Only 4 holes in the whole length let out water. Unfortunately I didn’t find this out until I’d installed it on my veg beds. I now need to go through the whole length and use something to open the holes. I’ve wasted time and money on something that’s not fit for purpose.
