B&Q 'Delux' garden tap kits
Had to fit an 'outside' tap for a client yesterday - except it wasn't
'outside'. Industrial unit, want to use a hose outside, tap required just inside the door. Popped into B&Q on the way to the job to be faced with 'outside tap kits' and 'deluxe outside tap kits'. £9:99 & £12:99 respectively. The 'outside tap kit' was in a clear plastic bag, proper bib tap, self cutting valve. The 'deluxe outside tap kit' was in a green printed bag. Bought the 'deluxe outside tap kit' for the extra few quid. What a pile of ****e. The 'deluxe bit was the inclusion of two cheap & nasty plastic hose connectors & an equally cheap & nasty spray gun. The self cutting valve was Ok, the tap was absolute crap, inlet on the top outlet on the bottom, or vice versa, skimpy thing that wouldn't last 5 minutes, bloody rubbish. Took it back. Avoid like the plague. -- Dave - The Medway Handyman www.medwayhandyman.co.uk |
